Feedback For Derek (4)

Derek has been instrumental in helping my daughter build her confidence and knowledge skills in Maths. She is in Yr11 and has always struggled with her understanding of more complex mathematical problems. Derek has shown her ways of learning to enable her to retain the knowledge. I would certainly recommend Derek. Thank you.

My son has now had 3 lessons using zoom and this is working very well. Derek has a very professional manner and explains things clearly. My son feels he is making good progress already. We`re very happy with the tutoring Derek is giving and would highly recommend.

Derek has been tutoring my daughter for 4 weeks and he has already helped to build her confidence and overcome some mathematical problems that she thought she could never achieve. We will continue to use Derek for at least one more year leading up to the GCSE Exams. Our only regret is not using Derek sooner
