I have extensive experience over 34+ years in both the public and private sectors (in the UK, New Zealand & China) as a curriculum leader, classroom teacher, small group ESL lesson tutor - as well as my own private tuition throughout that period with all ages and abilities of students.
Some of my styudents have been with me for 4 years. In some cases, I have taught several kids and the parents in the same family.
For the last 5+ years I have been teaching online. Once again, I am now totally freelance.
All of my students have been at the very centre of my purpose. I model open mindedness and curiosity. I develop confident, relaxed progress on learning objectives in a positive, friendly yet focused environment. I attract parents and students that seek that style and pathway forward. I worked with Sasha for two years until they left Shanghai:
To Whom it May Concern
It is with pleasure that I write this letter of recommendation for Gary R..
Gary has been a tutor for our son Sasha for the last 2 years, 2 times each week to boost Sasha's Mathematic achievements and to help in adapting to a new curricula system (as a result of changing a school internationally). Sasha was struggling with stress, performing low at school, especially at Math.
Though Gary's careful support during that period our son gained confidence and reached a level of aptitude in Math and other subjects (like Science) that would have seemed impossible 2 years ago.
Gary is a very professional and competent teacher. Along with being organized and prepared, Gary has the ability to quickly build a positive rapport with his students and he is well-liked and respected by them. He is a teacher who inspires the children with his intelligence, enthusiasm, humor and creativity.
I would highly recommend Gary R. as a private tutor.
Sincerely, Iryna Severenchuk Guinot
I have worked in the smallest and the largest schools; the most humbling special needs schools and the high-pressure academic variety. I have worked with children from age 3 to 15 of many nationalities and socio-economic backgrounds.
I have decided to see if TutorExtra has improved in the last 2 years since I first looked at it. Fingers crossed.

AUGUST 2009 – JULY 2010
FUDAN WANKE EXPERIMENTAL PRIVATE SCHOOL, SHANGHAI
A completely innovative and extraordinary role with the duties of a lead Kindergarten teacher in the Bi-lingual ‘C-BAN’ learning a mixture of Chinese, US, British and Singaporean curriculum in a special programme - at the time available only to Non-Chinese Nationals within this Private Chinese School. With three classes, C-Ban was in its infancy with few resources, no organisational structure and much innovation and initiative were required. I introduced and demonstrated the 'radical' concept of child-centred education. I created a reading library of hundreds of new books, with no support funding or training. I introduced the concept and the reality of integrating Educational Support Professionals, such as Educational Psychologists to support students. I introduced the soft carpet /soft furnishings area with the eager help of parents. I modernised the classroom layout away from the 'rows of desks' approach. Now there are twelve classes (- and a library). They have ‘modernised’ and now thrive.

Helping Students Build Confidence, Achieve Success & Unlock Their Potential
As a qualified UK teacher with 15 years of experience, I specialize in Primary, Secondary, and GCSE education across maths, English, and science. Holding a PGCE and QTS, I have taught in mainstream schools, special educational needs (SEN) provisions, and diverse learning environments, ensuring that students of all backgrounds and abilities receive the support they need to succeed.
I have extensive experience working with students with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and other special educational needs (SEN), using tailored strategies to help them overcome learning barriers. Every child learns differently, and my individualized approach ensures that each student gains confidence, develops a deep understanding of key concepts, and excels academically.
Why Choose My Approach? ✅ Personalized, Student-Centered Learning
Many students struggle in traditional classroom settings because they don’t receive individual attention. I take a tailored approach, designing lesson plans that cater to each student’s unique learning style. Whether they need reinforcement in certain subjects or are preparing for major exams, my structured yet flexible lessons ensure maximum engagement and retention.
✅ Building Confidence & Independence
Success in academics isn’t just about getting the right answers—it’s about building confidence and problem-solving skills. Many students fear maths or struggle with English because they lack self-belief. I focus on instilling a growth mindset, helping students feel capable, motivated, and ready to take on challenges.
