Love the service

When I first reached out to Latimer Tuition, I was expecting slow responses as I had been getting for a while from other Tuition companies, however Robins replies were extremely fast and communication was great. Robin offered a price that made it affordable for my mum and we have been with Latimer Tuition for a few months now. I have been getting tutored by Samuel in maths and he has definitely helped me do some of the harder topics. I am now trying to achieve a 7 or 8 in the GCSE. Samuel is friendly and we occasionally have a small chat about other things so he definitely feels like a friend too. Thank you Robin and Samuel

My daughter is taking Maths A levels lessons from Samuel Omojola Damilare. He is passionate about teaching and his teaching style is very effective. My daughter has improved her maths grades significantly and enjoys the lessons. He pushes his student to achieve to the highest grades as well as makes the subject interesting and engaging. He makes an effort to finish a topic even if we run out of time by communicating through other means after the sessions. I would highly recommend him for Maths.

GCSEs maths tutor Samuel

I’ve been getting help for maths GCSEs with Samuel, the patience he has and the ability to do maths so easily gives me the confidence to actually apply myself, I’ve found maths so hard, for however long I can remember and now I’m sitting on a C in mock exams and I’m honestly so happy about that. I really appreciate Samuel so much and I feel like I’ve gotten a friend out of this, which is amazing also. Who knows what’s the future holds but I think I’ll be confident that I’ll come out with my C I need apply for uni! Thanks again :) you can do anything you put your mind too.

So glad we found Latimer Tuition and Rifna

Honestly my daughter has come on leaps and bounds with the support of her tutor Rifna. For someone who was not confident in maths and feel and see this grow. I feel this has made a big difference to my daughter she comes out of tutor lessons smiling and saying I can do this. I am so glad we came across Latimer Tuition. It honestly would recommend and the support of tutor Rifna has been fantastic, it is great to see my daughter have confidence in this subject.

We have been using Latimer for a couple…

We have been using Latimer for a couple of years now for both English and Maths. Both the tutors Ollie and Daniel have been absolutely fantastic with our son and we have seen a huge improvement in his work. We are now looking to include science tution too. I would 100% recommend Latimer to help you find a suitable tutor.

Started off okay. Overall unprofessional

Started off good. Prompt reply and a tutor that ‘matched’ what I was looking for was found. The price was negotiated and I was happy to start.
The first session didn’t start at the arranged time and wasn’t on teams which is what I expected from the information given. When the first session did start it went well and my son felt it was helpful. I remained in the room and did wonder whether the tutor had experience with SEN as the language and methods used by the tutor didn’t seem to be put in a way my son would understand. An initial chat with my son before tuition started could have solved this and was suggested by myself but was declined by the tutor.
My son had 4 more sessions afterwards which I was in and out of the room for. I observed a comment which I felt was inappropriate during a maths session in which trigonometry was being taught, “Can you really not see that is the longest side?”, this knocked his confidence and I felt was very condescending. The tutor was unresponsive on several occasions, even laughing at one point leading me to believe he was doing something else whilst I was paying for him to tutor my son. None of the sessions were planned out or summarised in any way which is essential to my son’s needs for routine.
The final straw was the tutors decision to teach biology. I had very clearly said that I did not want any science tuition until the start of May as I had arranged 2 hours per week locally. The response was that my son had allegedly asked for biology. I was shocked at the unprofessional behaviour of both Robin and the tutor. Robin claims that legally he cannot control how/whether tuition is carried out. He has no issue trying to charge you for it though!
Overall be very careful. I would imagine most of the tutors do what they are paid to do and tutor in the subjects they are asked to and (hopefully) have experience with any additional needs the person being tutored has. But I wouldn’t recommend using Latimer given the poor experience I had, especially if the person being tutored has additional needs.
I requested that my account be deleted which still hasn’t been done so I’d like to state here that I do not give permission for you Latimer, to continue to hold and/or use my data

Hello Joanna, I hope you are well.

Firstly, I’m glad we were able to quickly match you with a tutor and agree on pricing — it’s always our goal to start off on the right foot. That said, I apologise that the first session did not begin on time. I was not made aware of this, but I’m always happy to help arrange an alternative tutor if needed.

In terms of the lesson format, while we do provide Microsoft Teams for free, our tutors are self-employed (as required by law), and ultimately, the lesson platform, timing, content, and structure are decisions made between you and the tutor. I do encourage clients to clarify expectations directly with their tutor early on, and to reach out to me if things aren't working as expected.

Regarding your concerns about SEN support: to my knowledge, you did not request a tutor with SEN-specific qualifications — though we have many available. You selected your tutor directly from our website, and I do not intervene in those choices unless asked. I absolutely encourage parents or guardians to contact me first if they’d like help matching based on specific needs.

