Approach to tutoring:

Sessions will be tailored to students’ individual needs within a friendly, open and efficient learning environment. Lessons, resources and questions are pre-planned around my students and I use questioning and relaxed assessment during tutorials to make sure the maximum amount of progress is made. By finding areas of weakness and gaps in knowledge, students can be lead to their full potential.

Testimonials:
From George Alford (5/5) (A Level Physics)
"Made the Difference"
Needed an A for university and ended up getting an A*. Says it all really. Great teacher, puts everything across really well and in different ways so you really get the grasp of it. Gives vital exam techniques which really pay off and was exactly what I needed. Would highly recommend to anyone if you are considering getting a tutor.

From Shane Hornsby (5/5) (A level Physics)
"An Excellent and Helpful Tutos"
Andy Tutored a friend and me for around 14 lessons this year after we both underacheived in our january A2 physics exams. I received a D in january and really struggled to understand where the complex points of Physics came from. But within the first couple of weeks of having Andy, my basic understanding of multiple areas in physics was enhanced greatly. He was extremely helpful, went through things in great detail, but also ensured you understood the basics and made sure everything was clear to you before moving on, no matter how long it took, he made sure you understood it. This was really helpful and made advancing through the topics really easy and clear. Plus he helped to ensure you remembered your learning even after the lesson by sending me multiple question sheets, helpful animations and useful reading resources that really helped to solidfy my knowledge. He made learning really efficient and also gave me a huge confidence boost when i started to grasp areas that i previously couldn't attempt, which helped me to advance easier and i feel i learnt more that i probably needed to pass the course. Needless to say Andy is an excellent tutor, and i would strongly reccommend him to anyone who needs help in the sciences and mathematics, no matter what your level, as he'll ensure you advance at your own pace and ensure you know the stuff, and his lesson planning and organisation of lesson also really helped making the learning easy and quick. But i think my results speak for him, as i got an A in my physics A levels, only several marks off an A-star, and i am now going to Manchester University. Thank You Andy, you helped get me through this course!

From Susan (5/5): (A-Level Physics) My son found Andrew to be an excellent tutor. He has a very good understanding of the course syllabus and feels much more confident as he prepares for his physics exams.

From Valerie (5/5): (A-Level Physics) Andrew is professional, reliable and everything you would wish for from an excellent tutor. He has brought the subject to life for my son and he is now much more confident about his forthcoming A2 Physics exam.
I am so impressed with my son's improvement in Physics that I am inviting Andrew back in September to tutor my daughter in GCSE Maths.

From Karen (5/5): (GCSE Chemistry) From the first session, Andrew's confident and friendly manner created an immediate rapport with my daughter. His approach to turtoring is very student centred, he explaines material in novel and interesting ways and he has given my daughter much confidence in her studies.

From George (5/5): (A-Level Physics) Exactly what we wanted and is preparing two of us very well for A level physics exams. I would recommend this tutor to everyone.

From Zachary (4/5): (A-Level Physics) Very good tutoring session with lots of help and bettering my understanding on A2 physics. More expensive than other tutors which is why only a 4 rating otherwise it would be a definite 5. The referral money back policy is a good idea

Reply from Andrew: Since this feedback I have reduced my rates slightly. Further discount available if appointments are arranged for before 4pm, or if you travel to me. I may still be more expensive than other tutors but I am a fully qualified teacher and I believe that my skills as a tutor more than justify the extra cost.

From Mark (5/5): (Secondary Maths) Excellent service so far. Andrew has been prompt, curteous and has 'reinvigorated' our daughter's interest in both maths and science.
