What My Students Say

  • Great tutor. Understands my daughter and supports her learning.

    Helen, GCSE, 2025

  • Julia has been tutoring my son for A level Maths for 18 months. She is patient, witty and brings out the best in her students. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

    Ruth, A-level, 2025

  • My daughter’s confidence has increased dramatically and her predicted grade has also gone up. Thanks Julia

    Joan, A-level, 2025

  • Me and my daughter decided on Julia as her tutor just a month before her exams in year 13 as a final fixer-upper and I have been very pleased to see the the increase in mathematical technique and reasoning skills, not to mention confidence my daughter has achieved in such a short period of time. Julia was able to adapt to any query my daughter had and provided a variety of questions on that given topic immediately. Overall I am very impressed with her teaching style and the genuine enjoyment my daughter got from these sessions. Julia has been a great tutor.

    Eugene, Core Maths, 2025

  • Julia provided a bulwark of weekly support over about 18 months, while my son got to grips with the increasing challenges posed in his A level Maths syllabus. From a C/D prediction, he got a B, allowing him to take up his firm choice of university place, the one he really wanted. So thank you so much for giving him the skills and confidence to get the grade, Julia, we are all very grateful!

    Tamsin and Clive, A-level, 2025

  • My son really enjoys his online maths lessons with Julia. She is kind and knowledgeable, and makes the lessons fun and interesting for him. Julia helped him to prepare for the Junior Maths Challenge and we were so proud that he got into the Kangaroo. My son is always very energized after his lessons with Julia and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a maths tutor.

    Anna, KS3, 2025

  • Julia has helped my daughter with her IB Maths. IB is a challenging curriculum and my daughter did not find maths easy. Julia grew my daughters skills and confidence in maths, so that she became a real expert in the field and went into the exams with the skills and confidence she needed.

    Sam, IB DP, 2025

  • Julia was exceptional with my son, putting him at ease, growing his confidence, and making him enjoy Maths. He looked forward to his lessons, and wished his school teachers could put things across in the way Julia could, and after sitting his GCSE in the last few days, he is very confident he has passed and improved his grade from his `mock`!

    Gavin, GCSE, 2025

  • Julia is helping my son with his GCSE maths. He has struggled to firmly grip some of the key maths topics and Julia has been a great help reinforcing those topics and building confidence to answer all the questions in test papers. Julia is careful not to put too much pressure on him, as there is already a lot of school work to do, and is nursing him through a very busy period. I am very happy with the support Julia has provided and would recommend Julia’s services whole heartedly.

    Simon, GCSE, 2025

  • My Yr12 son found the step-up from GCSE Maths to A level really challenging. When he started with Julia he was shaky in most areas. Julia identified exactly where his weak areas lay and, in the last 2 months, an hour a week, has strengthened and broadened his knowledge base, giving him his confidence back as he goes into Yr13. It's lovely to see him smile now, rather than grimace, when we ask him how a Maths test went at school! We will be staying with Julia for as long as he needs her support through his final year.

    Tamsin, A-level, 2024

  • Julia has been providing additional tuition for my son since lockdown when it was clear that even in year 7, he needed more expert help than I could provide. I was so lucky to find Julia. She has been a tremendous tutor; encouraging, supporting and challenging him. I’m delighted to say that his maths has continued to improve. My son actually looks forward to his tutoring. I couldn’t recommend Julia enough. An outstanding tutor. I certainly hope to retain her help through to GCSE and even A level if that is his choice.

    Ian, GCSE, 2023

  • Julia is a fabulous teacher. She gives material in a very structured way and makes students to be responsible with a great part of self control. Her methods of explanation are visual and therefore easy to be learned. Many thanks to her!

    Sergii, A-level, 2023

  • I started off looking for a tutor at the start of year 11. My results from the previous year without a maths tutor were anywhere from 4 to 6 and 6 being my best work. i decided to try a maths tutor to help me, i tried three different tutors before julia and none of them taught the way i was looking for, with the correct level of detail, supporting me and making me for once begin to enjoy the subject and want to learn more. they also didnt help my grade`s improve after working with them for a number of months. But the way julia taught, it was the exact way i wanted. she knew when the go back down to basics on specific topics and when to push me, which helped me increase of knowledge of the subject and be comfortable with any sum or problem faced on a maths paper. Julia taught me every possible detail i would need to know for gcse maths and also pushed me with some more advanced questions. julia made me enjoy the subject, improve my grades and inspire me to debate doing maths A level. after working with julia for a number of months, my gardes were begging to turn into 9s and 8s. as i am now expecting a 9 in my gcse results. this all wouldnt be possible without julia and i owe her a big thank you and i couldnt recormend her more as a maths tutor because she really has inspired me.

    Max, GCSE, 2022

  • My daughter has really enjoyed her sessions with Julia. Julia works at her pace and is supportive with new methods that help my daughter`s understanding. She is keen to keep up with the lesson follow up work which always seems to be at the right level and or a reasonable length. Thank you.

    Eilish, A-level, 2022

  • Julia helped our 16 year old son (lower 6th) with his A Level maths during lockdown. I have no difficulty in recommending Julia to other parents - she is professional, conscientious and gave us some very thoughtful and considered advice. Definitely a good option for students struggling with confidence in getting to grips with the jump from GCSE up to A Level maths.

    Patric, A-level, 2021

  • Julia has been excellent with my daughter , who is studying A-level Maths..She helped explain the concepts on some difficult topics very well. My daughter’s confidence has improved greatly, and she really looks forward to the lessons every week!

