This is what our clients say
I have used Edinburgh Tutors for a number of years and for 2 of my children. I have found the tutors excellent and they engage with the students really well. We have a fantastic tutor for Maths and Physics this year. I would recommend them.
Justine O'MalleyVery professional service provided by Graeme at Edinburgh Tutors for my sons Higher Physics. Each session was well structured and provided great support and learning.
Grant TaylorAyman has been brilliant with my son, Sam. He explained things clearly, built Sam's confidence, and made a real difference to his understanding of Higher Engineering Science. Sam went into his exam feeling well prepared, which says it all. The whole process was also really smooth, they matched us with Ayman quickly and communication was easy throughout.
Alan ParkerDouglas at Edinburgh Tutors has been an excellent tutor for my son studying Nat 5 Physics. His follow up email after the sessions let us know exactly what has been covered and what he will do at the next session and he has also been great at providing extra work for my son to complete in between. I would highly recommend him and Edinburgh Tutors.
