"[We] previously used AHeadStart 1-2 years ago, finding Melanie extremely professional and approachable. The tutor involved was just wonderful and after only one session was able to recognise a key component which our daughter wasn't understanding in physics. She went from getting "not achieved" to "excellent" within a very short time."

"Melanie was wonderful in her availability to cater for Danielle at short notice. Danielle was very certain that she was going to do poorly in her Physics exam prior to her lessons with Melanie.

Pieta stated that she was trying to get a grip on torque (for physics) all term and five minutes with Jackson she got it. She thought he was really patient, calm, clear conscience and explained concepts and his ideas really well. Toby said he was really cool and smart, happy to continue to work with him.”

“Lucie was struggling with minimal help at school, and would have got achieved at best with chem, but after tutoring got merit.
Lucie had a huge amount of extracurricular responsibility, and missed a lot of class time. Caitlin was very clear on re capping and making sure Lucie was absolutely certain in her answers."

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank you SO much for all your help and support over the years – you have made an amazing difference to Alex and I know she would have struggled without you. I think it would be lovely to keep in touch – I know Alex will really like that.

Thank you again – for your fabulous help."

"Robyn and I have no doubt that Bevan's help was essential.  I don't think Matthew ever reached "confident" but he did get back on top of the work and felt he did ok in the exams. Cambridge Maths at that level is tough obviously, Matt is smart and his class is full of smart boys, he tells us a significant number have fallen by the wayside blown away by the complexity and workload. We are grateful to Bevan for his patience, good humor and excellent tutoring."