The suggestion for a pre-session introduction was a good one, and while I can’t compel a self-employed tutor to take that approach, I do think it’s something worth aligning on upfront. If a tutor declines reasonable requests like this, I’d always encourage you to let me know immediately so I can help resolve it or recommend someone else.

The comment made during the trigonometry session — “Can you really not see that is the longest side?” — understandably came across as discouraging. I'm very sorry if that was the case. As you didn’t raise this with me at the time, and sessions are not recorded (for compliance reasons), I cannot verify the context, but I take such concerns seriously.

If the tutor seemed distracted or unresponsive — again, I was not informed of this — but I urge any client to flag such issues to me. I want all students to have a productive and respectful learning experience, and I’m happy to intervene if standards aren’t being met.

With regard to session planning and summaries: I understand this is particularly important for students with additional needs. These are elements you can and should request from your tutor. If they aren’t provided and it affects learning, I absolutely want to know so I can help find a better-suited tutor.

You also mentioned that the tutor introduced biology against your wishes. I agree this should not have happened. If your son did ask for it, it would still have been the tutor’s responsibility to confirm with you first. Again, I was unaware this occurred, but I would have addressed it promptly if raised.

As for my legal role: I operate as an introducer under employment agency law. I vet and connect families with tutors, but I do not manage or instruct tutors on how they deliver lessons. This is both a legal limitation and a matter of professional respect for their independent status.

Regarding charges: Tutors issue their own invoices via our platform — not me personally. That said, I have systems in place to prevent or dispute any charges you believe are unfair. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if that ever arises; I will support you fully.

We work with many students who have SEN, and with open communication from the start, we generally see excellent outcomes. I regret that this wasn’t your experience and it’s a shame you didn’t loop me in the situation earlier to help resolve things.

Finally, your data deletion request was processed within 30 minutes of receipt. We do not send confirmation emails after deletion, as your data — including your email address — is erased entirely in accordance with GDPR.

Thank you again for your feedback. While I regret the outcome in this case, I remain committed to improving and supporting families — particularly those with additional needs — and welcome the opportunity to assist in the future should you reconsider.

Best,
Robin.

Smriti best maths tutor

Best maths tutor Smriti
My son worked with Smriti from Latimer Tuition to prepare for his GCSE exams, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the results. Smriti is an exceptional tutor who combines her deep knowledge of mathematics with a teaching style that is both engaging and accessible.

She was always well-prepared and tailored her lessons to focus on the areas where my son needed the most help. Her patience and encouragement boosted his confidence, and she ensured that he thoroughly understood each concept before moving on.

Thanks to Smrit’s dedication and expertise, my son was well-prepared for his GCSE exams and went into them feeling confident and ready. I highly recommend Smriti and Latimer Tuition to any parent looking for an outstanding maths tutor.

Fantastic A level maths support

My daughter has been working with Oliver to support her progress in A level maths and the difference in her in terms of confidence has been incredible. Oliver is excellent at putting her at ease and breaking topics down into manageable steps to support her. We have seen a big improvement in her grades and she loves her sessions. Thanks also to Robin who has made the whole process so easy. Totally recommend.

I have been very impressed with Neha's Maths Tuition

I have been very impressed with 'Latimer Tuition' and in particular the tutor we were assigned. My daughter was predicted a grade 3 in her mocks so we knew we had to get her support in this area. From my first contact with Robin @Latimer Tuition everything went smoothly and professionally. We were sent the names of suitable tutors and then had a free 15min consultation. My daughter felt comfortable and connected straight away with her tutor Neha. She began her weekly tuition which was very competitively priced @£25 per hour compared to others I had looked at. Neha was always organised with her lessons packing the most into the hour with past papers, follow up on areas of difficulty and setting homework for the following week. She kept my daughter engaged at all times with a variety of teaching styles. The lessons were online which suited perfectly as it cut out travelling time. Neha prepared a short informative report at the end of each lesson, stating what she had covered and the focus for the next lesson. I'm thrilled to say that my daughter achieved a grade 5 in her GCSE maths and without a doubt this was down to the extra weekly tuition she received. As a teacher myself (primary) I know how hard it is to engage with students and get the desired results. Therefore, I would and have highly recommended Latimer tuition and will certainly use them again in the future when my son reaches Yr11.

Wow, that's brilliant, thank you so much for the detailed review here Rhonda! :)

Neha is a fab tutor, so pleased you managed to work with her with us.

Seems like the connection your daughter and Neha had was very strong, I think I tend to see that amongst the younger (but still experienced) tutors overall, they seem to bond really well with their students!

I hope we continue to bring your daughter's grades and boost her even further throughout her studies in the future (if needed!).

Wishing you and your daughter all the best, and thanks again for a brilliant review! Robin :)
