M Bower Tutoring

Matt successfully guided our son through his 11 plus. he found the lessons challenging, rewarding and gained in confidence throughout his tuition. he explained to parents after every session what they'd been working on and was very informative. i'd highly recommend matt and we will be going back to him if our daughter decides to take the 11plus.

Matt came highly recommended to us when my daughter decided she wanted to do her 11+. from the onset, matt was professional, fair and dedicated. he was very supportive of his students and also helpful to the parents, giving us valuable information about the application process for the exam. matt helped my daughter build on her confidence, enabling her to pass her exams and secure a place at her chosen school. i wouldn't hesitate to recommend matt to anyone needing a tutor. thank you matt - she couldn't have done it without you! kelly woolcock

Matt came highly recommended - we found him firm but very fair with the students. regular homework and clear guidance were exactly what our daughter needed. matt gave our daughter huge confidence and we really appreciated the parent briefings at the end of each session that ensured that what had been covered was shared and what had to be done before the next session was clear. our daughter found out today that she has her place in her chosen grammar school, and we will be using matt again in 3 years time for our son.

When looking to start tutoring for our son, we wanted someone with a clear process. matt was professional and personable from the offset, standing out as passionate in his support of children to learn, not just learn to pass the 11+. he has helped our son to understand a greater depth of english and mathematics principles and to more easily apply these. regardless of the 11+ outcome, this has stood him in excellent stead for his final year of school and beyond. specific to the 11+, matt has great insight and support and has developed a great programme. our son was able to manage the weekly commitment without feeling overwhelmed and successfully achieved the a needed. matt works effectively with the candidates and their families, giving regular feedback and support. we would happily recommend him.

Matt came highly recommended by a number of friends. we weren't quite sure if the 11 plus was right for our daughter so we regularly reviewed this with matt's support and guidance throughout the year. as the year went on, we were more confident that our daughter would proceed and give the 11 plus a go. with this aside, we knew the tutoring was proving beneficial as her confidence, particularly in maths grew stronger. a daughter who was not keen on maths before now loves it! she did well enough in her 11 plus to go to a grammar school which has opened up our options.
