Excellent Maths tutor
We came to Tom seeking a tutor for our daughter to help build her confidence with her Maths after she found her first year at senior school challenging. Our daughter has always had a reasonable level of ability in Maths but had not been able to build on that due to a combination of missing some fundamentals in some areas from primary school (possibly due to COVID) and lack of faith in her own abilities and decision making around approaching problems. Our daughter is also a naturally very shy person who finds talking to unfamiliar people or in unfamiliar environments very difficult.
Tom very quickly identified what areas of weakness needed addressing initially for our daughter to help her progress, but possibly more importantly than this his naturally friendly and enthusiastic style allowed her to come out of her shell and build confidence in her own abilities, making her more willing to show what she could do. This has been brilliant for her when she has taken this forward to school leading to her moving from struggling in class to the teachers reporting at the last parents evening of the year that she is now one of the strongest pupils in class.
Once she had made this improvement Tom has always looked to push her forward and keeping her challenged even having her work in classes with GCSE pupils even though she was only in Year 8. All the while Tom has made sure she was comfortable and happy and his infectious positivity, which is what we all love most about Tom, has allowed her to approach this increasing challenge with confidence.
All in all we would definitely recommend Tom and a tutor and have no doubt that he will play a big part in our daughter reaching her true potential when it comes to her GCSEs.