✅ Expert Exam Preparation – GCSE, A-Level & Beyond
Preparing for GCSEs, A-Levels, and entrance exams can be stressful for both students and parents. My tutoring approach includes: ✔ Effective revision strategies – Teaching students how to study smarter, not harder. ✔ Time management techniques – Helping them structure revision for maximum efficiency. ✔ Exam technique coaching – Training students on how to approach different types of questions. ✔ Regular progress assessments – Identifying strengths and areas for improvement.
✅ Proven SEN & Autism Support
Having taught in SEN provisions and mainstream schools, I understand the unique challenges faced by students with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and processing difficulties. I provide: ✔ Sensory-friendly learning techniques to help students focus and stay engaged. ✔ Structured lessons with clear routines to reduce anxiety and build consistency. ✔ Patience, encouragement, and a positive learning environment where students feel valued and supported.

Science Clinic Private Tutors was founded in 2010. Our vision was to help struggling children understand the concepts of the major subjects which are sought after by many colleges & universities. Our tutoring was mainly in the main subjects (Maths, all 3 Sciences & English Language) to exam students only. Because of the huge demand of tutoring in all year groups, we now teach students across the board from Primary (KS1 & KS2) through to GCSE, A-level and University. We were luck to have had colleagues we share the same vision with join us. Now we can teach all subjects from Primary through to GCSE, College /A-levels and Science & Maths at University level. All our teachers / tutors are graduates and qualified teachers with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) who understand the National Curriculum. Some of them are examiners at GCSE and A-level, which means they know the exam techniques students need to answer the exam questions properly and get better grades. Within the team, we have professionals with very high qualifications ie Masters Degrees (MSc / MA) and PhDs in various subjects. We can, therefore, be confident to say we are professionals who are dedicated to what we do with proven records in the UK’s most entrance and national exams. We are a tutoring organisation that is defined by its professionalism. Our aim is to provide a personal service. This makes us very different from most tutoring companies that just offer a platform for tutors and students to meet. We speak to clients so that we can match them with the most appropriate tutor for their needs. When this happens, the results can be remarkable & confidence grows. We personally know all our tutors and all have had DBS checks and their qualifications checked before we take them on. We are also a member of The Tutors’ Association (TTA) which was formed in 2013 to provide standards to the tutoring industry.

My name is Lydia J. ( also known as " The Maths Specialist"). I am a creative, outgoing and experienced tutor with a contagious passion for maths whose mission is to infect every student I meet with the love for maths.
I have been teaching maths since I was 17 and I am 44 years old now. It's been 27 years since I first started teaching maths. If you or your child struggles with maths and you want results then you have come to the right person.
The study of mathematics, like the Nile, begins in minuteness but ends in magnificence - Charles Caleb Cotton.
These days, anyone who hears me say, "I love maths" thinks I've always loved maths but that's far from the truth. I struggled with maths and even failed my GCE in maths ( an equivalent of GCSE).
So many teachers tried teaching me but I just could not grasp the concepts because they used the same methods I struggled with at school and never worked on finding out what the cracks were in my knowledge. A house built on a faulty foundation cannot stand the test of time.
One day I met the greatest teacher in the world, in my opinion, because not only was he able to teach me maths but he made me love maths. The quote above pretty much sums up how he taught me. He started from the basics, no assumptions made and he used all sorts of new methods to teach me. He showed me that there were so many ways to learn any topic.
I retook my GCE in maths and got the highest grade possible, won an award in maths, studied engineering, taught other students that were tagged "hopeless in maths" and got my daughter ready for her GCSE in maths at a very young age.
It doesn't matter how 'bad' any one is at maths, if they have a desire to learn and time, I can teach them. I am not just any other maths tutor. I am one that produces results.
