We engaged Nicola when my daughter was predicted a B in Biology. Nicola worked very hard at improving my daughter's knowledge of the subject which resulted in her achieving an A*. She puts a lot of effort into the lessons, is structured & methodical in her approach as well as having good knowledge of the subject. She also ensured that there was sufficient time devoted to past papers revision & assessing against the mark scheme. She also gave feedback after lessons which was invaluable to me as a parent.
Nicola is an excellent science tutor and very organised. My son's lesson are planned in advance and tailored to meet his needs. Her lessons are very beneficial to my son and always concluded with questions about the topic to confirm his understanding. She puts all work covered on a USB which is useful as my son can always go back to it. In addition, she always gives me informative feedback. I am very pleased with Nicola & would recommend her to any one looking for a professional and friendly science tutor.
Ms Lagos tutors my son for KS3 science.We are very satisfied with her teaching.She is always well prepared for the lesson and provides material relevant to the lesson. Alongside, she prepares power points related to the topic which makes the lesson more interesting and interactive. Ms Lagos is regular and punctual. She explains new topics in proper details and makes the lessons very interesting. She appreciates whenever my son does well and shows good understanding which motivates him to do better.
