Best Private Tutors in Blackrod, Greater manchester (2025)

Rating: 5 / 5

I can't speak highly enough about tuition at KIP. My daughter has gained so much confidence in her own ability. She really enjoys learning at KIP, loves the tutors and has made friends there too. It's such a welcoming environment with the emphasis on learning at your child's individual pace. Regular assessments enable you to monitor their progress. I originally enrolled my daughter at KIP when she was in year 6 to provide extra tuition towards her SATs but because she enjoys it so much and her progress was evident, I decided to continue. KIP has also helped with starting High School too as her learning continued throughout the summer holidays.

My daughter really struggled with high school and has complex needs. She has been attending Kip McGrath twice a week. She is engaged in learning again, enjoying it and making progress. In such a short space of time she has gained back years of confidence that was lost in mainstream. Thanks 😊

My daughter has been attending Kip McGrath in Wigan for little over 18months, and WOW what a difference it has made, her reading and comprehension have come on in leaps and bounds and I 100% factor that to the input from Kip. I am so glad I took the step in investing in my daughters education I certainly do not regret it. My daughter loves her time there and looks forward to attending, classes are flexible, the staff are so friendly and accommodating. If you're thinking of additional tuition I'd recommend Kip McGrath hands down.

We have been using kip McGrath’s since just after lockdown (so for about 2 and half years) and our daughter is now in her last 6 months of high school. She has learned so much while attending her sessions and her confidence has come on loads. I’m confident that all the help and support she has received at kip McGrath’s will make a massive difference when she sits her GCSES this year. I would recommend Kip McGrath’s to anyone who is looking for some extra tutoring for there children, the staff are so friendly, helpful and very professional 😊

My daughter has been in the tuition with Sam over 1year, and she has the significant improvement on Maths and English. Sam is a kind and patient teacher. His teaching skill is perfectly designed for the students on the different levels. We are so happy and lucky and will carry on the Studies with Sam.

My daughter has recently started Maths and Science tuition lessons with Sam and I am extremely happy with the progress she has made so far. My daughter is enjoying her sessions and I am seeing her confidence increasing in both subjects. I would highly recommend Sam to any parent who’s child needs extra support in these subjects.

Rating: 5 / 5

Sam is a great tutor: he has built my daughters confidence so much. Sam’s approach is very child focused and he makes sure each session is fun which keeps my daughter interested as well and learning. Sam is always aware of what skills need support and provides sessions to improve. My daughter really enjoys the sessions and is receptive to Sam’s positive approach. I strongly recommend Sam and kip McGrath Horwich.

Sam helped my daughter for Bolton School year 7 admission test which was great. She had secured a place in the school last year and we have referred many of our friends to Sam. Sam is really hard working and sincere with his profession. Thanks Sam

I enrolled my son here when we first came to the UK. That was 2 years ago. He couldn't speak a word of English. Now with the help of school and extra support from Excel 2 Learn, the tutors and management, his most recent school report has arrived with glowing reviews and excellent feedback on his progress. Many thanks for your support.

Excellent tuition provided and tailored to my child’s specific education. Great communication with Javid who is always available to respond to any queries and concerns. The fees are very reasonable as well compared to many other similar services. Would highly recommend!

I have been using this institution for many years, starting with my eldest son who is now studying in University. I have then admitted my other two children in this institution and have seen a massive spike in their grades and attitude to learn in school. I have seen their grades improve and confidence grow when going to school. I would totally recommend this tuition centre if you would like to see your child's grades and attitude towards learning improve.

My daughter has been attending Top Grades for two years now. She’s moved up a maths set but more importantly maths has become her favourite lesson (previously her worst) and I’m amazed at how much she has grown in confidence. In her own words’I wish all the teachers at school were like Richard because he explains everything so well and I get it.’ She has recently started English too and Emma has been fantastic. Already supporting her with her GCSE prep and due to Emma’s extensive knowledge and training around dyslexia is able to teach and support my daughter in the best way possible. I can’t recommend the team at Top Grades enough!

Rating: 5 / 5

Highly recommended...after a just a few months with Richard, my son's increased confidence and understanding resulted in a pass in his maths exam. Comments from my son (not a maths lover) like "the lesson went quickly" and "I actually enjoyed that" coupled with the end result shows that Richard is the guy to go to if your children need maths tuition.

Excellent tuition! My daughter attended weekly lessons to help her with English. She passed with flying colours and is now going to study T Level Engineering at Runshaw College. I would recommend Top Grades to anyone with a child who is looking to get extra tuition. Thank you Top Grades!!! Xxxx

I enrolled Liv with Top Grades during Year 8 as she was struggling with her Maths confidence. I thought was it too soon but she was becoming increasingly anxious about going to school on the days it was maths days. Richard has been amazing, Liv is now in year 9 and she is enjoying maths which was all I really wanted.

Fatima was amazing. I appreciate everything she has done for me over the past few months leading upto GCSE season. I definitely recommend her to anyone considering maths tuition.

