Niall was great for my daughter. She lacked confidence and found Biology really hard but he was kind, patient and made the lessons fun. My daughter really found the lessons useful and her understanding of the subject greatly improved. By the time her GCSE arrived, she was much more confident about doing the exam. Thank you very much Niall, all the best for the future.

Niall supported my son during his sixth form, he was brilliant supporting and mentoring him throughout, my son achieved an A in physical education which helped to secure his place at Exeter university. I would highly recommend Niall, we couldn’t be more pleased.

Niall has really helped my son with his A level Biology. He was personable, flexible and provided motivational tutor sessions , making topics understandable and easier to learn, with revision notes for each topic to use between sessions . My son improved his results in his mocks by 2 grades and we are now awaiting A level results.

Heath (Mr)

Niall has been great with our 16 yo son, who had underperformed in his mock Chemistry and did not enjoy learning it. Niall formed a very relaxed environment which encouraged engagement and a strong desire to learn. My son immediately started to enjoy learning and particularly recognised the visual presentation style that Niall adopted worked well for him. No GCSE results yet but our son is confident he will have improved massively. We are very pleased with Niall and would definitely recommend him and use him again if the need arises. Niall is also very flexible if lesson timing logistics causes issues.

Niall helped my daughter with her PE, Biology and Chemistry GCSE revision; She loved working with him and has really improved her revision technique under his guidance; I would highly recommend him as a tutor in any of these subjects.

Niall is an engaging tutor and my Year 13 son has very much enjoyed their sessions. He is patient and clear which has helped my son consolidate his learning of PE and to apply it to the exam questions. Recommened.

Ruth (Miss)

Niall has been fantastic at motivating our son in his studies. He has been really flexible and made a real connection that has allowed him to get the best out of our son. Thank you.

Tao (Dr)

Niall has been very patient, accommodating and truly improved the understanding of elements in the A Level Biology that were previously lacking. Additional materials have been given after each lesson for revision, as well as expansion to the content.

Sarah (Mrs)

My son sits his A levels this year and has found Niall`s support in PE very helpful. Niall is clearly knowlegable and has his lessons well planned. He has built an excellent rapport with my son who very much looks forward to their lessons.

Nicole (Ms)

Niall and I have been working on Biology A2 sessions for some time, and he has dramatically improved my confidence in the subject. Niall has sent PowerPoints should I need extra help on something, and sent lessons after we have completed them. When I was ill, he could work around still teaching me a great understanding of the subject I was struggling with. I moved up a grade with Niall, and his calm, friendly, and humor-filled lessons never feel boring to me. He allows ample time for me to take down notes that help me understand the subject better, and his lessons have lots of questions to check my knowledge is solid. I have every confidence that he is a great teacher, and will help me improve at AQA Biology.

Rebecca (Miss)
04/01/2023

I have been studying with Niall for 3 months. Throughout that time I have found him to be reliable, enthusiastic, incredibly knowledgeable about the curriculum and nothing has been too much trouble. Sessions can be flexible and I receive a stretching mix of taught material, exam practice and private study. Couldn’t have picked better, I am now feeling far more confident and prepared.

Parmie (Mrs)
02/01/2023

Niall, is trully an outstanding tutor. Niall`s wealth of knowledge and professional experience has supported my son in gaining a deeper understanding of the subjects. He has built a good rapport with my son and Niall ensures that my son is always challenging himself. I have no reservations in recommending Niall to any other parents looking for a tutor. The fact my son actually looks forward to his lessons speaks volume of the quality of teaching!

Jeannie (Ms)
04/12/2022

We`re so pleased with Niall. He`s the real deal. Really knowledgeable about the `A` level PE syllabus and very personable, punctual and prepared. He takes time to explain tricky topics,and goes the extra mile to answer questions between lessons, and review returned papers for feedback. Niall is the tutor who makes the most of the quality time he gets, to turn things around - time that teachers at Sixth form just don`t have for one to ones! I`ve got great hopes...Jeannie (Mum of Dom)

Donna (Mrs)
02/11/2022

Nial has been excellent in understanding what my son actually needs help with. He is professional, patient, knowledgable and enthusiastic in his tutoring. My sons confidence in preparation towards his A levels is growing. Thanks Nial!

