EXCELLENT Based on 89 reviews Posted on Toni AzulayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sam tutored my son for his Physics A-level - a tough subject with so many aspects. Sam broke it down into manageable parts and identified areas that needed more work. He took note of my son’s school test results to help tailor lessons. A very holistic approach to tutoring, with tips and recommendations - more than just the 1-hour lesson. He was always available to communicate with. His fees are pretty high, but my son passed his A-level and got the uni of his choice, so definitely money well spent. I would highly recommend. Thanks, Sam.Posted on Harry AzulayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sam tutored me for my physics A-level, which led me to getting the grade I needed to get into uni. He was very helpful and supportive. Would recommend.Posted on Coco MuTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sam is a fantastic physics tutor! He is really good at breaking down the theories and teaching tricks and easy methods to approach problems. With his help I have successfully gained an A* for my y12 end of year exam!Posted on Nusrat SharmeenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My son has been tutored by Sam for the last 1 and a half years. He has been an amazing teacher and helped my son not only learn his study requirements but also shared his deep knowledge on many advanced topics. Overall he built a strong relationship with my son which let his ability in physics greatly grow and improve. Thanks to him my son was able to get the St Paul’s 13+ scholarship and I don’t think he could have got it without Sam’s dedicated support.Posted on Hani ATrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. قال امير الشعراء احمد شوقي ، «قم للمعلم وفه التبجيلا.. كاد المعلم يكون رسولا» تجربة تعليمية اكثر من رائعة ، كان لك دور في غاية الأهمية في التحصيل العلمي لابني يوسف لمدة تزيد عن سنتين ، شكرًا لك على كل ما قدمته من علم ومعرفة، وعلى صبرك وحسن توجيهك ،كنت له سندا و دافعا ، ولك منا كل التقدير والاحترامPosted on Joseph de BonoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

The lessons were very efficient and helpful. They were both informative, as well as interactive.Posted on Sjr 2345Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sam Jordan is a fantastic tutor. As a year 13 student who has finished my A-levels I cannot recommend him enough. He really made me feel more confident in my ability, but also helped me not to worry when I get things wrong and went on to help improve my understanding in the subject as a whole. Sam always had greatly prepared slides and exam questions ready to go for any topic I wanted to go over, which I felt made sure I knew how to answer the questions after having looked at the content, as well as model answers when needed. Overall, the sessions were efficient and made me love physics even more, and you won't find anyone else like him!Posted on Lisa GuppyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sam has been an absolutely amazing tutor. Having only had him since the start of Year 13, I was worried I would have large gaps of understanding in areas we didn’t cover, but with amazing scheduling and lots of resources for outside improvement, we truly whizzed through the course!! Both my friends and teachers noticed improvement in understanding, exam technique and problem solving (to the point where I would be explaining topics to those who used to explain things to me!!) and come the final exam, I felt comfortable and confident (even with nasty AQA!!). He was also very kind, and we had lots of good laughs, and is someone I felt very comfortable chatting with and asking stupid questions to! Thank you, Sam!!Posted on Pradeep AsnaniTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. “I highly recommend Sam, who taught my son Physics at AS Level. His teaching style is clear, engaging, and well-structured, making complex concepts easy to grasp. My son gained a strong understanding and appreciation for the subject, thanks to his guidance. We’re very grateful for the support and commitment shown throughout the academic year
