We are extremely happy with the Maths and Physics sessions that Greg is providing. His communication is excellent, he responds very quickly to emails; he also makes every effort to be as flexible as possible. Greg's planning is thorough and comprehensive, and he always keeps us updated regarding progress. Many thanks!
From Amanda
Helping our son nail some concepts in his GCSE maths. Now his dyslexia is not a barrier, Greg worked out how to help within his first session. Our son is keen to continue which is testament to Greg’s support.
From Catriona
I approached Greg to assist my son with both his maths and physics GCSEs. At the time my son's target grades were an 8, but with lock-down learning his grades were wavering. He found Greg's style very engaging and his highly organised use of technology meant they covered a lot during the sessions, not just learning but also exam techniques. My son is delighted as he went on to achieve a 9 in both subjects.
From Iryna
For several months, Greg was supporting my daughter with her Further Maths GCSE, as well as giving her a brief introduction to a range of topics in Philosophy. We found his tuition to be very helpful and engaging. The sessions were always well-planned, and communication was excellent. My daughter enjoyed all of her sessions and would always look forward to her next class. I would especially emphasize Greg's ability to explain complex topics in a very clear and compelling way; it is certainly one of his biggest strength. I certainly recommend this tutor to other families. Thank you, Greg.
From Elizabeth
Best tutor I have ever found. My son needed help with Further Maths A level. Greg was well prepared, methodical and very thorough. My son said he explained difficult concepts in a calm and clear manner which made them easier to understand. He attributes Greg's tuition as key to him obtaining an A* in Maths and an A* in Further Maths. I would certainly recommend him.

From Mary Jane
Greg is an outstanding tutor. We are delighted with the progress our son has made in Maths with Greg's help.
From Khaldon
Greg is an amazing tutor. No words are enough to describe how professional and exceptional he is.
Lessons with Greg have helped my son (Yr 11) so much and strengthened his position in physics and maths.
My son used to struggle with Maths and physics. He would not be in a comfortable position with physics and maths if it wasn’t for Greg’s tuition. It helped him improve and made him enjoy physics and maths. The tuition was also very enjoyable and my son had always looked forward to it every single weekend.
I must add that Greg is reliable, passionate about teaching. He tailored the sessions according to my Son’s needs. He used to give us as parents feedback and advice as well.
I am looking forward for Greg to start teaching my other children. Thank you Greg for everything
From Rachel
Greg is an excellent and reliable tutor. He is supporting our daughter very well, identifying gaps and increased confidence in her own abilities. She has recently received her mock results and went up 3 grades to achieve a grade 7. We would not hesitate to recommend Greg as a tutor.
From Amanda
Returning to maths, (GCSE) after a 35 year gap was extremely daunting. I was, quite frankly, terrified, but Greg immediately put me at ease; he is a fantastic teacher and thoroughly deserves his five star recommendations. Greg has endless patience, and because of this I am finally starting to gain a little confidence - I am actually starting to enjoy maths which I never thought I would say! I cannot recommend him highly enough.
From Aimee
Greg is an excellent tutor. My son really enjoys the work they do in Physics, and Greg really makes Physics interesting. I would recommend Greg as an outstanding tutor!!
From Josh
Greg tutored me for 6 weeks and he was excellent. He explained concepts well and in several ways to ensure I fully understood the content. I now have a better understanding of maths and was confident going into my exam. I would strongly recommend Greg to anyone studying an A level standard of maths.
From MARK
I approached Greg for Maths tuition as it had been over 20 years since I took my Maths GCSE and my Maths was very rusty. In particular I had difficulty with rearranging formulae which is a critical component to the commercial pilots licence that I am currently studying for. Greg was happy to tailor each lesson to my needs and learning style and he taught me methods that I found much more effective than those that I learnt at high school. I am now in a position where I am able to complete the Maths elements of my pilots course with much more confidence using the techniques that Greg has taught me. I would highly recommend Greg as a Maths tutor and I certainly would not hesitate to use his services again in the future.
From Nick
Incredibly thorough, does a lot of preparation beforehand that really pays off in clear, helpful lessons. Recommended.
From Sarah
We have had 2 sessions so far and my two boys are really enjoying them - they really like Greg! He takes alot of care too in making sure that they are covering the subjects that they don't really understand and I am really confident that this is going to really help them keep up with school work and in their exams - thank you!
From Joanne
Greg tutored my daughter in physics for her 2018 GCSEs. Greg is polite, professional, extremely knowledgeable on the GCSE physics curriculum and expert in strategising for the examination process. His particular strength (for my daughter at least) was in explaining complex ideas using simple examples. I believe that Greg enabled my daughter to achieve a higher grade than she would have done without his tutoring. I would recommend him unreservedly.
From Martina
Greg is really good at explaining difficult concepts and he went at the right pace. He always asked if I understood the content and encouraged me to ask questions. He is a really good tutor and an awesome person.
From Shahid
Gregory is an excellent teacher who was a great help for our daughter's maths tuition in GCSE but unfortunately did not get him for her A level preparations this year.
From Jade
I began searching for a tutor to help with the QTS numeracy test for many reasons; I hadn't sat any form of maths exam in ten years; I failed all practice tests that I attempted; and I had no confidence whatsoever in my mathematical ability. Greg was an amazing help. Always prompt, professional and personable. He managed to teach me tricks to answer questions quickly, and to be certain the answer was correct. After rescheduling the test three times due to fear, when I actually sat it, I passed first time. I would never have been able to do that without Greg. He is wonderful and I can't recommend him enough.
From Jennifer
My son is in year 12 studying A level Mathematics. He requested to have a private tutor to go over certain subjects learnt at school to improve his understanding and confidence. Greg has been excellent and my son is absolutely delighted to have discovered Greg. Greg knows his subject thoroughly and goes beyond your own knowledge when teaching which allows you an improved and adaptable understanding. Greg appears to really enjoy teaching and has a professional, respectful attitude complimenting his exceptional ability. As a parent observing and from comments made from my son I would not hesitate to recommend Greg as a tutor.
From Paul
Greg has delivered eight superb GCSE Physics sessions to our daughter, who is aiming for an A grade at GCSE but who has had to endure "sub-optimal" teaching at her school. Greg is meticulous, methodical, exceedingly well-prepared, crystal-clear in his explanations, patient and sensitive: surely the perfect qualities for work of this kind. He gives most generously of his time and is highly flexible and accommodating. He deserves the highest recommendation!
From Sally
I needed a tutor to help me with my Professional skills test for Numeracy, in order to become a teacher. I had four sessions with Greg and passed. Before we started the tutoring, Greg asked me which areas I was struggling with and set out a plan of what we would cover in each session. He always arrived to the house really prepared. I have always struggled with Maths but Greg explained things clearly and in a language that I could easily understand. When it came to the test I felt prepared and confident.I would recommend for anyone who struggles with Maths. Cheers Greg!
From Sally
I have found Gregory to be polite, helpful and very well informed. He has spent a lot of time preparing the lessons and has explained them in a way which my daughter can understand. He has been patient and keen to help my daughter improve on her exam techniques in order for her to improve her grades in the subjects she is studying. I am very pleased with the progress so far.
