Gareth is an extremely committed and conscientious tutor who has helped my son regain confidence in his own ability. He is very generous with his time in discussing and understanding each individual situation and guiding parents/carers if needed. Gareth provides focus and structure to learning, without it seeming overbearing. He is realistic with goals but at the same time striving to achieve the best possible outcome. I have been especially impressed with his approach to English with my son, who is not keen at all. Gradually building up confidence and providing context – which is so important particularly in subjects that they find more difficult. – Mrs P
