James Richardson
Private Mathematics Tutor

"We’ve been working with James for the last six months prepping our sons for common entrance. He’s been great to work with. He’s always punctual and flexible in his schedule which helps. He has engaged with our sons in a very effective manner and that’s brought out the best in them. Maths scores have improved, one has moved up a set and one even says Maths is now one of his favourite subjects. We can’t thanks James enough and would very much recommend him to any other families."

James worked closely with my son throughout Year 13, tutoring him in Mathematics and Further Mathematics. He was very good at identifying where my son needed to improve and keeping him focused on what was required. He set high standards and was clear and consistent in his approach, while also developing a very good working relationship with him. We saw a clear improvement in my son’s performance over the course of the year. James is an excellent tutor and I would be very happy to recommend him.

"Once again, thanks to your sessions, our son has genuinely gained real confidence in maths and yes even his teachers at school have noticed the difference, which says a lot. Off the back of that, he is now thinking about pursuing engineering. He's only 14, so it's early days, but the interest is real and I would love to nurture it. Honestly, this is a big moment for him. He has never really known what he wants to do, so the fact that he's expressing a genuine interest, and it's connected to the confidence he's built through your sessions is huge for us."

"James has worked with our son in Year 11 in Dubai, both online and in person, to fill gaps in his teaching and help him improve his grades and broaden his A-level options. Always punctual, flexible and personable with a great teaching style, James has re-ignited my son’s interest and flair for maths - participation, concentration and grades have all improved significantly!! A huge thanks to James and a 5-star recommendation."

"Our son started working with James when he was really struggling with maths and doubting himself. Since then, his grades have steadily improved, but the biggest change has been in his confidence. He is now beginning to realise his full potential, and his belief in himself has grown so much that he wants to continue studying maths at a higher level. He approaches new topics without fear, asks questions, and actually enjoys his lessons. We are very grateful for the patience, encouragement, and clear explanations James brings to every session, and we would happily recommend him to any family looking for a supportive and effective maths tutor."

"James really helped me get my GCSE maths grade up. He was patient, and the way he taught me showed me how the exam structures its questions. This helped me to get more marks on the bigger mark questions. Whenever I didn't know how to do a question, instead of jumping in and telling me what to do, he gave hints and let me work it out myself."
