My son was not doing well in Chemistry GCSE, he started tuition with Sami and straight away he identified gaps in knowledge. Sami is an amazing tutor with extensive knowledge and he will go the extra mile. He helped my son go from a B to an A , and from my son feeling anxious about chemistry to feeling confident. He gave my son lots of past paper questions and lots of repetition to ensure understanding and learning. Fantastic tutor would highly recommend. Raj B
Thank you so much for your feedback, I'm looking forward to doing A-Level chemistry tuition with him :)
From Rebekka
Sami was my daughter's tutor for chemistry and physics for a few months prior the the exams. Sami was brilliant. He was motivating, pro-active and had a wealth of detailed resources and engaging lessons in both subject's.
His commitment and dedication to young people is unparalleled and this was evident through his continuous engagement and encouragement. He was also very flexible given his other commitments as a teacher.
My daughter loved his lessons and I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for extra help for their child. Thank you Sami!
Thank you for the feedback, I'm really grateful for you taking the time to do this. Hope your daughter has done really well in her exams and I pray she is able to achieve her dream of working with animals :)
From Cecily Kate
Sami is a fantastic tutor. As a family we feel blessed to have found him, if only for a few months before GCSE exams. Our only regret is that we didn't find Sami sooner as we would certainly have enlisted him to tutor our son in Biology, Maths, Chemistry and Physics as well! I highly recommend trying Sami's free sample session. The teaching system that he has created continues to motivate our teenage son every step of the way, right up to his final GCSE Biology exam this week. Sami holds a steady disciplined approach to teaching the material for Biology GCSE as well as being supportive, compassionate and direct. He has brought out the very best in our 16 year old, not just by bringing him up to speed for Biology GSCE exams but also building up confidence and commitment. It's been heartwarming to witness how a tutor can hold such a warm respectful rapport with a student, all the while maintaining a gentle tab on progress via the efficient and easy to use subject hub. As a parent it's also been very helpful to receive feedback from Sami along the way. I wholeheartedly recommend Sami as a tutor - you definitely get what you pay for so despite the financial stretch we now rest easy knowing we made the optimum decision to enlist Sami's support and invest in our son's future. Most importantly Sami has ignited a love of learning in our teenage son which will last for lifetime!
Thank you for your kind words, it means a lot. It has been an absolute pleasure working with your son, it is very sad to leave him and I wish him all the best in his A-level biology journey, and everything else of course.
A-level biology is challenging so he has to work hard and be disciplined with his studies from the very beginning! I learnt that very quickly myself when doing A-level biology back in 06-08. I initially fell behind and had to work very very hard to catch up.
From Ruth
Sami is professional and kind and helping our son make rapid and substantial improvements in his science work
Thank you! He’s a lovely young man and I’m really privileged to be working with him
From justine
We have only had 2 sessions with Sami but my daughter (aged 14) really enjoys her lessons with him and says he is much better than her biology teacher at school. He also gives access to some handy online working questions which she really enjoys.
I too have really enjoyed the sessions! With lots of hard work we’ll get her the grade 9s we know she is capable of getting ☺️
From Miranda
Sami is an excellent tutor who completely took my son (who also has SEN) under his ‘revision’ wing. My son says he’s extremely clear, good at adapting to the the student he has and created clear and logical revision plans for my son to follow. All round passionate teacher who goes beyond the subject in order to the support the well being and success of the individual child.
Thank you Miranda, he was a please to teach and hope he’s doing well!
From Rasha
Mr Sami is a great teacher. He helped my daughter overcome her fear of Chemistry. His sessions were structured and tailored to her needs. He motivated her throughout Year 11 and helped her achieve a great grade. Thank you for your unbelievable support and encouragement, Mr Sami.
Very happy to hear she’s doing chemistry for a-level after she said to me she wouldn’t! I pray nothing but happiness and success in the next stage of her life
From Chloe
We have been delighted with the way Sami has worked with our son. Chemistry was his least favourite subject but we have just received his GCSE results and he got a high 8. From our experience, what I would say about Sami is that he works with the whole child, building up their confidence in their ability to do a subject rather than just spoon-feeding. Sami was also excellent at communicating with us so we always knew when lessons were and how our son was getting on. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
So happy to hear he did well! He fully deserves it after the hard work he put it :)
From Ang
Excellent tutor - committed, focussed and and well prepared. Has an engaging manner and inspired a can do attitude . Don’t think my child would have done as well without Sami’s input.Highly recommend
Thank you for your feedback, it is greatly appreciated :)
So happy to hear she got what she needed to get to the next step. Best of luck with everything!
From Amanda
Sami tutored my daughter in GCSE Chemistry. His enthusiastic and down to earth approach to teaching not only ensured she understood concepts but was confident in tackling homework set. Regular feedback, access to past papers and working on weaknesses I believe contributed to not only her successfully obtaining a high GCSE grade but being offered a space at a grammar school to study Chemistry at A Level.
As a parent it can often be a daunting task deciding which tutor to select. I can confidently recommend Sami to any other parent.
Thank you very much, I thoroughly enjoyed teaching your daughter, very hard working young lady!
From Razia
He is a brilliant and a professional teacher for my daughter.