Joanne (Miss)
18/08/2022

Niall started tutoring my son in April after he`d had very low and disappointing mock results in his PE A level, not in line with his predictions. Niall really helped my son understand how to answer exam papers, especially the questions that required a lot of writing and therefore more points available. My son got along great with Niall and I would highly recommend him. And he ended up getting his predicted A in PE so was very worthwhile getting this extra help even though it was only for a few months.

Sarah (Mrs)
15/07/2022

My son had his first session with Niall today. Niall was energetic and friendly and put my son at ease pretty much immediately. He was encouraging throughout and my son finished the session feeling far more positive about tackling his A level Biology. He has had a nightmare year with supply teachers and remote learning due to staff sickness and catching up seems pretty impossible but I’m very optimistic now and we will be booking regular sessions.

Sharn (Mr)
19/06/2022

I cannot recommend Niall highly enough, his input and ability to quickly build a relationship and rapport with my son meant i saw an increase in focus and diligence towards his studies in general but also an increased confidence with PE going into his exams. My son enjoyed working Niall and really respected him as a tutor, his approach really engaged him. Niall responded very promptly to any messages that i sent and he was extremely professional and very courteous. If you are looking for a tutor to support your son / daughter with their studies then choose Niall.

oyin (Mrs)

Great Tutor, friendly and very helpful, lots of material provided to aid learning. My daughter really enjoyed working with him.

Claire (Mrs)

Great tutor really helped my son with his Sports Science A level preparation.

Abdul (Mr)
03/06/2022

Niall has been amazing with our son, he focuses on exam questions which we have found is good as it has helped him with his GCSEs. Niall took out son from a predicted grade 5 to what we hoping now will be a 7 plus. You will find Niall’s tutoring technique to be very educational. Once our son has done his GCSEs we will carry on with our other lad nice and early so his well prepared.

Roghana (Mrs)
02/06/2022

Mr Niall is a very good teacher. He tutored my son who is in year 12 and needed help with Biology. He provides additional study material and is very knowledgeable. I would recommend Mr Niall for Biology lessons.

Alison (Mrs)
28/05/2022

Niall has been a great tutor for my son during his AS level exam. His confidence has grown and his enjoyment in the subject: couldn’t recommend him enough.

Howard (Mr)
19/05/2022

Niall had been invaluable in helping my son improve both knowledge and exam technique. He goes into his AS exams this week with more confidence and is looking forward to carrying on with Niall`s help into his A Levels next year. Niall not only has helped him with the subject but had passed on valuable exam technique methods to use and supplied many resources to help with revision. Niall is an excellent tutor who not only builds a great relationship with his pupil but also ensures they have all the material they need to succeed. Thanks

Simon (Mr)
06/05/2022

Niall has been an excellent tutor for our son. He knows the PE specification intimately, plans interesting on-line sessions and always links them to past paper questions. Our son is guided in answering them and feedback is provided.

Dawn (Ms)
03/05/2022

Niall has been fabulous! We agreed a weekly time and he was always punctual. More importantly, my son really warned to him and respected his knowledge and skills. Henry found the lessons really engaging and said he wished we would have found Niall sooner. His confidence has really improved as a result of the work they have done together. I whole-heartedly recommend Niall as a PE tutor and wouldn`t hesitate in using his talents again.

Doug (Mr)
22/04/2022

Very clear in teaching and explains things very well

Lillie (Miss)

Steve (Mr)

Niall was a tremendous help to our Son. He quickly identified knowledge gaps and clearly explained how to improve exam technique. He is a knowledgeable and reliable tutor and we found his vast experience to be exactly what our son needed. I would highly recommend Niall.

Vicky (Dr)
14/12/2021

Very pleased to have found Niall. Organised, reliable and extremely knowledgeable. Prepares lesson plans and provides material for each tutorial and my son really enjoys his teaching methods. Highly recommended.

Jonathan (Mr)

Niall clicked with my son immediately and I could see he would be a great tutor. Unfortunately timings / availability didn`t work out but I would recommend to others

Sarah (Mrs)
21/11/2021

Niall has been a great help with my daughters PE A level, he`s friendly, explains it really clearly and he creates great resources.

Karen (Mrs)
09/05/2021

Absolutely amazing tutor! Niall has worked with our son for a number of months and has not only improved his predicted grades in PE considerably, but has built up his confidence in the subject. Niall has a wealth of experience both academic and practical which he has been happy to share with our son. Learning about some of the real life application of the subject has inspired our son to look to progress Sports Science at University. I am so pleased that we found Niall! I could not recommend him highly enough. First class! If you are looking for a PE tutor then I would look no further.

