My son has been working with Alvin to study his English Literature A-Level for over a year now and Alvin has been such an amazing tutor! My son looks forward to his lessons, and his confidence has grown so much in his English skills, development and ability. Alvin is very patient, supportive, understanding, well-organised and gives constructive feedback and also keeps me updated on my son's progress and if there are any concerns or suggestions to improve. Recently, my son's grades have improved to A-B, up from a C-D grade which is great to see. Thank you so much for all your help Alvin, we really appreciate it!
From Alice
Alvin has tutored my twin daughters to help get them through their English literature and language GCSE. They were feeling unconfident and not getting the grades they wanted and after just a couple of weeks of lessons with Alvin they were feeling so much better about English and have gone on to get good grades, feel confident and really enjoy the subject. Thank you Alvin!
From Julie
Alvin tutored my son in his GCSE English, and progressed him from a predicted grade of 3 to achieving a 6 in his exams. Alvin was extremely calm, patient and organised. He was especially mindful of my son’s dyslexia and thoughtful in his preparations. Can’t recommend him highly enough.
It was such a pleasure to teach Theo - I was overjoyed that we got the 6 in the end. Testament to his hardwork!
From Dara
Alvin has been an invaluable asset in helping my son improve his writing and spelling skills as well as prepare for the 11+. He has been patient, supportive, and committed to helping my son achieve his goals. Throughout the tutoring sessions, my son has demonstrated progress in his writing and spelling abilities, and I have noticed an increase in his confidence. Overall, I would highly recommend Alvin for anyone looking for personalised and effective tutoring services for their child.
Thank you Dara! It's been a pleasure tutoring Isaac for his 11+ and beyond.
From Helen
Alvin is an excellent tutor with a very calm presence. His patient methodical approach eases away the stress and worries, while identifying areas of focus to solidify foundations and build confidence. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

We have just met Alvin but he has been super so far and came well recommended from a neighbour too. Smart, professional and patient he is a great tutor. Quickly assessed my daughter and could accurately ascertain her ability and what needs focus. Lucky to have found him and have utmost trust in his ability.
