Farncombe Tutors

"Excellent tutor with fantastic teaching skills. Pamela is very experienced and can bring the best in a child. We are very lucky to have her."

"The minute Adrian contacted me I knew that he was the right tutor for my daughter. He took time prior to meeting with us to exchange emails and find out which areas she needed help with. Adrian taught my daughter English for 5 months prior to her GCSE exam`s. Much of their time was spent in discussion and debate regarding the literature and poetry that she was studying. He expanded her vocabulary enormously and encouraged her to have clear opinions about the texts she was reading. His sessions were engaging and proactive and I believe she responded far better and learned far more as she was developing a confidence around the subject and developing her own thoughts. He also helped enormously with her creative writing and how to cope in exam conditions. I cannot recommend Adrian highly enough he was also happy to work over weekend`s and bank holidays particularly on the Sunday prior to a GCSE English exam on the Monday. He has been just Brilliant - thank you Adrian!"

"Andrew Made my son feel very comfortable which was our worry nice pleasant teaching methods recommended"

"Kieran has been a wonderful tutor, teaching my son politics, government and history. My son says he makes any dull subject fun and interesting. He’s very knowledgeable as well as patient (my son has Aspergers). He always goes the extra mile with lessons and is quick to adjust to needs and last-min changes. He’s helped my son not only with the subject matter but also with writing style, technique in answering questions/writing essays and putting together presentations. I would strongly recommend him to any student or parent looking for a knowledgeable and thoughtful tutor."

"Paula has tutored my daughter previously for triple science GCSE. My daughter really benefited from her sessions with Paula who supported her to fill in any gaps in her learning and build her confidence as a learner. Paula would email over any work covered during the sessions such as mindmaps so my daughter could use these at home. Paula is now tutoring my son, KS3 science, and even in the first few sessions it has made a real difference! He shows enthusiasm towards his sessions and his confidence in the subject is already improving and this has been reported back to me by his subject teacher. Paula is a very conscientious and knowlegdeable and keeps me informed of progress/topics covered at the end of each session. Both my children have enjoyed their sessions with Paula, which I feel, as a parent, is a very important factor. "

"Sean worked alongside me as a deputy head. He is a competent primary teacher and well used to supporting children to prepare for KS2 SATs. I expect he will make a good job of tuition too. He is well organised, knowledgeable and able to research any areas he is not as confident with."

"Patricia tutored my son for his Spanish GCSE. She was absolutely brilliant and I would not hesitate to recommend her. My son really enjoyed learning with Patricia and successfully passed his GCSE. If I can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me. Regards ."