Teaching is my third and final career and I love it. I have over 25 years experience of helping students of all ages and abilities achieve their goals. I am a qualified teacher with 14 years in classrooms, teaching English and law, and I'm also a qualified journalist and solicitor. I found school very challenging myself, so I completely understand why many very bright students don't do as well as they could at school. The truth is, school isn't always the best place to learn. The current situation means that by September, most of the current cohort of students in year 10 are not going to know what has hit them. GCSE has become increasingly difficult since 2008 and the 2015 reform means that it is exceedingly difficult to get above grade 6. I anticipate that this year's year 11 cohort hoping to study English at A level will be similarly shellshocked. The gap between GCSE and A level is enormous and even students with a predicted grade 8 or 9 are likely to find the A level daunting to say the least. I offer one to one support online using facetime, zoom and Google docs for students able to type.
I also offer small group preparation for both next year's GCSE and A levels in both language and literature to ensure that in September they hit the ground running. These sessions are done using zoom or at my home in Ealing. Tutoring Experience:- Since 1998 I have helped literally hundreds of students to:-
* achieve grade A/A*/9 in GCSE English both literature and language;
* get into a wide range of top London schools both private and selective grammar schools including St Paul's Girls, St Paul's Boys, Henrietta Barnett, Tiffin Girls, Eton, UCS, as well as Merchant Taylor, Godolphin and Latimer, Haileybury, Hampton, John Lyons, Notting Hill and Ealing, Kew House, St James', Kings College Wimbledon, Haberdashers Askes, St Helen's Northwood, Northwood College, Royal Masonic, Habs Girls, Harrow School, Northbridge House, St Augustines, Brighton College and Latymer Upper * win scholarships to Harrow School, UCS Northwood College and Notting Hill and Ealing High. I also help children aged 4 and above who are struggling with English, French or maths. In 2019 I had five GCSE students who attend state private schools, and three who attend private schools including St. Pauls Boys; six 11+ primary students and four home-schooled students aged 7, 12, 14 and 16.
I am pleased to say that out of the 8 GCSE students, 7 got grade 9 for both English language and English literature. The other student got 9 for literstliterature for language As for my 11+ students, in February this year all 6 of them got places at their first choice schools which were NHE, Latymer Upper, Kew House, Tiffin Girls, Henrietta Barnett and Northwood College. I also see several adults on a regular or ad hoc basis, for example Claudette who is 58. Initially I helped her with GCSE English in 2016. I then supported her during her Access course. She's now halfway through her degree in physiotherapy at Birkbeck.
Background information:- My first teaching experience was as a volunteer, teaching Adult Literacy from 1985-1987 while working as a freelance journalist.
When I completed my LPC in 1994 I started tutoring law while waiting for a training contract to manifest. Halfway through that training contract I realised that I preferred working as a tutor to working in law and left law.
From 1995-97 I taught at a local boys preparatory school - Durston House - while completing my vocational training part time as a solicitor. I began tutoring fulltime in 1998 when I realised that although working in the law is fascinating, it's not a lifestyle I want, and I have been tutoring ever since. From 1999 to 2012 I was teaching English fulltime in a sixth form college which specialised in English at all levels from Functional Skills and IELTS, to academic English i.e. GCSE, Access, and A Level language, literature and lang/lit. I continued to see a few private students, and in 2012 I returned to fulltime tutoring. Ad hoc help:- Apart from tutoring, I also help adult students with their theses and dissertations, teach them how to edit their work properly, how to ensure that they are not straying off topic, and how to improve their vocabulary and expression. I can do this online or face to face. Help with personal statements, applications for research grants and CVs is available face to face or via Google docs. Children- and adults- with disabilities:- In the last 22 years I have taught literally thousands of students and many of them have had disabilities including deaf students, visually impaired students and students with cerebral palsy, as well as students with learning difficulties including AS, APD, dyslexia, dyspraxia, dysgraphia and ADD/ADHD. I have studied the growing problem of both ESOL and native speaking English students who have difficulty in drawing inferences from what they read. My method of teaching uses a very carefully selected range of texts to focus on intensely in order to determine whether further investigation is appropriate. I am not qualified to diagnose autism but I have successfully taught many students on the spectrum. Tutoring Approach:- Alongside teaching, I have studied the psychology of learning and have many tools at my disposal to teach the skills that today's