Why parents choose Michael
Quietly different
An examiner's perspective
I mark the actual exams. I know exactly what gets credit, what does not, and where students lose the most marks unnecessarily.
Teacher background, not just tutor
18 years in real classrooms, PGCE qualified, mentor to student teachers and ECTs. Tutoring is a continuation of that work, not an add-on.
Tailored to the exam board
AQA, Edexcel, OCR, Eduqas, CIE, IB. The mark schemes are different and so is the teaching. Workshops run separately by specification.
Diagnostic-led approach
The first session diagnoses what each student actually needs, not a generic syllabus walkthrough. The plan follows from that.
