Our Philosophy
I began as an underachieving student, achieving grades 5s and 6s in my GCSE mocks with limited academic support. With the right guidance and learning strategies, I transformed my results—achieving grades 9–7 at GCSE, A*A*A at A-level, and later completing a Master’s degree in Civil Engineering at Imperial College London.
Over the past 8+ years, I’ve helped students make the same transformation, particularly those stuck at grades 5/6. By understanding how each student learns and applying the right techniques, I’ve consistently guided pupils to achieve grades 8 and 9 with confidence.
My philosophy is simple: education should be of the highest standard and tailored to the individual. That’s why our tutors don’t just teach GCSE and A-Level content—they mentor students, build confidence, develop effective study habits, and provide guidance on future pathways, whether that’s university or career direction.
Every tutor is personally selected to meet this standard, combining strong academic or professional backgrounds with clarity, adaptability, and absolute confidence in their teaching.

“IQ Tutors really helped me improve my maths and science GCSE grades within 3 months, going from a grade 4 to a grade 8 which I initially had no hope of achieving. They were very useful in teaching how to manage my time and provided useful homework.”
