Is this right for your child?
Science can become difficult when one topic moves on before the last one has properly settled. Sometimes the issue is the content itself. Sometimes it is knowing how to apply that knowledge in the exam.
This is right if your child is...
- ✓ Finding Biology, Chemistry or Physics difficult
- ✓ Struggling to keep up with Combined Science
- ✓ Losing marks on calculations, practicals or longer questions
- ✓ Preparing for mocks, final exams or a GCSE Science resit
- ✓ Doing well but aiming for a higher grade
This isn't the best fit if...
- You are looking for group classes or cram sessions
- You want someone to complete schoolwork for your child
- You are simply looking for the cheapest tuition available

Robert has worked skilfully with Fleur over the past nine months, growing her engagement from just 30 minutes a week exploring conceptual ideas she enjoyed, to 3.5 hours of focused GCSE preparation. He adapted each session to her energy levels and how her brain was working on the day. After being out of school for two and a half years, she is now confidently looking forward to resuming more of her studies. Robert has been a wonderful first step in rebuilding her education, and I'm deeply grateful to him.
Helen S.
Our daughter has always been academically strong, but you took her further than any school ever had. Her tutor challenged her thinking, broadened her reading, and expected real intellectual independence. It felt like university-level thinking, years early.
Claire and Tom H.
Tom was completely overwhelmed in the run-up to exams - anxious, overthinking everything, convinced he was behind. His tutor helped him slow things down, and actually feel in control again. The stress eased, his confidence came back, and exams stopped feeling like a crisis. It has made a huge difference to our whole household.
