We have used the tutoring services of Mr Pirthipal for Chemistry, Physics, Biology and Mathematics for over four years now, for our son who attends Cheadle Hulme School. He has proved to be a considered and thorough tutor and one that has been able to put our son at ease from the very first lesson. He has worked at a pace to suit our son and we have been able to see confidence levels grow in all subjects. He has helped our son to get ‘exam ready’ for his GCSEs and subsequently we all feel much more confident about results day in August. He has ben reliable, punctual and courteous and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

“Mr Pirthipal tutored my daughter, Beth, in the period before her GCSEs. She had missed significant time at school. He was patient, knowledgeable, motivating and able to explain concepts in an understandable manner. Beth would often comment how caring and calming he was. His input was, without doubt, a significant contributing factor in Beth's attainment of 8 GCSEs - all above B grade. “ Mr B(Heald Green)
