- I have six years of tutoring experience and currently work as an examiner for both AQA and Edexcel. - My teaching approach is structured, exam-focused, and results-driven. I prioritise clarity, subject mastery, and examiner insight to help students perform at the highest level. - Lessons typically run for 60 minutes. For more advanced students or exam preparation, 90-minute sessions are available. - I tutor students aged 14–19 preparing for GCSE, A-Level, and IB qualifications, with a focus on those targeting top grades and competitive university entry.
Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience lived by the students of John.
Perfect! John provided me with very detailed and thoughtful feedback on my work, and the lessons were very interactive and engaging. He puts a lot of effort into researching beforehand to ensure his advice is relevant and genuinely helpful. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to strengthen their personal statement
Perfect! My daughter has only recently started lessons, but so far we’ve been happy. She’s really enjoying the sessions and finding them super helpful. She likes how interactive they are with Jasleen.
I particularly like that we receive a report after each lesson explaining what they’ve covered and how she’s getting on. Communication has also been excellent from John and always very quick to respond, friendly and professional.
A really positive start and we’re looking forward to continuing.Perfect! Amazing service from John. I asked him to review my son’s A-level history papers to see if requesting a re-mark was worth pursuing. He provided a very clear written analysis and assessment of each question. He also responded fully to all my queries and was enormously helpful. Extremely prompt and thorough service, in a time critical situation. I wouldn’t hesitate to use John again.
Perfect! Insanely incredible - been by my son for the past 5 years; can't thank you enough
- Great student - really enjoyed our session :)John's response :
Perfect! From C grades to Oxford: the tutors who made it happen
When my son started A-level Psychology and Biology, a C was about as good as it was getting. Two years, two subjects, two A grades, and a place at Oxford later, I still can't get over it.
John and Classon worked with him across both subjects without either slipping. Psychology and Biology are completely different beasts and they handled both PERFECTLY and supported Ben throughout. The improvement wasn't overnight but it was consistent, and by the end he actually liked the subjects rather than dreading them just because he loved the tutoring.
Oxford was the dream. We didn't think it was realistic at the C grade stage and the school discouraged Ben from applying. He is now there.
Forever grateful.Perfect! First session with Psychology A level tutor went really well. My daughter left the session feeling she was in really good hands to see her through her A levels. She will continue tutoring from Lower 6th into Upper 6th and A levels. Tutor immediately identified her strengths and weaknesses and drew up a plan to assist her studies. Thank you.
- Lovely session - very positive experience!John's response :

Words are just beyond me for how much our family has been helped over the years - could not recommend enough!
John was absolutely fab - never felt so supported before - he carried our four children from Year 7 all the way to university - couldn't recommend him enough.
John is absolutely brilliant. He’s been tutoring my son Aarav for GCSE Psychology, and the change has been noticeable right from the first lesson. Aarav says he’s learned more with John in one session than in weeks at school. John explains concepts clearly, always checks understanding, and brings in great real-life examples. He’s punctual, easy to communicate with, and genuinely passionate about what he does. Worth every penny.
We’ve had a few tutors over the years, but none like John. He’s been working with my son Theo, and the results speak for themselves — better grades, better attitude, and most importantly, less stress for all of us. John gets through to Theo in a way that teachers at school just haven’t. His mix of professionalism and genuine care is rare. I’d recommend him without hesitation.
John has been incredible for my daughter, Amira, who’s in Year 13 studying A Level Economics. She was really struggling with evaluation and structuring 25-mark essays. John immediately pinpointed the gaps and helped her build a clear, practical approach. Her confidence has grown massively—she went from a C in her mocks to an A in her latest paper. He explains complex ideas like market failure and monetary policy in a way that actually sticks. Honestly, I don’t think she’d be aiming for an A* without his support.
We started working with John a few months ago for my son, Leo, and I honestly can't praise him enough. Leo was struggling with confidence in maths, but John completely turned that around. He’s patient, clear, and somehow makes even the driest topics engaging. Leo actually asks when his next session is—something I never expected. John’s support has gone beyond academics—he’s helped rebuild Leo’s belief in himself. We’re so grateful we found him.
John has been an absolute gift to our family. From the first lesson, he connected with Jed in a way that built confidence and made learning feel achievable. He explains things clearly, never talks down, and somehow makes every session feel productive without pressure. Jed actually looks forward to lessons now—something I never thought I’d say. We’ve seen real progress, not just in results but in attitude. I recommend John without hesitation. He genuinely cares, and it shows.
John tutored my child for over a year and made a real difference. He’s reliable, communicates clearly, and adapts his teaching to suit the student. He builds trust quickly and keeps lessons focused and effective. I’d recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a calm, consistent, and skilled tutor.
John has been an exceptional tutor for my child. From the first session, it was clear he brings deep subject knowledge, professionalism, and a calm, focused teaching style that builds real confidence. As a parent, I appreciated how clearly he communicated progress and tailored each lesson to target weak areas. My child not only improved their grades but also started to enjoy the subject more. With his background as an examiner and consultant, John brings credibility and insight that’s hard to find. I highly recommend him to any parent seeking serious academic support for their child.
John is one of the most capable and committed tutors I’ve worked with—his rare combination of academic excellence, examiner insight, and real-world experience makes him an outstanding mentor for any student aiming for top results. I’ve known John through both academic and professional settings, and his approach is consistently sharp, thoughtful, and tailored to individual students. He doesn’t just teach the syllabus—he helps students understand what examiners are looking for, and how to deliver it under pressure. I would recommend him without hesitation to any student or parent looking for results-driven, high-quality support.
