Diane tutored my son for both Maths and Physics at A-Level. He was good at maths (about a B, predicted C), but weak at Physics (low C, predicted a D), this was with the aid of the previous tutors. Working with Diane, propelled my son from the above to achieve a solid A (just below A*) in maths and a solid B in physics. We tried a number of tutors and learnt at significant expense that not all tutors are created equal. Diane was definitely worth the money, delivering what it says on the tin!

From Katie
My son is really enjoying his A level maths sessions with Diane. She explains everything really clearly and tries different approaches until he understands. She has an encouraging manner, which is boosting his confidence. I would recommend Diane.
From Celia
She is a good tutor. We came from Hong Kong several months, my son's English is not good. Diane speaks slowly and uses simple words to explain with him. He loves her very much.
From Tertia
Diane has been excellent with my daughter; boosting her confidence and skills. She is very patient and thorough and the coaching to date has been really helpful and I'm sure will continue to be.
From Mohamed
Diane is an excellent teacher and she is quite professional. She is helping my son Ibrahim in A level physics and he is quite happy and understands topics from her much better than from school. I strongly recommend her.
From Samiyah
Very helpful and when you have a teacher passionate about what they teach you know you are at the right hands.
Thank you. I’m glad that Samiyah enjoys my approach.
From Rebecca
My son's confidence and performance has greatly benefitted from Diane's tutoring in maths. He has found her teaching style really clear, ensuring he understands methodology. She has also given excellent guidance on what was needed to get him on track. Highly recommended!
Thank you, Rebecca. As you say, Caleb’s confidence is key. Filling in the gaps he has from GCSE is allowing him to engage with his A level studies fully now.
From Jennifer
We contacted Diane to see if she could help our son, who has just started his degree at university. The maths element of his course was proving to be tricky for him as he had not studied the subject at 'A' level; he was becoming very anxious about being able to keep up.
Diane has been absolutely AMAZING. She has been tutoring our son on a weekly basis and he actually 'phoned home today (!) to say that he had not only enjoyed his lesson, but that he now understands the topic. Our son describes Diane as kind, patient and 'really good at explaining hard stuff'.
Diane's communication is exemplary. She replies to emails promptly and is always incredibly helpful. We really appreciated the first free lesson, which enabled her and our son to see if they were a good match.
We would highly recommend Diane and think she deserves more than five stars!
Thank you for your positive comments It helps tremendously that Charles is a very enthusiastic and engaged learner.

From Nicki
My son really struggled with the jump to Alevel and I suspect without Diane's patient, thorough tuition he would probably not have achieved his Alevel at all. However, he is now studying economics at university. Highly recommended
Thank you Nicki Pete worked very hard
From Darren
Diane tutored my daughter for her Physics GCSE and helped her achieve a level 8. This was higher than the predicted grade set by her school. Diane’s teaching style is excellent and really put my daughter at ease. My daughter found the way Diane taught much easier to understand so things she didn’t quite understand at school became clear. Diane was also more than happy to teach other subjects and so helped my daughter with her Maths as well. We would definitely recommend Diane for Physics and Maths tutoring.
Thank you Darren
From Madeleine
Diane tutored our daughter for a year and enabled her to improve her Maths grade from a 'D' to a 'B', thereby helping her to be accepted on her preferred university course. Diane was very enthusiastic and sympathetic, at all times going the extra mile to ensure that our daughter understood the concepts involved. We would unhesitatingly recommend her.
From Donna
Diane has been an excellent tutor enabling my son to gain an A in his maths AS. Very flexible and supportive. Many thanks for all your help so far.
Thank you for posting such a positive comment, Donna. Barney worked really hard for his result so well deserved

From Cath
Diane is helping my daughter with A Level maths. Diane is an extremely helpful and knowledgeable Maths tutor. She has no problems explaining things in terms that my daughter can understand and in the few weeks that we have been seeing Diane my daughter is making very good progress. Diane often puts in additional work outside of the lessons, with helpful crib sheets and setting practice tests which she then emails.
Thank you, Cath
From Diane
Diane has really helped my daughter to overcome the areas that she was struggling with in Maths as well as improving her confidence and revision skills. Diane is an excellent tutor who I highly recommend.
From Benedict
We have engaged Diane and she has given the first lesson to Rory Whybrow
From Richard
Firstly, I found the service (including the helpful website) provided by First Tutors extremely useful and beneficial - and provided necessary and clear information that I and my daughter needed to make the correct decision on the tutor to be used going forward. However, Diane has surpassed our expectations - and we have been delighted with the service that she has provided. I would highly recommend both First Tutors and also Diane ! Excellent - thank you
From Jan