Ian (Mr)
08/01/2021

Niall has been providing `online` support for my son for the past 3 months in preparation for his P.E A level examinations. My son found Niall to be a knowledgeable and supportive tutor, especially with his academic and sporting background. The lessons were informative, engaging and Niall made some of the more challenging subject matter easier to understand. Jack was impressed with how Niall was able to explain in detail in how to answer the structured essay questions, which has improved his assessments at school. Clearly Niall is a consummate professional who takes time to prepare and deliver the lessons content and provides timely homework. He is also prepared to change lessons at short notice. Niall is an excellent tutor and those fortunate to secure his services will not be disappointed.

Elspeth (Mrs)
09/10/2018

Niall was organised and equipped for each lesson and always had a good plan and Powerpoint ready. Despite a limited timeframe, he got me through all the content in time for the exam. He`s very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about PE which is exactly what I needed as he could answer all my questions including the off spec ones. In the run up to exams he provided many relevant questions from past papers prepared so that I could always test my knowledge and improve my technique every week.

Susan (Mrs)
20/06/2018

Niall started helping my son with OCR A Level PE at the end of the Easter holidays in Upper 6th - 2 months out from the exams. His help & support were excellent and he helped my son make great improvements in both his knowledge and confidence for the exams. Would thoroughly recommend Niall as a tutor.

Ned (Mr)
19/05/2018

Niall has been helping my son with his PE A level in the run up to his exams. Niall has been very reliable and professional. My son has found him to be very approachable and Niall has really helped consolidate his knowledge and improve his confidence in the subject. We have been really pleased with Niall as a tutor.

Olivia (Miss)
14/05/2018

Niall is extremely knowledgeable in his subject and is really helping my daughter with her A level PE

Kate (Mrs)
02/09/2017

Becky (16): As someone who went from a C in my GCSE chemistry mock to getting an A* in my actual GCSE, I can honestly say that I couldn`t have done it without Niall. Not only did he have confidence in me, he also encouraged me to have confidence in myself and pushed me to get the best grade possible. I struggled a lot with biology too but ended up going from an unstable A in my mock to a solid A* in my exam. He makes you feel comfortable and relaxed and knows exactly what he`s talking about, making him able to adapt to different people`s needs. As a student, I would definitely recommend him to anyone!

Emma (Mrs)
15/08/2017

Niall is a truly truly brilliant A Level PE tutor. I was looking for help for my 17/18 year old son for his A level AQA PE exam. We found Niall - and that was THE moment my sons love and understanding of his PE A level syllabus began. I truly cannot recommend Niall more. My son has mild dyslexia and Niall approached all his lessons with great understanding, planning and consideration. Im tempted not to praise Niall more than I have as I want him free to have time to tutor our daughter through her PE GCSE next year! I cannot thank you enough Niall.

Amanda (Mrs)
12/07/2017

We only found Niall about 6 weeks before my son was due to take his exams so didn`t have a lot of time to prepare. He responded straight away and was very good at accommodating us. My son was really struggling with his P.E. A level and had no confidence. In the short time we had Niall was able to build his confidence and help him understand the subject more. My son really liked Niall`s way of teaching and found the time with him helped hugely. Niall was very easy to deal with and good at keeping in touch and we would recommend him to anyone looking for a tutor for P.E.

Kate (Mrs)
14/06/2017

This is the second time we have used Niall for Chemistry and Biology tutoring this time for my second daughter sitting her GCSEs. Like the first time, the quality of Niall`s tutoring cannot be surpassed. Her confidence in the subject has gone through the roof and we genuinely feel she has gone from a C grade to an A* (although the results in August will confirm this!) Niall gives 110% to his students, tailoring his support specifically to their needs and the additional work sheets and print outs he provided were invaluable.On top of that, he`s a really nice guy! We have no hesitation in highly recommending. Thank you again Niall

Philomena (Ms)

Niall has made a huge difference to my son`s confidence in A2 PE. He has expert understanding of the subject and syllabus, and provides my son with excellent additional documentation to aid his studies. My son says the lessons are inspiring. He loves going to see Niall.

