Feedback For Philip (27)

Philip style of teaching suited my son. We have contacted Philip 4 months before his GCSE exams. Philip tailored the teachings based topics my son lacked confidence. Once Chemistry topics are completed, Philip also helped Son in Biology and Physics, giving practical examples of the subject which I believe is best way to tutor. I will recommend Philip to any GCSE student.

Philip is a great teacher. He has helped my son to prepare for his A` level on the run up of the exam. His explanations are clear and he is very patient. My son has found him most helpful. He is also very flexible and was happy to arrange more lessons or, when needed, to rearrange some. His feedback to parents are detailed. He is happy to communicate with parents to support the child. I wish my son had started having lessons with Philip! Thank you Philip!

Philip taught my daughter A level chemistry and she has found him a joy to work with. He is very knowledgeable and explains difficult concepts in a way that anyone could understand, which helped my daughter a lot in improving her chemistry. I would highly recommend Philip to anyone looking for an A level chemistry tutor.