    Indiana, A-level, 2021

  • Great tutor. Julia explains concepts clearly, is well organized, has excellent subject knowledge and my daughter really enjoys the lesson with her and she is already starting to feel more confident in Maths.

    Amanda, GCSE, 2021

  • My daughter has found her A-level maths lessons and homework with Julia is improving her confidence. Julia`s teaching is excellent, she has a thorough knowledge of the syllabus and she has lots of extra questions they work through in topics my daughter has found tricky.

    Jeffrey, A-level, 2021

  • Fab

    Emma, GCSE, 2021

  • Julia has been a massive help to my son with his A level maths. He finds her lessons interesting and easy to follow. She has motivated him to understand Maths better and work harder to apply that knowledge. As a result his grades have improved and he is much happier. Thankyou!

    Harry, A-level, 2021

  • Very professional and engaging tutor

    Cheryl, GCSE, 2021

  • Excellent! Daughter is very happy with the work and thorough explanations given. Would recommend.

    Julie, A-level, 2020

  • Julia has been a fantastic tutor. She has listened to what I need and planned all the sessions to best prepare me for upcoming tests. I have gone from someone who doesn't enjoy maths and has little confidence to someone who enjoys it and believes in there own ability. This is definitely down to Julia's tuition.

    Greg, Army Entrance Tests, 2020

  • Julia is helping my son with A-level Maths and I`m absolutely delighted. Great rapport, well prepared, patient, flexible and supportive. If you need Maths tuition and Julia's available then go for Julia!

    Pamela, GCSE, 2020

  • Absolutely recommend! Really helped me grasp concepts that I was struggling with and explained them in a simple and effective way that enabled me to progress much further in my maths!

    Erin, A-level, 2020

  • Julia was and excellent tutor for my daughter who was struggling A ‘Level Math`s, without Julia support and help I do not think my daughter would of achieved the grade and subsequently the university of choice without Julia`s help, I would fully recommend Julia to anyone who wishes to improve their Math`s grades.

    Graham, A-level, 2019

  • Julia tutored our daughter for A level maths and further maths. Can`t praise or thank her enough. Julia was really flexible and very quickly identied areas where she could help. The lessons were well planned and structured and gave our daughter loads of confidence in the run up to her exams. Julia was very supportive in her approach and I`d have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who was studying maths.

    Ian, A-level, 2019

  • Thank you for helping Dominic understand different ways of learning. I know he achieved a better grade thanks to you. He developed a great relationship with you and although it was a struggle to send him to school he had fun and enjoyed his time with you. I wish you would have taught him in school.

    Dawn, GCSE, 2019

  • Julia has been excellent for my daughter. Very friendly, explains things very well and uses a variety of methods.

    Paul, GCSE, 2019

  • Very pleased with Julia. She gets on well with my son and understands the level he is at. Very patient and understanding with him. I would highly recommend her.

    Anne, GCSE, 2018

  • Julia is an absolute star, she has helped our son pass his maths and now he has a full time job. She is patient, understanding, and knows exactly how to focus on the areas he was struggling with. I can't recommend her highly enough. Thank you Julia, you are amazing.

    Janet, GCSE, 2018

  • Julia has helped my son tremendously to help pass his A Level maths exams. Julia is an excellent listener and always goes the extra mile to make sure you understand a concept or topic. Julia gives multiple methods to tackle harder questions which gives you the chance to find one that works for you. She has excellent resources to help aid learning including use of up to date text books. Julia is excellent at breaking down complex topics and teaching it in a way that is manageable. Julia is also good at spotting and correcting weaknesses in maths skills which goes a long way in exams. Overall really happy! Thank you Julia!

    Laura, A-level, 2018

  • My two children have now been with Julia for some months and we highly recommend her. She is sensitive to their differences and individual needs. She works with their strengths to engage them in dealing with the more difficult aspect of maths for them. She takes a holisic view of their performance and attainment - looking at how to inspire their interest in the subject as well as sleep and good study habits. And she has been flexible and accommodating with session times.

    Kate, GCSE and A-level, 2018

  • Despite my son`s initial reluctance, Julia has managed to establish a good working relationship and has made a significant improvement in his understanding of several key maths topics. I only wish I had started lessons sooner to give more time to prepare for GCSE exams.

    Raymond, GCSE, 2018

  • Julia is punctual, polite and friendly. My son`s confidence is increasing as the exam gets nearer and we are confident he will get the grade he needs.

    Matthew, GCSE, 2018

  • My daughter has been very well taught by Julia and says that she has really understood topics that she had not acknowledged before. Also, she has had a very good experience. I much recommend Julia as a tutor to all.

    Paolo, GCSE, 2018

  • Julia is absolutely inspirational. Although she is tutoring both of my children, I actually went into the study after she'd finished last week and started to work out the challenge she'd set!!! Two hours I was in there without even realising. Julia is a strong person and uses that strength to positively engage with my children in a way that gets the most from them. They are able to explore topics that their school teacher can`t spend time on, neither of my children`s maths Teachers are particularly good, one actually tells my daughter that she `hasn`t got what it takes to do well`, which is a terrible thing to say. However, Julia is our saviour and she engages my daughter and believes she should be studying for the Higher exam. This is building up her confidence as well as her knowledge. Personally I got on with Julia from the outset and she`s just fantastic.

    Jackie, GCSE and KS3, 2018

  • Julia is very dedicated and she always gives feedback as to how the lesson went. My daughter did very well in her GCSEs.