Rating: 5 / 5

My son attended Bolton Hub Tutition for English Maths and Science. All tutors including Fatima were excellent. My son enjoyed his sessions and said the tutors were lovely. Kind friendly and understanding of his requirements. They were flexible and when i asked to move sessiin or for more it was no trouble. He received his results yesterday and passed all his subjects. Would highly recommend and would use again for my daughter. Thank you!

Fatima is fantastic. She has been so accommodating of my daughters extra educational needs. And she enjoys her maths lessons, which is a miracle! Thank you Fatima. We really appreciate all you’ve done for us.

Fatima has been tutoring my home educated child for the past year. She has been exceptional in her teaching of Maths. Approachable and friendly in her manner, she makes my child feel relaxed and so he is able to learn with ease. He has come on leaps and bounds since Fatima has been tutoring. She is incredibly supportive towards myself, being his parent too. His passion for the subject has grown and I would go as far as to say that Maths is now his most favourite subject! I am always kept up to date with progress. The Maths he has learnt with Fatima has also helped him with other subjects such as Chemistry and Physics. Really pleased with his progress and would recommend to all, her natural flair for the subject really shines through!

My daughter has been tutored by Good success since age 8 for 11plus , she passed with flying colours and got admission to Loreto Grammar school. And then continued her tutorials through high school until GCSE again passed with several A* and then for A levels and UCAT . I am very pleased to say this is the final journey and she has passed and got admission to study medicine at the university of Newcastle. The Support has been extremely great each step of the way . My sincere appreciation goes to Mr and Mrs Olowoyo and the tutors, especially Dr Jimi for their support in the past 10years . What a journey, but it’s all worth it in the end !. Once again thank you so much 🙏🏽.on behalf of my daughter and from me and my family God bless you ! Kind regards Mrs Akinrele

Garry was professional and approachable. He was flexible and able to fit in around my son's timetable. My son found the lessons very useful. Garry was able to tailor the lessons to match the content being delivered at college. He is obviously knowledgeable with respect to the current learning outcomes of the exam board. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Garry.

Excellent tutor for my son. His knowledge of the subject is great and also he has been very flexible/accommodating on scheduling. He was great support to my son's A-levels Math exam.

I found Garry through Yell and have been extremely impressed with his manner and professionalism. My Daughter was struggling with Maths and I wanted to help her get through her GSCE's. This was the one shot. Garry's easy going personality and teaching method ensured that he and Grace worked well together, even though the lesson was straight after school on a Monday! Having spoken with other people I have found that his hourly rate is very competitive and I would thoroughly recommend him if you need that boost for you or your family members. Thank you Garry.

Garry has been tutoring my daughter in the lead up to her GCSE's and my son for his end of year exams, and they have both found the sessions to be very useful, and Garry's approach has been excellent for both of them. He has instilled in them a much higher level of self confidence and they are now able to tackle maths questions with a greater level of knowledge and confidence.

I contacted Ash Tutors as I needed help with my 6 year old son who has been struggling in literacy. As a primary school teacher myself, I wanted someone who was as passionate with kids as I am and obviously it was setting the bar high to ensure his tutor met my high standards whilst I was teaching other children! I couldn't be happier with the tutor that Geoff has provided. Jo is incredibly professional, well prepared for every lesson and my son is already making tangible progress. His confidence has increased massively along with his self esteem and happiness. 5 stars from me and I already recommend Ash Tutors to other parents in a similar position. Jo truly is fantastic as what she does and I'm very happy I contacted Geoff at Ash Tutors.

Rating: 5 / 5

Geoff was absolutely brilliant on communicating and adored the extra tips sent via emails to keep my son focussed. Dr Paul who was the tutor was also fantastic and my son made advanced improvements on his grade post the support provided by the tutoring. We wholeheartedly thank Geoff and Dr Paul for the value that was provided throughout. Absolutely great service and great tutoring.

I contacted Geoff recently as I need support for my son in his final GCSE year in all three sciences. Never having used 'tutor agencies' before I was attracted to Ash Tutors as it seemed to be a little different - smaller and somehow more personal. On first contact I was very impressed with the detail to which Geoff went in assessing our needs in order to find the most appropriate tutor. Geoff put us in touch with Gemma whose approach is absolutely fantastic - super efficient, supportive and positive, going to a lot of trouble, initially and as an ongoing basis to understand our needs such that detailed learning plans are developed from a very informed perspective. She is massively enthusiastic for her subject and her teaching. Her teaching and learning strategies are engaging, fun and everything I associate with excellent teaching and a good student experience. From first contacting Geoff / Ash Tutors I can honestly say that I have been very impressed with everything about them. Most importantly there is noticeable improvement in my son's engagement with the subject and there is early indication it's resulting in better grades.

My daughter has just passed her maths GSCE after scoring a U on her mock exam. She started tutoring with Jane Keating in February 2023 and Jane really understood what she was struggling with and literally worked wonders. Thanks so much Jane, you've been amazing and I would definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a maths tutor.
