Reviews
Jonathan responded very promptly to messages. He is well organised and has a thorough understanding of his subject. His tips about exam techniques were very useful. Thank you for your help.
Excellent - We’ve seen a clear improvement in my son’s confidence and understanding since he started.
Jonathan was excellent helping my son during half term with his A level Economics. Jonathan made the sessions interactive with a much needed focus on exam technique alongside testing my son's knowledge. My son enjoyed the sessions and found them helpful in terms of knowing the gaps in his knowledge but also where to focus his revision efforts.
Jonathan tutored our son for A-Level Economics and is an excellent tutor. He is thorough, expereinced, patient, enthusiastic and extremely supportive. He not only tailored the sessions as per our needs but also helped with exam technique and conceptual clarity. Our son benefitted enormously and received A* which is thanks to Jonathan's brillaint help and support! Jonathan is encourgaing, positive and relaxed, which helps students getting through stressful times of A-Level preparation. He is also very experienced and offers insight into exam requirement and mark scheme. I can't recommend him enough- he is the the BEST tutor by far!

Very kind of you Anjali. Adi was a great student who worked very hard and I was thrilled to hear of his A* grade. Best of luck for the future.
Jonathan is patient and perceptive as a tutor and has given my daughter the skills and confidence she needed to get through her A level economics. I'm very happy to recommend him as a tutor and my daughter has said that "he's a really approachable guy" who kept her focused and encouraged when she was uncertain. Many thanks Jonathan!
