Alex has tutored my year 13 child for the last year, for A-level computer science. As a parent I've found him very reliable and a great communicator. My son tells me that he enjoys the tutor sessions, that Alex is responsive, explains things well & obviously cares about improving his understanding. I'd happily engage him again & would recommend him.
Alex is teaching my son who is in year 9 and is taking up computer science at GCSE. My son enjoys his lessons. They are a breeze. Alex doesn't waste anytime, and every now and then keeps testing him. He is very friendly and acts more like a buddy than a teacher making lessons enjoyable. He also uses real gcse questions in his teaching. My son likes his sessions a lot. Highly recommended.
I have seen my son grow in confidence since he started lessons with Alex helping him to focus on his weaker areas ahead of sitting his A Level. Having struggled with particular parts of the syllabus it was great to hear that through Alex’s tutoring he was able to fully understand and apply the knowledge gained. Overall Alex has been fantastic and I would highly recommend him.
Having Alex as my A Level Computer Science tutor is a really positive experience. He is approachable and always takes the time to make sure I properly understand each topic, never rushing through anything. The lessons feel well organised and focused on exactly what I need to know! I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a supportive and effective Computer Science tutor!
Alex has been a fantastic tutor for my daughter Theia since she joined in Year 7. She always looks forward to his sessions and finds them engaging and useful. He explains concepts clearly and makes sure she fully understands them, this has helped her stay well ahead of her class.
Alex was my son’s computing tutor. He was incredibly knowledgeable and clearly had a deep understanding of the subject, which he explained in a way that was easy for my son to grasp. He was patient as he took the time to ensure concepts were fully understood. His sense of humour helped keep my son engaged and relaxed while learning. His communication skills were excellent; he kept both me and my son well-informed about progress and areas for improvement. He also provided a wide range of helpful resources that support learning outside of the sessions. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a supportive and effective computing tutor.
Alex has a real talent for explaining complex topics in a clear, simple, and easy-to-understand way, which has made a big difference to my son’s confidence and understanding. In addition to teaching the subject content, Alex also focuses on exam technique, which has been invaluable in preparing for exams. We’re very grateful for all the support Alex has provided throughout GCSE and A Level, and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and supportive Computer Science tutor.
