Olga has been a great A level tutor for my daughter and definitely boosted her physics grades. The communication from Olga was excellent, each session was well organised; she provided good material to work through and adapted the topics to suit my daughter’s needs. I would recommend Olga as a tutor.

Olga has been tutoring our daughter for a few weeks now for maths and physics A level year12. We and our daughter are extremely happy with how the tutoring is going with Olga as she has a great ability to take complex subjects and make them simple to understand and use past papers to further help and develop. She is friendly, polite and knows how to teach. Another advantage with Olga over other tutors is that she can cover both Maths and Physics.

Tutors Response :

Hi Shahzad,
Thank you very much for your positive feedback. Alesha is a very intelligent and responsive student and I am sure she will continue to improve her knowledge and skills. She is polite and good natured and it is a pleasure tutoring her. All the best. Olga

Explains different methods to obtain answers very well, can easily break down each question, is very polite, and has lots of material (both questions and information sheets). The information sheets are useful for understanding new topics and even strengthening your understanding of old topics. Overall a very good tutor for someone who is trying to improve their A-Level Physics grade.

Tutors Response :

Thank you very much, Archie for your positive feedback. I am very pleased with you understanding and improving each lessons.
All the best for your future studies.

Olga teaches me both AQA Physics and Edexcel Maths. Olga is a very good teacher - we usually go through theory first when doing topics, using her useful handout materials, and then we after go through many practice questions, which helps me to become more confident in my exams. When I`m stuck on certain areas, Olga is keen to help me through step-by-step until I understand the concept fully.

Tutors Response :

Thank you very much for your positive feedback. I am very pleased for your progress in each session in Physics and Maths.
Best wishes for your future study.

My fourteen year old son feels he greatly benefits from weekly tuition in Maths and Physics with Olga. He likes the structure of Olga’s lessons online - by going through the handouts and test paper questions Olga emails before each lesson. He feels Olga immensely supports and extends his knowledge in these subjects, giving him more confidence in class lessons at school and for his assessments. He has definitely improved as also shown in higher predicted grades for the term. He feels comfortable with Olga and isn’t afraid to make mistakes, as he knows she helps him to understand better and learn from these - a great working relationship all round!

Olga has been our son`s tutor for the past few months, and the results are very much evident. Our son is in year ten in a grammar school, and thanks to Olga`s tutoring sessions, he is now one of the top students in the top set. He has in fact been asked to take further math to GSCE. Olga lessons are always well prepared, clear and our son really enjoys them. Also, thanks to Olga`s tutoring sessions, our son is clearly more self confident during math classes and has developed a real interest in the subject.

Tutors Response :

Thank you very much for your feedback. Aldo is an attentive student and has good ability in maths -he produces correct and fast answers with good explanations. All the best for his future plans.

I specifically chose Olga to tutor my son in preparation for his GCSEs based on her bio and her experience and I have not been disappointed. My son`s confidence and understanding of the subject (maths) has increased in only a few months. An assessment was carried out initially to gauge my son`s areas of weakness which i found very helpful and Olga has created a lesson space where he is comfortable to ask any questions he might have to better understand any areas he finds difficult. The lesson material is good and well structured with feedback provided on progress when asked. I am very pleased with my son`s progress so far and will continue to use Olga for as long as she will have us! She comes highly recommended by us! Thank you Mrs Olga xx

Tutors Response :

Thank you very much Raschelle for your feedback - I am very pleased with his progress.

Olga is one of the best maths tutors I could ask for. In short space of time I found out I will have to do an exam to get a grade B equivalent in maths. After not doing maths for over 6 years I could not remember any of it and I was never good at it in first place. This was hell of a challenge but Olga was amazing at explaining and teaching all topics, she send me preparation material for every lesson and explained each topic until I fully understood it and felt confident in it. Part of me was gutted my lesson have ended as I actually started enjoying maths which I used to hate and did not get at all. She made everything seem so easy and stayed enthusiastic throughout. I would recommend her to anyone who wants to learn maths and needs to get a good grade as she will get you there even if you struggled with maths in school.

Tutors Response :

Hi Dorota,
Thank you very much for your comments.You always had a serious and mature approach in your study and I am pleased that you have received the highest possible result in Maths in such a short time. I wish you all best in your career.

Olga is a truly fantastic tutor and the best tutor we have had so far. My son always understands her lessons and is so much more confident with his Physics. Olga always sends work before the lesson which she uses to explain the topic and to reinforce the subject to be learnt. I would recommend Olga to anyone who is struggling with Physics. Thank you so much Olga for everything.

Thank you very much for your feedback.

Olga has been tutoring my daughter KS3 maths for a few sessions now. Olga is well prepared - providing materials during the week and in advance of each lesson. As a parent - I really like Olga`s straight forward, `get on with it` approach - and each interaction is lovely. Although my daughter also appreciates this, she feels happy that Olga is always upbeat and teaches her with an approach that encourages learning - very positively working to improve previously weaker areas of learning. From our experience so far, I can very much recommend Olga as a tutor.

Tutors Response :

Thank you very much for your positive feedback. I am pleased with Rachel’s work and her steady progress.

Our daughter in year 9 is in the top class for maths but lacking in confidence with regards to some of the work compared to her peers. This was compacted throughout lockdown where the teaching was remote, the teaching was fast & asking for help very difficult. Tutor Hunt was highly recommended to us and we have not been disappointed. Olga has been a great match for our daughter. She prepares exam papers in advance of lessons, she checks at the beginning of each lesson what Erin has covered in school & if she needs extra support. Our daughter finds her approachable & easy going we have already noticed our daughters attitude become so much more positive & her confidence grow following only a few lessons. I would highly recommend Olga.

Tutors Response :

Thank you very much for your comments. I am pleased with Erin’s improvements shown in each lesson. She understands and picks up the work quickly, which shows her intelligence and ability. I am glad to see her grow in confidence and she will ask me to explain anything she doesn’t fully understand. I feel happy in the lesson with Erin, because I know she will master the topic, and she is able to remember and use what she has learned to solve new problems.

We are now coming up to our fifth maths lesson with Olga tutoring our Year 9/13-Year-old daughter. Olga quickly identified our daughters` weak areas, this allowed our daughter to improve these areas within the lesson. In turn, when our daughter has had her maths lesson in school she already had a firm grasp on what was being taught.

We have definitely seen a turn around in our daughters` confidence in a short time through Olga`s clear instruction, patience and calm demeanour.

Although our daughter isn`t struggling in her schools` maths lessons. There is only a certain amount of time that a comprehensive school teacher can spend on one student in a class of 30 other students and Olga has shown what can be achieved within a short period of time with student-focused learning.

I can wholeheartedly recommend Olga as a tutor, she really has been fantastic!

Tutors Response :

Dear David,

Thank you very much for your comments.

Olga
