TESTIMONIALS

A Level    KS3 and GCSE    KS2    KS1    

Zohreh is a kind, caring and motivated tutor who helped me to enjoy maths again after I had some time out of school due to some serious health issues. I had weekly lessons with her in the run up to my GCSEs and without a doubt she helped me to achieve a much higher grade.

Zohreh set me weekly homework and encouraged me to tackle lots of past papers in the run up to the exams which she would then work through with me to explain and practice any topics I struggled with, for example simultaneous equations and algebraic fractions. She would regularly check in with me outside of the lessons to encourage me to stay focused.

I passed my GCSE maths with a good grade and as a result of the confidence Zohreh has given me, I am going now to study Pure Maths at A level along with Physics and Graphics.

Thank you Zohreh, you really made the difference.

Zohreh is an outstanding tutor whose depth of knowledge, patience, and passion for teaching are truly inspiring. She has a wonderful way of bringing out the best in her students, not only building their confidence but also helping them achieve excellent results. Her encouragement, kindness, and professionalism make her a rare and invaluable teacher.

We turned to Zohreh because we felt that although the school was supportive, our daughter needed a more personalised approach to help her progress in maths. Zohreh’s deep understanding of the curriculum, together with her ability to quickly identify our daughter’s strengths and weaknesses and bring all areas up to standard, has been invaluable.

She also understood the pressures students face and the strain parents can feel, managing expectations with skill and reassurance. Her patience, clarity, and encouragement transformed not only our daughter’s understanding of maths but also her confidence and self-belief. She made the subject clear, approachable, and achievable. We are deeply grateful for the positive impact Zohreh has had — she is an exceptional tutor and mentor.

My daughter required a grade 7 in GCSE Maths to study the A levels she wanted at her preferred sixth form provider. In her January mocks, she attained a grade 6 so I contacted Zohreh mid-February. Three months later, my daughter comfortably attained a Grade 7 in GCSE Maths; in fact, she was just a few marks shy of a grade 8. Both my daughter and I firmly believe that without Zohreh, this rapid improvement would not have been possible.

Zohreh invested in my daughter and always went the extra mile; she generally cared about how my daughter achieved. Zohreh is friendly and charming which meant my daughter felt comfortable and inspired which boosted her confidence in Maths.

Zohreh personalised the learning by focussing on gaps that required development whilst past paper practice and advice made sure my daughter was exam ready. Homework was set which supported and extended what was taught in lessons. Zohreh also gave detailed feedback to me as a parent; her communication was excellent.

I wholeheartedly recommend Zohreh as a Maths tutor. I will be sending my other child to Zohreh when she is GCSE age. Thank you Zohreh!

Our daughter didn't get the grades she wanted in her mock maths papers.

There were numerous topics she felt the school were not explaining, Zohreh took her through all of these and more using a combination of exercises at home and in person, always taking the time to go through any work that my daughter had got wrong.

She is very friendly, supportive and always went well beyond our expectations. The key for me is that my daughter attributes her grade 8 totally to Zohreh and the work they did together.

I couldn't recommend her highly enough and will be sending my next daughter to her once she reaches GCSEs too.

In just a few sessions, my daughter Ruby's confidence in preparation for an entrance exam was helped so much and without a doubt, Zohreh contributed to her successfully obtaining a bursary place for her school. We are grateful for her patience, knowledge and kindness in helping Ruby.

Zohreh was my maths tutor for 3 years, and over this course of time she helped me develop my confidence and skill in maths immensely. She was always patient and explained concepts clearly to ensure I understood fully. Zohreh is friendly and extremely helpful and she always came to the lessons fully prepared and provided resources and maths material every week to further encourage my learning and understanding.

Zohreh always believed in me as a student and her faith in me encouraged me to succeed in doing well in my maths GCSE. I scored an 8 in my final gcse maths exam and am very grateful for all her time and effort but most importantly her belief in me.

Before my lessons with Zohreh began, I was scoring low marks in maths and did not have much confidence. However, as time with Zohreh progressed, my confidence and grades rose which I am very thankful for.

Zohreh is a great mentor, tutor and she continues to be a good friend.

Without the support of my tutor, Zohreh, I could not be able to pass my GCSE maths. I only passed my December mock paper in maths with the grade 2/3. With Zohreh's support I achieved the grade 5 at foundation level in June examination. Zohreh is a kind, dedicated and hardworking tutor. I would recommend her 100%.

I started working with Zohreh 5 months before my Maths GCSE. I had achieved a D in my mock exam and I needed help to boost my mark up to be able to continue with what I wanted to do at A level at a good sixth form. Zohreh worked with me very well over the 5 months and was a calm and collected teacher who never minded going through exercises slowly if I needed, she also made me familiar with what the examiner wanted. I achieved a grade C in my maths GCSE and due to Zohreh's help I am now continuing on with what I want to do in my desired sixth form, Thank you!