From Shabnam
Sami is an excellent tutor. Thanks to him, my son has grown in confidence and takes a great interest in his studies now. We will rate him as a 5 star tutor.
Thank you Shabnam!
From Tatiana
Sami is a very professional teacher. His lessons are always well structured and planned, so you get the most out of the lesson as is possible. He uses his own resources, GCSE educational videos he's made himself which are very helpful and interesting. I would highly recommend Sami to other students!
Thank you! I am humbled by your kind words
From Susanna
Sami has tutored my daughter in all 3 sciences for GCSE over the past year. He has worked through the syllabus with her focusing on the areas she struggled with and helping her understand these areas. Her confidence has improved and he has helped her especially with answering questions accurately using the proper terminology. He has provided homework each week and always been professional and organised to deal with. Over the year working with Sami her grades improved from 5,4,5 to 9,8,9, and she is predicted all 9's in the three sciences now.
It has been a pleasure tutoring your daughter and thank you for your kind comments!
From Sunita
Sami challenges my Year 10 daughter to work harder and with the right amount of positive feedback, interesting work and different teaching techniques we are seeing the improvements in her biology achievement. Most of all he is increasing her self belief. She now works hard during the lessons and weekly homework he gives her. I strongly recommend Sami in preparing for GCSEs.
Thank you so much for your positive feedback!
From Lulu
We can not recommend Sami enough as a tutor! He worked closely with our son Oscar on the buildup to his Physics GCSE and took him from a grade 6 to an 8 so we are all thrilled. Sami's approach to teaching was very professional and he always prepared for the classes, with set exercises and tasks to be carried out. Communication with Sami was also fantastic as he was always available to discuss Oscar's progress as well as which areas he wanted to spend time on. As an individual Sami was also very approachable and had a wonderful rapport with Oscar, an extremely professional, enthusiastic and considerate teacher!
It was a pleasure working with Oscar and am thrilled that he got what he worked so hard for! Thank you for placing your trust in me to help Oscar achieve his target grades.
From Maxine
Sami was a reliable, professional and friendly tutor for my son. He was very positive and encouraging and always came prepared for the sessions. Good job!
Thank you for your kind words, I really enjoyed working with your son as well! ☺️
From Sultana
Sami is very professional and knowledgable in the sciences and after just a little over 2 months has improved my son's GCSE Biology and Chemistry grades from 6 to 9 and 6 to 8 respectively. He regularly provides my son with homework/ revision tasks. I would definitely recommend him for tuition.
Your son works very hard and it’s lovely to see him progress! I pray he’ll get the grade 9’s he deserves ☺️
From Shiva
Sami is a friendly, conscientious, focused and inspirational teacher. My son enjoys his sessions a lot.
It is a pleasure helping your son and thank you for your kind words! ☺️☺️
From Anne
Sami tutored our daughter in Chemistry in the months leading up to her Combined Science GCSE. He was very thorough, going through each of the topics to identify where she required additional help, and worked with her to ensure she understood the concepts. Sami also provided practice questions to support her learning. He was always punctual, and an enthusiastic tutor, and we're delighted with the progress that our daughter made in a short period of time.
Hi Anne,
Thank you for your kind words, it was a pleasure tutoring your daughter.
Kind regards, Sami
From Nick
I am completely confident that I could not have found a tutor who would have worked better with Cameron than Sami. Cameron came to us in January this year, which is his GCSE year, to ask for a tutor. He was working at a level 3/4. Sami tutored Cameron once a week from January to June and Cameron is now working at level 5/6. Sami combines a very positive outlook with integrity, very strong personal skills, and a very strong grasp of the subjects he tutors in. He has engaged Cameron in a subject that is not his favourite. I strongly recommend Sami.
Thank you for your kind words, it has been a pleasure working with Cameron and I wish him all the best!
From Juliet
Sami has been working with my son for the past 6 week in the run up to GCSE's. Sami has been a very strong academic support for my son in chemistry & physics,where he is learning knowledge, confidence & techniques. Sami is reliable, flexible & quick to communicate outside of lessons. I would definitely recommend
Very humbled to read that, I appreciate your kind words. It’s been lovely working with you as well!
From Fowzia
My daughter has enjoyed her lessons. He has helped her to feel more confident. Sami teaches extremely well, demands full focus to learn as much as possible in the lessons. He makes sure she understands the concepts before moving on. He comes prepared and leaves adequate material for her study. He is always on time, friendly and very professional.
Thank you so much for your kind comments, makes me so happy to hear your daughter is making the progress required to achieve her potential.
From Carole
Sami has a really friendly, polite manner. He is always on time and is excellent at keeping in touch. My daughter really enjoys her lessons with him and also gets a lot out of them. He is very good about making sure she understands the topics she wants to go over and considers the wider context. He is very good at preparing for the sessions and, if my daughter ends up doing A level Biology, I would call Sami in again without a doubt.
My daughter got an A in biology GCSE and is now studying it for A level. This was a really, really good result and my daughter would not have achieved it without Sami's help.
Thank you for your kind words. I'm so happy to hear she got an A in her GCSE, it was well deserved! Best of luck in her biology A-level but I know she won't need it.
