With under six weeks to go before History A level, Alex engaged with my son with a calm and well structured approach. The goal was to help my son improve the structure and clarity of his essay writing to aim for a solid B, which meant raising his existing marks around the C level. We engaged in about ten sessions with Alex over the period and he really strengthened my son’s understanding of how to aim for higher level marks and sharpen how he conveyed his history knowledge. The resulting B grade was a great relief and helped secure my son’s place at his Russell Group university. I would highly recommend Alex.

Thank you for these very warm words Rachel. It was a real pleasure to work with Ferdi. He brought engagement and good humour to those last few challenging weeks, and I'm absolutely delighted that this was reflected in his grade improvement and university entrance. I wish him all the best.
I find the tutoring sessions with Alex very helpful. He is clear, consistent and provides excellent feedback (both verbal and written) that allows me to intellectually elevate my essays.

Thanks for these warm words, Helena. It's a pleasure to work with you and I look forward to continuing.
Alexander has been very helpful. My son is now getting all the help he needs for his A level history this year. The lessons are improving his confidence and he is enjoying them.

Thanks Sharon. I look forward to continuing to work with Robbie. It's a pleasure to work with a student who shows such commitment.
I’ve been studying with Alex for 10 months in preparation for a Master’s in Shakespeare Studies. During this time, we’ve typically had hour-long sessions reviewing essays, including a 4000-word application essay on King Lear. These weekly sessions have helped me stay consistent and motivated with my course preparation. Alex has significantly helped me improve the argumentation, clarity, and sophistication of my writing. Alex is professional, knowledgeable, and encouraging. I would recommend Alex to anyone looking to enhance their essay writing skills. I’m very thankful for his help and have thoroughly enjoyed sharing and discussing my essays. We’ve covered a number of plays, spanning a wide range of topics and themes. For every essay, Alex has provided valuable feedback and helped me write essays I can be proud of.

My son has received online A level Classical Civilisation tution from Alex for about a month. The difference his lessons have made to my son have been remarkable. He has helped him understand how to articulate his ideas and arguments in a chronological and structured order. Alex is very knowledgeable on this subject and a great teacher, My son is really enjoying his lessons and looking forward to the ones he has left before he sits his exam. I cannot recommend Alex enough if your child needs help with A level Classical Civilisation!

Thank you so much Sara. It's a pleasure to work with Joseph and I look forward to continuing.
Alex is a truly exceptional tutor. He is both highly knowledgeable and adaptable and my daughter is receiving a genuinely well rounded education under his patient guidance. Primarily focused on the subject of literature, Alex delves into the rich philosophical, historical and political contexts and skilfully brings each extract and poem to life. Alex's weekly sessions have ignited a passion in my daughter and she looks forward each week to their lively discussions which are centred around a selection of texts.

Thank you Charlotte for these lovely words. It's a pleasure to work with your daughter, who is so engaged in her studies, and I look forward to continuing.
After getting a not so favourable result in History mock exams, it knocked my daughter’s confidence by a lot. So, I suggested to get a tutor to help her get that confidence back. It is not nice seeing your child going through this pressure and stress so you do what you can to help. We searched together and read reviews and in the end my daughter chose Alex. One thing with my daughter, if she doesn’t get on with a teacher or not learning or progressing, she will soon let me know and stop the sessions. We started with 5 sessions, and renewed for another 5, which will take her up to her A levels. She is back to her good self to the point she got two commendations in history in the last month. She is happy and so am I. Thank you Alex. As a parent I am very grateful for all you do to help our child.

Thanks Jonny. It's been a pleasure to work with you and I'd be delighted to continue in future.
Alex saved me from an essay crisis! I was in dire need of help right before class and Alexander swooped in to provide an in-depth walkthrough lesson; he went through the key talking points, concepts and historiography in a well-structured and concise way that anyone could understand... even me! He was very courteous and professional the entire time, I'm very impressed and I can't wait for our lessons in the future.

Thanks Mary Ann for these lovely words. It was a pleasure to help and I look forward to continuing.
Alexander had tutor my daughter for her Classical Studies A Level. In 2 months he manage to strengthened her command of Level 4 grading criteria, from Level 3. My daughter struggled with essay writing. Although she had acquired the necessary material data to answer the questions it was still difficult for her to put them in good structure and fully focus on the the question with clear arguments. Working with Alexander help her to grasp the skills to improve her writing. We recommend Alexander skills for those who need to improve their writing skills. My daughter will continue to collaborate with him for History A Level aiming for a Level 5 grading criteria

Thank you for such lovely feedback, Ioana. It's been an absolute pleasure to tutor your daughter. She's worked with great intelligence and conscientiousness, getting better at her essay-writing writing all the time. Her enthusiasm for Classical Civ. has been a joy to see, and I look forward to working with her on her History papers in the coming months.
Really helpful advice- went above and beyond for me. The night before my dissertation was due he was working with me until 5am. So grateful for all his help and support.

Thanks Connor. I'm very glad to have helped!
Alex provided my daughter with remote A' Level tuition in both Religious Studies and Sociology. She found the lessons with him informative, stimulating and enjoyable. Alex was patient and thoughtful. By working with Alex, my daughter gained confidence and saw a significant improvement in both the structure and content of her written work. Her discussions with Alex have improved her analytical skills and allowed her to express her opinions more effectively. We have no hesitation in highly recommending Alex to you.
Tutor response
Thanks very much indeed, Sarbani. It was a pleasure to work with Mya and I wish her all the best in the future.
Alexander is very polite and professional. He has kept in touch regularly with me regarding my son's tuition. My son has only been working with him for a month but Alexander is really helping him with essay techniques and how to answer his history essay to gain the maximum marks.
Tutor response
Thanks Sara. It's a pleasure working with your son and I look forward to continuing.
Alex was quick to respond to any queries I had and flexible in terms of tutoring style to suit my son’s needs. My son thoroughly enjoyed his A level History tutor session and feels sure he’ll learn a lot from Alex over the next couple of years. Thank you.
An excellent start - Alex is really responsive, has fantastic subject knowledge and is offering valuable advice on how to improve essay technique
Alexander has been one of the most fantastic professionals I have ever worked with. Not only has his support been of highest quality, he has also been highly conscientious to deliver support in short periods of time, and flexible to changing circumstances on my part. In total I have worked with Alexander for around 9 months, and in that time my performance within my undergraduate degree has increased substantially. However, perhaps more importantly, my understanding of various skills core to my degree has drastically risen: effective prose, critical analysis and structural decision making. He is a fantastic tutor and I will continue to work with him during my final year at university - which lies ahead.
