Graham is an excellent tutor providing detailed knowledge of all three sciences! He has been teaching my son very well with interactive lessons. Additionally, he is an exam marker, providing my son with good tips for developing exam techniques and being well-prepared for his GCSEs. I would definitely recommend Graham as a tutor.
From Shorna
Graham's subject knowledge in Physics is very impressive and was able to help my son understand difficult problems clearly before his Edexcel GCSE examinations in Physics. Graham was also able to help my son understand exam technique to be able to answer questions most effectively. He was also very approachable during the examinations, and made a point of accommodating my son's queries and offering a lesson. And though my son missed the arranged time due to an unavoidable situation, with no notice given to Graham, the latter was still kind enough to take a lesson, was very supportive in explaining the queries patiently and additionally did not charge for this, of his own volition. Very positive experience, thank you Graham.
From Tanya
Thank you Graham for supporting with diligence and professionalism my son's iGCSE chemistry prep. I really appreciated your flexibility and my son found the sessions useful.
From Gordon
Graham helped our daughter with the three core GCSE science subjects covering topics she did not fully understand. She found Graham's tutoring style helpful and clear. As a result of time with Graham she feels more confident with the subjects and has a better understanding.
From Nigel
After the trial lesson, Graham told me by email that he would not be much help to my son, who is seeking help to improve from a score 7 situation. Graham said that his main focus when tutoring is to improve a pupil's understanding of the subject. He believes that this is not the issue for my son, and the lessons would be spending a lot of time just going through the work in the book. I appreciate Graham's feedback and hope that another student who deserves the opportunity better than my son will benefit from Graham's tuition.
Thanks for the feedback.
We had a trial lesson and it was quickly apparent that the pupil was bright and intelligent.
The brief was to cover work missed at the start of the course before the pupil joined his new school. I felt that this could be achieved easily without my input as there were no issues of understanding and the topics were quite straightforward.
I gave some advice about how this could be done by private study.
From Al
My son always looked forward to Graham's sessions, which were very well planned, appropriately paced and highly engaging. Graham has a kind manner which developed my son's self-confidence and interest in science. Graham made time to discuss my son's progress and also the areas he needed to work on between sessions - he has extensive knowledge of the science curriculum and the exam system. My son and I were delighted with the results in GCSE science, reflecting the excellent quality of Graham's teaching. I highly recommend Graham.
From Gemma
Graham was extremely knowledgeable and helped our son achieve some excellent GSCE results.
From Michael
My Daughter is so thankful to Graham. She has an ongoing health issue and he helped her raise her GCSE grades - Chemistry increased 3 grades(!), Physics 2 grades and Biology 1 grade - all between January and June 2022! Simply an amazing achievement!
Graham puts things in a way my daughter understands and somehow make science easier to understand!
Thank you so much Graham.
Highly recommended!

Graham is an experienced chemistry and physics tutor and very familiar with both AQA content and examination for these subjects… He was the ideal calm and patient tutor for our daughter and her results were excellent with his help.
From Georgia
Graham has a lovely reassuring manner and explains things very clearly. My daughter hasn’t had that many sessions yet but her confidence has already grown.
From Anna
We feel very grateful to have found Graham, who is helping our son in preparing for his GCSE science exams. He explains the topics extremely well and by the end of the session everything is much clearer to him. Graham is very accomodating and works well with our son to decide on the best course of action, reinforcing what has been learnt in the lessons with questions to complete in a workbook. They have only had a few sessions, but Graham is already instilling confidence in our son, so this is very positive.
From Aabir
He has really helped our daughter so far.

From Melissa
My daughter was looking for a tutor to help her through her GCSE year. She has loved every minute of learning with Graham and her confidence grew from the first tuition session. Having just completed her GCSE exams, she feels confident and happy with her performance and the exam pressure has been greatly reduced by Graham's guidance over the past year.
From Geoffrey
Graham has been a first class tutor to my daughter, resulting in an 8 and two 7s for higher level GCSE science, when at times she questioned whether she would even drop one subject. Graham has a calm manner and quietly installs confidence in your child. Have no hesitation in recommending him.
From Veronica
Graham quickly established a rapport with Ben, who was keen to continue the tuition. He is once again keen to learn and interested in science. Graham feeds in interesting facts and general knowledge that helps Ben to see the relevance of what he is learning.

Graham has been tutoring my son for about a month now and is already having a very positive impact. My sons test results at school have really improved so he is feeling a lot more confident. I would recommend Graham wholeheartedly. He is organised, patient and clearly a very experienced teacher.
From Grainne
Graham has been very reliable and has established a good rapport with Tom very quickly. Tom is very much enjoying his sessions and gaining a lot from the tuition. Overall delighted that we found Graham and has been very beneficial.
From Louise
Graham proved to be an excellent tutor. He quickly assessed where my son was struggling with the subject and worked closely with the school to develop a plan to address. The most important thing was he gave my son the confidence to tackle the subject and we were more than delighted with my son's GCSE result. I strongly recommend Graham as a physics tutor.
From Karen
My son has recently commenced a physics tuition program with Graham. It is early days but so far we have been very pleased with the progress that has been made.
From Heather
Graham tutored our daughter for two years right up until her GCSE’s. She achieved high grades in all three sciences and we would highly recommend him. He was patient, helpful, supportive and explained things in different ways until she understood it.
From Kate
Graham has provided some excellent GCSE science tuition for my son in year 11. We've always found him to be friendly,reliable and punctual. He explains things in such a way that does not over complicate the subject, starting from basics, adding in more detail and ensuring that there is complete understanding before moving on. We now are looking forward to receiving my sons GCSE results! Thank you Graham
From Peter
Graham really did help my son believe that he could achieve his goals, he help him with his revision approach. We had been told in February that he was way off and it was looking like he would not pass, although the results are not yet in my son does feel his exams went well and he answered all of the questions confidently. Graham was also very flexible and even at late notice from myself, always managed to fit my son in for tutoring. Thank you Graham
From Jacqueline
We asked for help at the last minute and Graham was able to fit us in for a couple of sessions which was really helpful.
From Jane
Graham has been tutoring our 2 daughters GCSE science for at about 6 months now. They each have an hour with him and he has improved their confidence and knowledge hugely in that time. They both enjoy his sessions and say he has a good way of teaching them things so that they remember! (they have their GCSE's this month so I hope so!). He travels to us and is always reliable and punctual. We would thoroughly recommend him as a tutor. Thank you Graham.
