David was great tutor that encouraged me to stop overthinking and to trust in my writing ability, after a year it got me to a GCSE grade 5 in literature and 4 in language after previously getting grade 2s! I am extremely grateful for David's help and highly recommend.

David's a very understanding tutor who was a huge help in improving my English language and literature GCSEs. Thanks to him, I got a grade 9 in both subjects. Would recommend!

David is an excellent tutor. He managed to get my son's IGCSE grade up from a 3 to 6 in just 12 weeks. My son really enjoyed his lessons and David made everything clear and easy to understand. He helped with anxiety around the exam process and my son not only went in far more confident, but achieved much better than we had hoped. I would highly recommend him!

We have been working with David for the past four months for 11+ English and Verbal Reasoning tuition for our daughter, who is currently in Year 5 and we have been very pleased with the support he has provided.
David has excellent subject knowledge and a clear understanding of the 11+ exam style and expectations. He explains the different question types very well and focuses on teaching the techniques and methods needed to approach them, including how to tackle unfamiliar vocabulary and more challenging comprehension questions, rather than just completing practice papers.
He sets regular homework and provides helpful feedback, which allows us as parents to understand the areas our daughter needs to focus on. We have noticed a real improvement in her confidence and in the way she approaches questions.
David is patient and encouraging with our daughter, while also keeping her focused and disciplined during lessons. He is always punctual, reliable and present for every session.
Overall, we would highly recommend David to any parent looking for a knowledgeable, organised and supportive 11+ tutor.

David did a great job in tutoring my child. He took them from a grade 6 in both English literature and language to an 8 and a 9 in literature and language respectively. If I had to choose a tutor to help a future child it would be David, he’s a great tutor, with all the knowledge necessary to achieve top marks, aswell as being friendly and understanding.

A very enthusiastic and straight to the point tutor for English, and I would definitely recommend him.

I think David is a very brilliant tutor as I have improved so much since my first lesson with him. He also explains things straight to the point, especially the techniques we need to use which helps me improve extremely quickly. 5 stars!

Mr David is an exceptional teacher for our child preparing him for English writing. Our son in Year 4 was struggling with writing formations and was extremely slow. The school and we tried various ways to get him to write better, but nothing helped. Within just three to four classes, our son's writing went through a remarkable transformation in terms of both quality and speed. His writings have been shortlisted at school competitions.
Also Mr David, went over and beyond in guiding us with additional questions regarding 9+/11+prep and sharing material. Highly recommend him !

David has been a fantastic English tutor, helping our son prepare for the 11+ exams. He is professional, well-organised, and always brings thoughtful, challenging materials that suit our son's level and goals. Their sessions have been focused and enjoyable - our son genuinely looks forward to them each week! We've seen real improvement in his confidence and ability, and feel well on track for the St Paul’s and City of London exams later this year. We would happily recommend David to anyone looking for strong, reliable 11+ support.

David is an incredible English Teacher. At the start of Year 10, my daughter was targeted at a grade 5 in English and struggling to find a way to connect to the subject. But thanks to David’s wonderful teaching she has not only improved immensely but she has also excelled. By the end of the year, she was achieving grade 8s and 9s consistently in her mocks.

What makes David brilliant is his unique teaching approach that has changed how she thinks about extracts and created a deeper and critical level of thinking when analysing texts. My daughter finds the lessons engaging, thought - provoking and enjoyable through David’s techniques of breaking complex ideas. This has ignited confidence and a feeling of preparedness in my daughter when writing.

Thank you very much!

Best Tutor! My son is preparing entrance exam for Sevenoaks and Eltham college. David taught my son the method to answer English Comprehension and writing. My son has improved a lot just in one month and he passed Sevenoaks school exam and got scholarship from Eltham.

If you want a serious professional who can lift a student immediately, who knows the board requirements for doing well, and who can tailor tuition to the precise needs of the kid, then David is the man. My son is bright, but he was not well taught in English. David turned it all around within a matter of weeks and set him on track to a great grade. Don't mess around - go with David. Highly recommend.

David has been an excellent tutor for my daughter. His lessons are well-structured and tailored to her needs, helping her improve both her understanding of the subject and her ability to approach it with more clarity. He takes the time to explain challenging concepts clearly and always provides constructive, actionable feedback. My daughter enjoys the sessions and has become more engaged with her studies. David’s thoughtful and positive approach has made a real difference, and I would highly recommend him!

David has been a fantastic tutor for our daughter helping her to prepare for her English Language GCSE exams. He has a superb knowledge of what the different papers require and our daughter has made exceptional progress with David and massively increased in confidence. He is fantastic at spotting where students are dropping marks and giving practical advice on how to approach the exams. Our daughter has really enjoyed the lessons and it has been such a positive experience! Thank you.

David started teaching my daughter when she was in Year 10. Sophie was verbally fluent in English but could not write well, as English is her third language, and she did not have a good grasp of the written grammar. Over the two years, David worked magic and Sophie received a predicted score of 9 for her last mock exam this year. She likes David's lessons a lot and said that he could accurately point out places in her writing where she needs to improve, and considered David to be even better than her regular school teacher. As Sophie is finishing up her IGCSE exams this summer, we decided to ask David to help out with our son's English also, on Sophie's recommendation. He is THAT good!

David has a wonderful way of sifting through the work and finding what actually needs to be taught to my son. I like the way he interacts with my 10 year old and treats him like a little person. He gives regular homework and makes sure that this and any other extra work done by him is reviewed and feedback is provided. They work together as a team and David I feel has the best of intentions to help my son achieve his goal.

David tutored our daughter a while ago for 11+ English. I always found him to be very professional, organized and methodical in his approach. He always had a good supply of appropriate material that challenged her and pushed her to the next level. The two of them clicked very quickly and our daughter progressed very well. David is friendly and related well with her. Our daughter really enjoyed her sessions with him. She was accepted by all the top private and Grammar schools that we applied to. An excellent tutor who I definitely recommend!

We've had a fantastic experience with David in preparation for the 11+ exams. The support with English and creative writing has been outstanding. My boys have grown so much in confidence — not only in comprehension and creative writing, but also in tackling tricky verbal reasoning questions with logic and speed. Each lesson is engaging, well-structured, and tailored to suit [his/her] individual needs. I'm truly grateful for the encouragement, patience, and expertise David brings to every session. Highly recommended!

David ensures that my son understands the content, very enthusiastic, professional, clear and organised.
He is well prepared for each lesson.
My son has developed very well with English language since he started with David.

David works with my son (who has got dyslexia and ASD). David is very professional with an enthusiastic approach to teaching, and most importantly he is able to deliver the lessons in an effective and very engaging way. My son really enjoys learning English with David and looks forward to his lessons.
