Over the years, I have had the privilege of supporting students with a wide range of abilities, goals and learning needs.
The reviews below were originally shared by parents through First Tutors following private tuition delivered before I founded SoFunFinity Maths Tuition in 2023. They have been preserved here as part of my wider tutoring history.
Every student's journey begins with confidence. These parents describe how understanding replaced anxiety and maths became enjoyable again.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I hired So Fun in September 2011 as my daughter was really struggling with maths and both myself and the school felt it was unlikely that she was going to to pass her GCSE in maths. She has been an excellent tutor, really patient and kind with my daughter. She has managed to quell her lifelong fear of mathematics, and to both her and my delight she has taken her GCSE mathematics and passed with a c grade. I do believe this was largely down to the part So Fun played and I have no hesitation in recommending her as a tutor. "

One of the most common pieces of feedback I receive is that difficult concepts are explained in a way that simply makes sense. These reviews highlight the value of patient, clear teaching that helps students truly understand mathematics.

"My daughter has been having weekly lessons with So Fun since September. So Fun made us both welcome at the first lesson which was very reassuring and made both my daughter and I feel at ease. So Fun is a fantastic tutor who is professional, enthusiastic, punctual and works hard in supporting and guiding my daughter to reach her full potential in her weekly lessons. So Fun explains things clearly and is always there to support . My daughter has just sat her end of term maths exam and scored an 8 which would not have been possible without So Fun's help as before September my daughter was achieving a grade 6 . I am very happy with So Fun and can not recommend her enough. We certainly pick the right tutor."
Lisa Pearce- Parent of a GCSE Maths student.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"So Fun was excellent with my daughter. She was very personable and engaging from the first meeting which made Ashleigh much more receptive to learning. Once the lessons had begun, So Fun showed her vast experience to find the gaps in Ashleigh’s knowledge. In this particularly difficult year for students due to the exams being made more difficult and the grade structure changing. Ashleigh went on to achieve a Grade 8 in GCSE Maths, and we couldn't have been happier with the outcome. I cannot recommend So Fun highly enough."
Steve Baldwin. Parent of a GCSE Maths student.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Thankyou, absolutely amazing tutor. Our son wouldn't have passed his GCSE without your help."
Jamie Anderson- Parent of a GCSE Maths student.
No two students learn in exactly the same way. These reviews demonstrate how lessons are carefully adapted to each student's individual strengths, gaps in knowledge and learning style, helping them make meaningful progress at their own pace.

"So Fun was happy to meet with us before starting with any maths tutoring , and after having a few session with my daughter I am more than happy to let So Fun go forward the way she sees fit, always prompt and well prepared."
Dawn Perkins- Parent of a KS3 student.
Success in maths is about more than examination results. These reviews show how growing confidence and strong mathematical foundations can open doors to further study, university, careers and exciting opportunities beyond the classroom.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Professional, punctual and extremely thorough. Very happy indeed - I know that our son is getting the very best support in maths! Following on from my previous feedback we have now had So Fun teach my son for several months leading up to his Common Entrance exams. We could not be more pleased - she has proven herself to be so professional and thorough in her teaching. Always going the extra mile to ensure that all subjects are covered. My son ended up getting an "A" in this maths exam - thanks to So Fun's excellent teaching. Even after his exams were finished Jake had requested that he keep up his maths sessions with So Fun as he enjoyed them so much. She is even going to teach his younger brother as he has seen how much he has enjoyed them! We are very grateful for all So Fun's help."
Arabella Kump- Parent of a Common Entrance student.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Amazing and patient teacher. with just a few teaching sessions I was able to pass my resit exam. would highly recommend So Fun for all ages of learning. Gave me different methods and ideas in approaching topics that I had struggled with before and boosted my confidence before the exam. many thanks."
Thomas Lacey- Adult learner, Royal Navy maths qualification.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"So today my son gained an 8 (A* in old money) for his maths GCSE, which follows inspiring and comprehensive tutoring by the best teacher he has ever come across. I can only say a big thank you as this has literally changed the course of his career as he is now able to study maths at A level. My intuition was spot on that calm, comprehensive maths tutoring, which he actually thoroughly enjoyed and looked forward to would make all the difference. In short thank you so much!"