Thank you so much for your help with tutoring my daughter at GCSE maths this year. You gave her confidence when she was doubting herself, and helped her to understand the topics that she struggled with. She worked hard for her grade, and, with your guidance and suggestions fully deserved the solid "A" grade that she achieved. Thank you.

This is a statement about my experience of my son's tuition with Zohreh.

My son was keen to progress maths and science in his continuing education but as exams were coming closer it was felt he needed additional support to push what was a lucky C into a higher more consistent grade. Jarod had 13 sessions of tuition with Zohreh in little over two months. As a result of the tuition Jarod developed a greater confidence in his ability and was able to focus on the areas that he found most challenging rather than his previous technique of sticking to what he knew.

He was also helped by one to one tuition where things were explained to him in terms he could understand the importance of key terms that he had to know for the exams.

The undertaking of past papers at home to review in the sessions also prepared him better for the exam. It is important to stress that Jarod was given a lot of this information by school, at home and through family members but Zohreh's approach made him understand why this was necessary and he was able to see the results at first hand which led him push himself to achieve "B".

I thank Zohreh for her valuable support for my son in the most crucial period to GCSE exam.

I hired Zohreh as a maths tutor for my son, James, as I wanted him to improve his GCSE maths. He had achieved "U" in his year 10 maths test. Tuition was carried out from August 2015- June 2016 and as a result James achieved a grade "B" in his GCSE maths. James liked his tuition with Zohreh for the fact that tuition on various topics was clear and she would praise James for his good work and progress. We are very pleased with the result and grateful to Zohreh for her hard work.

My Daughter Amie always had low confidence in maths but really benefited from having Zohreh teach her. Zohreh was always very calm and explained things really well and praised Amie for her efforts. She was always interested in what my daughter enjoyed in school and out of school which made Amie feel relaxed with her. Zohreh took time to email work to her to help with exam preparation, Amie achieved her predicted grade and was overjoyed. I would highly recommend Zohreh to other students.

Zohreh was very welcoming and flexible when it came to tutoring me. From the start she encouraged me and instilled a lot of belief and support in me. She made learning maths easy to understand. I had two tries at my maths exam and she helped me tremendously so much so that I gained a C in the second time around! Zohreh is very good at what she does and knows how to engage her students which I found really helpful! I am so grateful I got in contact with Zohreh and would have no else help me as she is a superstar! Thank you Zohreh! Ella aged 24 (teacher training student)

Thank you so much for the tuition you gave Matthew for the rigorous IGCSE exam where he achieved an A. Matt was not quite getting the attention he needed at school to achieve this level and you were instrumental in ensuring all of the syllabus was covered and that he was conversant with it to a high degree. You were patient and understanding and yet able to progress him to the pass mark that will hold him in good stead throughout his life.

We are grateful to you tutoring our son, Efe. You helped Efe who was reluctant to bring the best out of himself to achieve his goals in GCSE. His GCSE maths result was "A" and we believe he could not have done it without the help/tutoring of Mrs Zohreh. We have decided to continue with Mrs Zohreh tutoring Efe's Aslevel Maths. I will recommend Mrs Zohreh to anyone who is interested in using her to tutor their children.

Our daughter was low in confidence in maths and in her mock she achieved a D grade. Zohreh prepared our daughter during year 11 and her teaching methods were effective in giving our daughter much needed confidence and learning how to enjoy maths and to do things simply so much so she achieved an "A" In her GSCE this year. I would recommend Zohreh without hesitation.

I really enjoyed being taught by Zohreh. She was patient and I really benefitted from her calm and professional style of teaching. Zohreh covered the whole syllabus and would always go over any areas I had difficulty with. She increased my confidence and knowledge in the subject and in the end my final result was two grades higher than predicted, as I had been predicted a "D" but achieved a "B". I was delighted. Kind regard Kiera

Ashley has always had poor prediction by her maths teachers since primary school. When Ashley got into secondary school the outlook was just as dismal. This did not help Ashley's confidence at all and so learning maths became a struggle. Six months before her GCSE's I contacted Zohreh to help tutor Ashley in Maths. The aim was to get her to pass the subject but also if possible to boost her confidence so she could do even better.

Three months after Zohreh's tutoring Ashley mock GCSE exam result was a C; a big improvement from the E she got in the exam before that. Her GCSE result was a B and Ashley is so confident with Maths now, she is taking it at A Level. Thank you to Zohreh for her persistence and incredible teaching skills, which obviously played a big part in Ashley's success.