Joanna (Mrs)
22/08/2016

Would highly recommend Niall as a tutor. His friendly approach and attitude to learning enabled my son to achieve his grades. Thank you for all the encouragement and support.

Joanna (Mrs)
22/08/2016

As a student, I highly recommend Niall as a tutor. After some disappointing results from AS I started seeing him and he taught all three of my subjects - PE, Biology and Psychology. My academic performances improved dramatically and at A2 he helped me achieve the grades to get into my first choice university. His lessons were thoroughly enjoyable and the resources were very useful. Thanks Niall!

Alison (Mrs)
13/08/2016

We found Niall a great help for our son. His approach helped our son to become more confident in the subject and himself . He enjoyed the tutor sessions which were relaxed, informal and very positive.

Timmy (Mr)
06/01/2016

Very Diligent with good ideas and wealth of exprience

Mark (Mr)
15/10/2015

Niall is a very knowledgeable tutor with a lot of experience tutoring Biology which he tutored to my year 12 and 13 daughter. He always communicated well with my daughter and helped her to engage with the subject more fully.

Will (Mr)
15/10/2015

We only managed an introductory session with Niall as he is currently out of the country and we have subsequently decided not to wait until he returns. He seemed very pleasant and enthusiastic. Perhaps a little too much talking and not enough doing, but then this was our experience from just one session. Our friends were very complementary of his abilities.

Richard (Mr)
15/09/2015

Niall is a very personable and approachable teacher, but could benefit from improved organisation. Niall tutored my daughter for A-Level biology, and while his tutoring was of a good quality, there were a number of times when sessions were missed due to a variety of problems. Apart from that I`d be happy to recommend him.

Simon (Mr)
25/08/2015

Had Niall for just under a year, great tutor, would highly recommend him to anybody, helped me gain above my predicted grade in Physical Education, masses of resources for learning and revision, always on time, always positive and definitely knows his stuff. Genuinely nice guy.

Noreen (Mrs)
17/08/2015

Niall tutored my daughter who was totally lacking in confidence in her ability to pass AS Biology. Niall was reliable and his easy going manner helped my daughter`s confidence to grow. I`m delighted to say she passed her AS Biology and would like to thank Niall for all his help and support.

David (Mr)
13/08/2015

Just an update to my earlier feedback.

My son David received his A Level results today and he obtained an A grade and is now going on to Southampton University to study Biology. Niall has worked with David throughout this year again with the same skill, conscientiousness and enthusiasm and as a result David has obtained the result he wished for. I cannot recommend Niall highly enough to any prospective student.

Gaby (Mrs)
06/07/2015

Niall was an excellent tutor. He was very well resourced and was able to answer any question i had. I found that his passion for the subject was motivational. Niall was extremely helpful for A2 AQA Biology and i am very grateful for all his help!

Kate (Mrs)
29/06/2015

From the very first moment, Niall was a friendly and funny man who clearly has a great skill in teaching. He was really supportive in helping me understand the areas which I was not familiar with and improving my ability to answer questions as mark schemes dictate. The best thing of all is that he made learning really fun. He had a unique way of explaining things, often giving every day examples to help describe things in a new way. I never thought I would say this but he actually made me begin to enjoy studying biology and I think that in itself is an achievement. I definitely recommend him to everyone and anyone. Cheers Niall! (Emily - AS level)

Alicia (Mrs)

Excellent Tutor for my son`s GCSE`s last year. Can highly recommend him.

Alicia (Mrs)
25/11/2014

Niall tutored my son at GCSE and was particularly good at going through exam technique which enabled my son to go from a grade D (est) to B in his exam in 3 months. Very pleased.

Chris (Mr)
25/06/2014

Niall was one of, if not the best teacher I have ever had, and I am sure I would have not been as confident going into my A2 exams if I had not had Niall. His teaching made complicated aspects of the courses seem clear and even enjoyable.
I strongly recommend Niall as a tutor and wish I had been taught by him earlier.

David (Mr)
20/05/2014

Niall has been a brilliant tutor for my son, David, who is taking his AS Biology this year. David had many questions and they have all been answered clearly and in full. Niall focuses his lessons around specific biological topics, uses past papers a great deal to monitor progress and also employs revision Powerpoint presentations. As an experienced tutor he knows of many useful study aids and resources. Most important of all is Niall`s enthusiasm for Biology which he then passes on to the student.
