All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to real lessons experienced by the students of Dr James.
Perfect! My daughter has had a few sessions with Dr James now and the boost to her confidence and knowledge is evident already with her predicted grade after a mock exam going from a C to B, no doubt because of the techniques he has taught her. He is an excellent tutor and has a way of teaching that has helped my daughter so much even in such a short space of time. Highly recommended.
Perfect! James’ input was fantastic, my son gained a rapid and thorough knowledge of the subject which made a huge difference to his results and he got into his first choice uni! James is an excellent tutor and his help has been worth its weight in gold.
Perfect! First session with James and I'm already making new connections and understanding my work better, very happy with him as a tutor.
Perfect! Very supportive and cares about his tutees progress
My daughter Annah achieved an A today 18/08/22 in her A Level Psychology. James has made a tremendous impact on my daughter's understanding of the topic. This is a subject she knew nothing about but wanted to take at A Level. Initially struggled with understanding it but the progress she has made to achieve an "A" grade is nothing short of remarkable. All this with James's tutorial support. Well done James and the very best for the future. We are so glad we met you. You should be proud!!!

My daughter is fortunate to have the brilliant tutorship of James. What stands out with James’s sessions is the personalised approach tailored to the needs of your child.
What my daughter finds refreshing is that she does not need to sit through another load of powerpoints during her sessions but rather brings to the table areas she requires assistance with and James is able to explain concepts, effectively which demonstrates his expertise and knowledge in the subject of Psychology.

James is fantastic. He is very patient, thorough and achieves so much in a one hour session.
He reviews the topic and subject matter, fills any knowledge gaps, encourages reading around the subject and tests to make sure the information is understood. He did so much for my daughter's confidence in this subject - if I could give him 10 stars I would! In 6 weeks he moved her grade from a D to B and was striving for an A before Covid set in. A brilliant tutor.

James has tutored me throughout my second year of my A-Levels. Before that, I got a D in my mock exam at the end of my first year. Then James tutored me and I got a B in my final exam! He was always fun to work with, never boring, left notes for me and my mum after every lesson, which helped me to focus on the subjects I needed more work with. I'm proud and happy with my result and much of it is thanks to James too.

James has been helping me get a more thorough understanding of psychology and is consistently making sure I understand everything we cover. He also helps by providing some very useful anagrams which is extremely helpful for psychology which can feel very content heavy.
James has been tutoring my son, C, in A-Level psychology for the past 5 months and since then there has been a real improvement in C`s understanding of the subject, his general confidence in his knowledge, and the quality of his written work. James is patient and encouraging and keeps C engaged and motivated to improve, making the sessions enjoyable and interesting.
James is a brilliant tutor! My son was predicted a C and after tutoring from James he achieved an A in Psychology A-Level (2023).
The improvement in understanding of subject matter and exam technique for my son was amazing. James is extremely professional, reliable and a really nice guy. Thanks James!James is an exceptional tutor. He taught my daughter Psychology A-Level and was consistently enthusiastic, ordered, clear, kind and patient and explained topics in a way she could easily understand and retain. He was always punctual, polite and respectful and as a result of his excellent teaching my daughter improved hugely, attained her required grade and is off to university in September. I cannot recommend James highly enough - we were very lucky to have found him.
James is a fantastic tutor. He is helping my daughter prepare for A-Level psychology and he is very clear, patient and very proactive in working on the specific topics she struggles with. My daughter actually looks forward to his sessions. I would highly recommend James, we feel very lucky to have found him.
Has been incredible! I feel so confident in Psychology now and he is constantly helping me with my exam techniques, ensuring that I am always aiming for the top marks! The best tutor I’ve had by far!! Highly recommend him!!!!
James tutored my daughter in A-level Psychology. He did an excellent job, both in content and teaching approach
James has helped me to develop my skills and has meant I am on track to getting an A*. I couldn't recommend him more as his content knowledge and exam board knowledge is superb.
Update: Having received my results, I was one of only 2 people in my entire school to gain an A* in psychology A level. I am delighted with the result and am certain that this would not have been possible without James' help and support. I cannot recommend him moreMy son Ben has made excellent progress in his studies whilst working with James. Ben really enjoys James' relaxed and informal tutoring style. Ben is now making rapid progress with some of the more difficult concepts in the Psychology AS curriculum.
Mrs Brown, North London, 2016.I have known James for almost six years, since he first came to work as a Visiting Tutor in the English and Comparative Department, at Goldsmiths, University of London. His contribution to the activities of the Department was excellent. His dedication and his enthusiasm during his time at Goldsmiths were remarkable. Colleagues and students alike particularly appreciated his professionalism and his personal qualities.
In every respect, James’s contribution to the teaching of the First-Year introductory course to Literature and Theory, which I convene, was excellent. Students appreciated his organisational competence, his intelligent use of a variety of resources to stimulate interest and impart knowledge, his own high level of motivation, his ability to motivate others and above all his approachability. All reports regarding his classes attested the outstanding nature of his pedagogical skills.
I have no hesitation in recommending James for a teaching position.View more recommendations
