David
KS2 - GCSE Tutor Maths and Science - 16 Years Experience
About
I'm a former lecturer, company director and a chartered engineer who started tutoring in 2010. I benefitted from tutoring by an industry professional as a young student.
I've had numerous students over the years who have achieved great success. One student went from a Grade U to a GCSE Grade 5 in 5 months.
I always try different approaches to suit the student, to ensure maximum learning potential. My students (some with learning difficulties) warm to my friendly and understanding approach.

No Tutorperch reviews yet. After a lesson, students can leave a verified review here — they're the canonical signal we use for this tutor's Tutorperch rating and ranking.
Reviews from First Tutors
Imported from David's First Tutors profile before the site went dark. Shown separately from Tutorperch reviews — they don't affect this tutor's Tutorperch rating or ranking.
How we verify these
Each imported review went through admin review. The tutor proved ownership of the First Tutors profile via one of two paths:
- Photo match. The First Tutors avatar matched the tutor's identity-verified Tutorperch photo, confirmed by admin.
- Cryptographic email check. The tutor uploaded an original First Tutors email (.eml). We verified the DKIM signature against First Tutors' signing keys and cross-checked the embedded tutor ID against the claimed profile.
The review text is the original reviewer's own words, quoted as-is. We verified the tutor's ownership of the profile, not the truth of what each individual reviewer wrote.

Unfortunately due to Timing flexibility we couldn't Proceed with any lessons with David. He was great to quickly get back to us, clear with his requirements.
David replied
It's a shame that after agreeing a time, I was unable to accommodate your changes. I wish you and your children all the very best for the future.

David provided weekly tutoring sessions for my son who also has a diagnosis of Aspergers Syndrome. David was very punctual with his sessions. He was very patient with my son and improved his knowledge and confidence. I would definitely recommend David for GCSE maths tuition

David has been my 10 year old son's math tutor for 5 months. My son had no confidence and was really struggling in his maths lessons at school. David has been excellent. He has patience and has a great way of explaining maths in order for my son to understand. My son has come on leaps and bounds. He is actually enjoying maths, is enthusiastic about the subject and is performing at a much higher standard. He would not have achieved this if it was not for David. David has a good structure of learning and I would highly recommend his services to anyone having difficulty with maths

I'm so pleased with his progress and it's been an absolute pleasure.