students and job seekers need. If you are struggling in school, college or university, it is not your fault. My job is to ensure that you do not need a tutor as quickly as possible while offering ongoing support if necessary. I believe that given the right atmosphere, attitude and support, anyone can succeed. A stressful environment makes learning almost impossible, so my lessons are extremely relaxing. Students are usually amazed at how fast the time passes. At the end of the session I ensure the student understands everything covered in that session, and may ask for the student to complete an appropriate length homework to bring to the next session. My motto is "self talk determines destiny" and I help students to unlearn the idea that they can't do something. My approach is first to ensure that I am the right tutor for the student. The first session is designed for the student (and their parents) to assess me, as well as for me to work out the student's current level of ability and their learning style. In subsequent sessions the most important thing is to ensure that the student has no gaps in their understanding of the subject and what is required. So I always begin at the beginning and usually students progress very quickly through the first phase. Once they are reasonably confident and have caught up with their school's expectations, I begin to stretch them, at their own pace. I believe that students want to do well but are self-conscious and dislike asking for help at school as it makes them feel stupid. Lack of basic understanding results in lack of self confidence which can easily develop into becoming withdrawn or disruptive in class, or hating the subject. It is quite easy to turn the student's attitude around once they realise that they can succeed, so I do a lot of confidence building exercises and use praise and humour to help them see what they are doing wrong and what they are doing right. As a result of this, their self esteem is enhanced and they become more willing to contribute in class and take risks, rather than sitting in the back of the classroom praying for the time to pass. I use my own resources which I have developed by studying assessment criteria and objectives of all of the boards (AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC) as well as the specifics of GCSE and IGCSE. For 11+ and CE I use a wide range of texts that are demanding and lend themselves to students learning how to explore linguisruc effects. I prefer to tutor at the student's home because I think students feel more secure and relaxed in their own home, however students can of course, come to me if this suits them better. Parents are welcome to sit in on sessions as long as the student feels comfortable with that. I am always happy to consider teaching friends at the same time to keep costs down (max group size 4 students), and am happy to negotiate an appropriate rate for group sessions. Such sessions take place in my home. Please note the following:- 1. I charge a supplement of £7.50 to travel upto 3 miles as well as a residents parking ticket if necessary or reimbursement for parking costs;
2. I require a minimum of 48 hours notice of cancellation or payment in full (except for travel time) under all circumstances including sudden illness.Whenever possible I will offer a session later in the week but this is not always possible.
3. On Sundays I only teach from my home;
4. For distances beyond 3 miles radius of my home, the minimum session is an hour and a half. This can be shared between siblings, or between subjects eg maths and English, maths and French or English and French;
5. For distances beyond 5 miles radius of my home, I charge for one hour of my time, or an uber in both directions, whichever is cheaper, instead of £7.50. These sessions are also a minimum of an hour and a half, which can be shared between siblings or subjects;
6. All GCSE and A level students are welcome to send me essays of upto 1000 words to comment on between sessions. There is no charge.for this service. Finally, if you would like references from current or previous students (or their parents) please just ask.

• Emma, mother of Peter (2012) and Alex(2014) and Michael (2016):
Peter and Alexandra do not think they would have got the grades they did without your help and guidance. Alex commented that you really helped her with how to answer the questions to time more effectively and how to interpret the poetry in particular. Peter really benefited from you teaching him how to look at things in a different way, You gave him the confidence to write which he didn't have before.
Thank you so much for your help at the last minute. Michael got A for Literature and A for language.
•Shivam C, December 2013 successful applicant to Princeton:
Laura helped me with all the essays over whole weekends perfecting the essays. We were working in a very short time-frame. She was always very patient. Her calm demeanour and attention-to-detail was a huge aid for me to get into Dartmouth College (best undergraduate teaching in America). I would recommend anyone to get Laura to help them with any essays they have. She would be equally splendid as a teacher in English writing skills or grammar, and I am very glad that I had the opportunity to work with her.
