Superb! Chirag and all the AP Guru that were provided gave my son the boost in confidence and the knowledge to complete his A level's with a self-assurance that had been previously missing. The gut feeling is that he has done really well and will achieve a minimum of A grades in Physics, Chemistry & Maths, which will secure his place at Uni. Thanks to AP Guru!

Kavita was a wonderful tutor for my daughter during the months running up to A-level Maths. She clearly explained the areas that my daughter was struggling with. In addition to covering problem topics, Kavita boosted my daughter's confidence, which is almost as important as the academic content. I couldn't rate Kavita more highly.

I used AP Guru for about 4 years for my girls - GCSEs, and A levels. They were really helpful in providing the appropriate tutors for different subjects and working around their schedule. Highly recommended!
