About Amanda
I am a Cambridge Natural Sciences graduate with over a decade of experience worked as a private tutor, primarily with children from many of the top independent schools in London, including St Paul's', North London Collegiate, Highgate, South Hampstead, City of London Boys and Girls, Haberdashers Aske‘s, King Alfred’s, Francis Holland, Marlborough, Eton and many more. In the past I worked with some of the best known tutoring agencies in London where I was a highly recommended tutor on the books, but now I work primarily for myself with most clients recommended through word of mouth as well as through platforms like this. My main focus is in preparing students for the 11+ and 13+ entrance exams and for the Maths and Science GCSE/IGCSE exams, particularly in Physics and Chemistry.
My aim is always to create a warm, non-judgemental teaching environment where there is an emphasis is on confidence building. Common feedback from students is how straightforward my explanations make Maths and Science appear, and that the lessons are a safe and non judgemental space to bring their difficulties. I have had several students go on to pursue Maths and Science at university even though they initially struggled with these subjects.
I am happy to offer a free initial consultation to discuss the needs of your child in detail.

I structure my lessons according to what my students are looking for help with. For example if they just want general homework help I will offer a less structured lesson than if I am preparing them for an exam. When preparing for an exam I usually follow the topics in the order that the school is teaching them, and I try to work with the schools methods as that usually produces less confusion.
Review

Perfect! Absolutely top class teaching
Amanda is worth every penny. Her kindness and way with children is matched by an amazing gift for inspiring focus and concentration in her students, packing an incredible amount of hard but fun work in to each lesson. We’ve tried other tutors before and she is by far the best. We’ve seen unbelievable improvement with our child over the year we’ve been working with her. We had to wait a while to get to the top of her waiting list as she’s so popular but I’m so glad we didn’t go with someone else!

Amanda has been teaching GCSE Maths and Physics to my daughter in Year 9 and I have been extremely impressed by the standard of her teaching and her way of teaching. She is very knowledgeable in the subjects she teaches and can pitch the lessons to the right level for the student. She is very approachable, extremely kind and patient and instils confidence in the student. My daughter’s Maths and Physics grades have improved vastly since she started being tutored by Amanda 3 months ago. Amanda has helped her to really understand the concepts, gain confidence in tackling various aspects of the subjects and approach these subjects with a ‘can do’ attitude. My daughter looks forward to her lessons with Amanda. I thoroughly recommend her. She is an excellent Tutor.
Amanda taught my daughter for gcse maths and science - we were delighted with her achievement of a high 8 and coveted 9s, which allowed her to gain entry to her sixthform of choice at South Hampstead school for girls. Amanda is a gifted teacher and a lovely responsible person. She was there for us throughout, advising and assisting above and beyond the scheduled sessions. She's a gem!
It is a pleasure to recommend Amanda who tutored our daughter in preparation for 11+ Exams which she sat January 2018. Amanda was always prepared to pack a lot of work into each session, to challenge, encourage, inspire and with her gentle nature still be firm and demand the best from our daughter, who was always sorry when the session was over.
Amanda was lovely to have in our home, easy to trust that our daughter was getting the help she needed and a blessing for our family’s peace of mind. We highly recommend her.We have known Amanda for six years, and she has been a wonderful tutor for our son who was studying for GSCEs.
Throughout the period, she has shown exemplary time keeping.
We found her to be very patient, calm and empathetic.Amanda tutored my son for his 11+ entrance exams. Not only was she lovely, calm and patient with him but his maths improved dramatically under her guidance. She was unphased by the added complication of his learning difficulties and remained positive and reassuring throughout. Thank you so much Amanda!
Not only did Amanda mange to make my son understand the more difficult sides of the Maths and Sciences, he also began to enjoy the subjects! We couldn't thank her enough
Amanda tutored our two daughters in science and maths last year, the elder through her GCSEs,
the younger in her 11+ exams.
I am almost at a loss to convey just how good a tutor Amanda is. My girls are not naturally inclined
towards the sciences or maths, and yet they passed their exams with flying colours. Further, and
more importantly, they actually learned things that have stayed with them (rather than just
cramming for the exams) and indeed the younger is now doing really well in—and enjoying—maths
at secondary school.
Amanda is personable, low-key, patient and very understanding of the difficulties that youngsters
get themselves in over apparently insoluble problems. There were many occasions when my
daughters would emerge from a session saying “it’s great; I really understand that point now”. Yet
she is also able, very gently, to crack the whip when needs be and the girls became very
conscientious about doing “her” homework as well as the school’s. She is punctual and never missed a session.
As to her academics, they are plainly so far beyond mine in the sciences (I studied languages at
Oxford) that I scarcely feel equipped to comment. Even on my limited questioning of her on certain
points, it was abundantly clear that she knew her stuff.
My wife and I (and our daughters) unhesitatingly recommend Amanda, and indeed the younger
(now in Year 7) is already asking if we can “reserve” her for when she does her GCSEs. I feel that
says it all.View more recommendations
