All my students do better, because of the approach I take, concrete learning class by class. Following this approach has two main reasons, one is that the student gains confidence when the student can see that she/he can master something which could not understand it before. Also, when the students see that they can master a subject in a session they also gain confidence that they can do the same in other subjects. It is also important for the parents, in order to see the concrete benefit of the tuition and the money they spend in tuition.
I have tutored successfully over the last five years and before that, with proven results and student satisfaction, including in tutoring students that were failing being able to achieve top grades in the final exams. I have also taught at University. With two Master degrees and many years in the finance business world, I have the knowledge and expertise to teach Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry. I am also highly responsible, patient and able to adapt to different students, providing them with the motivation and confidence they require to learn. Finally, and more importantly, I tutor having concrete objectives of progress to be made by the student, session by session, as this builds confidence in the student and helps motivate them further to study.
I am sharing below recent comments from a student/parents I have received:
“Ricardo has been a godsend. He has found the right route for our son’s learning style, and was able to infuse new energy into his learning, creating a space for our son to really enjoy the subject again! Our son did really well in his mock exams, has gained a huge amount of self-esteem and now feels pride about his ability and achievements in Maths! With Ricardo we are soaring! He is a gifted and dedicated teacher.”
“We are absolutely thrilled at Clare’s amazing progressed since you started teaching her. We tried others for months and they did not work. She remained in the lowest set in her class and dreaded attending school. We are so relieved at the amazing progress that Clare has made since you started teaching her. She is now looking forward to attending school. We are also pleased to share her teacher’s comment in the school report: Julie’s progress in maths this year has been fantastic! Thank you so very much.”
“Ricardo is a dedicated tutor and it is clear that he has a passion for teaching which is refreshing to see. Ricardo’s teaching methods are effectively and he knows how to engage with his students to get the best out of them. His caring and friendly approach enabled him to build a good rapport with my child, she feels comfortable to ask him questions and he spends time going over the work. I would without hesitation recommend Ricardo as a tutor, both my child and I are very pleased with him. Kind Regards,
“Ricardo’s approach is different from other tutors we have tried. He is a dynamic person, constantly finding different ways to approach the kids to see in which way they can learn better, lots of suggestions and really passionate. If you need a Maths tutor give him a try.”
“Her most recent paper two result was 75/80- giving her a percentage of over 93 percent and not only the highest in her class but in her whole year. My wife and I are over the moon and now so happy that you will bring this enthusiasm for learning to Physics and Chemistry next week. You are indeed London’s Super Tutor! Thank you
“Ricardo tutored our daughter Delora in Maths, Physics and Chemistry for her exams. Ricardo is an outstanding tutor who goes above and beyond to help my daughter excel in her learning. He’s very compassionate about teaching and you can tell he cares about the students understanding of topics. He keeps his lesson effective, engaging and fun resulting in my daughter to feel more confident and interested towards these subjects. He is very intelligent, thoughtful and attentive to her needs. My daughter stated he understands that different people learn best through different methods of teaching and he adapts to her most effective method of learning. We highly recommend him to everyone.”
“Ricardo is truly a brilliant tutor, my child has made significant improvement in her studies under the guidance of Ricardo and I am thoroughly pleased with her progress.”
“Dear Ricardo we would like to tell you the very good news. We wanted to share that Susan received an A in Maths and physics and a B in chemistry we are very pleased and would like to thank you for all your hard work and patients you put in teaching this not easy child!!!!!! Many thanks again. Jasmin”
Dear Ricardo, You have kindly given our daughter Marie Maths tuition since the Autumn of last year in preparation for her exams. We have been so grateful to you for bringing her to love Maths and it is solely to your method of engaging and encouraging your students.
“I have two children aged 12 and 10 with extremely different attitudes towards Maths . For the older one Maths does not come easy but you could describe him as well-rounded in terms of ability in other subjects and quite a diligent learner. His brother is the opposite ie naturally good at Maths but rather lazy in learning. Ricardo wasn’t the first maths tutor that I tried for my kids but he is the right one. My older one has improved and his Maths scores are higher than before so he has gained self-esteem. Last week he said to his brother “If I apply myself in Maths I can be better than you ” whereas before he just called him “brainiac” and this change of attitude I put down to Ricardo. Also the little one has benefitted from him in that he is much more calm during the tutoring sessions and he is finally prepared to ask for help when he needs it.”
“Thank you for tutoring John, he found your tutoring very helpful and useful. It has helped him a lot, particularly as you did in dealing with the not so easy problems and thinking how to apply the theory to resolving the problems. He has told me that you are able to explain in simpler way some of the areas that are more challenging. We also appreciate your kind and gentle approach with him and clearly would recommend you to other parents for tutoring their children. Many thanks”
