Aaron taught my daughter gcse German, remotely, prior to and throughout lockdown. Aaron is extremely professional, well prepared and engaging - a perfect combination for a teenager struggling with the language. Predicted a 4, thanks to Aaron delighted with her grade 7. Would not hesitate to recommend. Carol and Alexandra

Aaron was really thoughtful when he was unable to fit me into his schedule by providing the name of another tutor who would be able to provide lessons.
I have since commenced lessons with the tutor Aaron was able to link me with. My tutor made sure before the lesson what level I was and asked what I already know so she could prepare appropriate work for me. That was brilliant, as it meant we would commence the lesson straight away when I arrived.
