Edexcel (A), Edexcel (B), AQA, OCR, WJEC and International A-Level (IAL). I know each specification and its mark schemes in detail.

Yes, and I teach it deliberately. Most students are taught KS3 methods they later have to unlearn: shortcuts that break down at GCSE, notation that fails at A-Level. Having taught everything from KS3 to Further Maths, I teach techniques from day one that carry through the entire journey, so nothing ever needs relearning. It's how strong KS3 students become effortless GCSE students, and how my Year 9s sit GCSE two years early.

I tutor online only, and I consider it the better format: video call with live iPad screen sharing, so students see every diagram and model answer drawn in real time and keep all the notes. Resources are seconds away, no time is lost, and it works anywhere in the world.

Some students are; many aren't, and pushing an unready student early does damage. I assess honestly in the first sessions and tell you straight.

This is the heart of my work. "I'm not a maths person" is almost never true, and I've watched students go from dreading maths to choosing it at A-Level.

Faster than most families expect. Even the first few sessions bring a real jump in confidence and clarity: the student understands exactly where they are, the level they should be performing at, what examiners are looking for, and precisely what it will take to close the gap, with a revision plan built around it. From there, multi grade improvements between mocks and finals are common among committed students, and I have taken students from a D to an A* in the final examination

Every session is hyper personalised to the student's needs. A typical hour combines targeted content coverage with exam-style questions worked under pressure: technique coaching, immediate feedback, and accelerated learning in the areas that matter most for that student. Confidence and belief building runs through all of it, and homework is set for the week ahead.

Earlier is always better, but I also specialise in late-stage intensive preparation if exams are close.

Yes, many of my students board at schools such as Eton, Harrow and Marlborough. We schedule around the school timetable, and I plan tuition content around what they are covering at school.

Yes, including complete delivery of the full A-Level Economics syllabus from scratch. Homeschooled students I have taught this way have achieved A*s.

Yes. I have extensive experience supporting students with dyslexia, dyspraxia, ADHD, dysgraphia and other learning differences, and I'm trained in a range of teaching techniques, so the approach adapts to the student rather than the other way round. I find how each student learns best, and teach that way.

Small group sessions can be arranged, for example friends or students of similar level preparing for the same exam. Contact me to discuss.

I have worked with high profile families throughout my career, including well known public figures. Privacy and discretion are absolute.

All payments are made at least 48 hours before the first session, in order to confirm the lesson slot. Payment is by bank transfer.

Lessons cancelled within 24 hours of the session are charged at the full rate, as this doesn't leave enough time to offer the hour to another student.
