Master Maths, Languages, and Chess at Your Own Pace
Helping students excel in Maths, French, Spanish, Italian, and Chess through tailored lessons designed for success.
‘Matthew tutored my son James in French from Christmas 2010 until May 2011. He only achieved just under 50% in his French mock exam but went on to achieve an A grade in his final French International GCSE examination with only 5 months of his tuition. Matthew as well as revising the grammar in detail with James set past papers in his lessons under exam conditions to improve his standard. We are therefore very happy to recommend Matthew to any other parents wanting tuition as he pays great attention to detail in both his explanations and spotting mistakes in a way and to a degree not seen by many tutors.’

‘I had chess lessons from Matt over a number of weeks. I’m an adult Club-level player.
Matt’s lessons were great, especially his lessons on opening preparation and the queen’s gambit for white.
I have undoubtedly benefited from his coaching and I’m sure others who wish to improve will also.
Highly recommended.
Ben.’

‘My son thoroughly enjoys his Spanish tuition sessions with Matthew and even more so that the session ends with a chess session. Matthew takes his time and explains things very well to my 6 year old. Thank you!’

‘Matthew is a good Chess tutor and great with kids. My daughter won the school Chess tournament too. He is flexible in arranging lessons which is a bonus given the heavy term time school curriculum.’

‘Mathew is an excellent tutor who helped my son with his Maths and French studies. He quickly assessed my sons needs for upcoming exams and identified and addressed the specific areas where he was struggling and created learning plan which has helped him considerably in both subjects. He is also very organised, setting questions to be completed before the next visit and tackling all the key learning points. Throughout, he gave constructive feedback on how the tutoring was progressing and what my son needed to do. My son was very grateful for the help Mathew provided and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for an experienced tutor to help their son or daughter.’

‘Matthew is an incredibly knowledgable and patient teacher. I’ve taken lessons for coming up to a year and have greatly expanded my knowledge of the Italian language. The lessons are not only informative but enjoyable. It also has been a refresher on basic English grammar which was an unexpected benefit! Haha. I would recommend his teaching to anyone who wants to really build a strong foundation of the Italian language! Thanks Matthew for all your help.’

‘Matthew tutored me Italian and had great knowledge of the language, especially the grammar. Before Matthew I only used duolingo and my Italian definitely got better once I had some tutoring sessions. He makes things easy to understand, especially the grammar and so I would recommend Matthew as an Italian tutor.’

‘I write to confirm that Matthew tutored my daughter in GCSE French. She achieved a grade A*. He was thorough in his preparation. His subject knowledge was good and he was always very reliable in terms of attendance and punctuality.’

‘I was searching for a Spanish tutor for my daughter who was predicted an E grade at GCSE and found Matthew’s details on a website. From the very beginning Matthew was professional and helpful and willing to go the extra mile (which was very helpful as my daughter was not keen on the subject at all but needed an improved grade). With Matthew’s help, my daughter gained a B grade which is more than we had hoped for! Matthew is an excellent tutor and I would highly recommend him!’

‘Matthew has done a brilliant job teaching French to our 14 years old son, by using methodical approach when learning the verbs. He gave David lots of confidence and positive outlook on the subject.
Thank you, Matthew!’
