KIND WORDS ABOUT MY TUITION

“My daughter studied history 1:1 with Stuart for the six months before her GCSEs. She’d been in hospital and out of school and had missed out on a lot of the syllabus. She was motivated but lacking confidence and anxious at the prospect of her GCSEs. 
Stuart was incredibly kind and supportive and an absolute specialist in his subject. He helped my daughter catch up on the missed content, reassured and built her confidence. He seemed to really understand her particular difficulties. My daughter went on to achieve a 9. Thank you Stuart! ”
