Ayman has been brilliant with my son

Ayman 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.

Really pleased with the support overall and would definitely recommend Ayman to anyone looking for a reliable and effective tutor.

Thank you so much — we really appreciate you taking the time to leave this. We're delighted both children are thriving and that we've been able to find the right tutors for them.

I had been trying to find an Eng Sci tutor to support my son as he worked towards his higher exam - who knew Eng Sci tutors are like hen's teeth! I'd looked at other sites but took umbridge at the cost to register to contact a tutor, then I found Edinburgh Tutors and Ayman. He has been a fantastic support for my son, and a great communicator working through the areas my son needs most help. This has built his knowledge and, importantly, his confidence. Would 100% recommend Ayman.

Thank you for this — Engineering Science tutors are indeed hard to find, and tracking down the right one for your son is exactly the kind of challenge we relish. Matching the right tutor to the right student is what we do, and we're delighted Ayman has made such a difference — both to your son's knowledge and his confidence. We'll make sure he sees this. 100% recommend accepted!

Great service with excellent communication.
My daughter receives Advanced Higher Physics tuition from Cara, and she has been fantastic. Cara explains specific topics very clearly and often from a different perspective, which makes the subject much easier to understand. She is an excellent tutor. They have built a very good rapport, which has really helped my daughter’s confidence and understanding. I would highly recommend this service and Cara as a tutor.

Hi Zaineb1,
Thank you for your feedback. We were genuinely surprised by your comments and want to make sure any concerns are properly resolved.
After checking our records, we haven’t found a client, parent, or sponsor under this name, nor any payment issues matching what you describe. This suggests you may be a pupil rather than the bill payer, and we want to ensure the right person is contacted so your tuition needs are fully supported.
Regarding the payment app, we can confirm we don’t use any such app. We recently introduced a secure, government-compliant card-payment option, though BACS is still available for those who prefer it.
Your learning is the priority, and we’re concerned you are unhappy. Please could the bill payer contact us directly by phone, message, or email so we can look into this quickly and put things right?
Best wishes,
Eamonn

An Inspiring and Supportive English Teacher

My daughter has had an excellent experience with her English teacher, Gillian. She clearly explains the exam criteria and provides outstanding exam tips that have really helped build confidence. My daughter, enjoys her lessons immensely and loves the thorough and engaging discussions about literary analysis. Gillian’s classes are always well-structured, insightful, and enjoyable. We’re very happy with the quality of her teaching and the progress she has made. Highly recommended!
