Alexander is an outstanding tutor. We`ve been through a few, and without a doubt, he is by far, the best of them. His calm and patience coupled with a wealth of knowledge in his subjects had a great impact in my son`s learning progress. He is also very professional and punctual and I can`t recommend enough.

Alex is very patient with my daughter who is not very confident around new people. She cannot praise him enough in how he is building her confidence in acquiring the knowledge she needs to pass her GCSE German. He is very calm and uses various strategies to help her to achieve the best out of each session.

Alex is a great tutor who is helping bring up
the German of my 2 daughters who should be fluent at it... Alex has a very structured approach (especially for the German grammar) which I believe is essential to learn this language properly. He is a great tutor that I would highly recommend!
