“We asked Keystone to support our daughters with two tutoring sessions per week to complement virtual schooling during the COVID-19 lockdown. Cameron and James helped enormously, building the girls’ confidence by bridging gaps in maths and strengthening their approach in English. At the girls’ request the tutoring sessions continued through a staycation summer and now, again, in parallel to a new virtual academic school year. Thank you to the Keystone team for the expertise, energy, and making learning fun.” (Parents of Year 5 and 7 students in KSA.)

"Kate has not only helped me to understand the hardest topics in IB Biology HL and how to memorise the knowledge but she has also made me appreciate the subject. Thanks to her, I discovered a passion for biology that I previously was not aware of. We often say that students learn better and get better grades when they like the teacher. Kate is the proof that this is true. Unfortunately, this year we have not been able to prove out abilities during the end of year exams but I am sure that I would have performed really well thanks to Kate’s tutoring."

Oli is a terrific teacher and offers guidance and assistance just at the right place and time whenever needed. He is experienced, thoughtful and patient; always providing the right supporting material to help my children learn and excel. What’s more important is that Oli makes the classes enjoyable with his input, perspective and interesting learning materials. My children especially find him kind and understanding, which we all appreciate greatly. He pays careful attention to details and is always encouraging. I will certainly have my children continue their studies with Oli in the coming years." - (Mother of Year 9 and Year 7 students in Hong Kong)

''My daughter had about 6 sessions with Daniel. Amazingly, she is now able to resolve even the more challenging questions in mechanics. Daniel always made very good preparation before the sessions, and his way of teaching is effective. My daughter is picky, but Daniel must be very good at communicating with her as she enjoyed the lessons and made improvements very quickly. She is very happy with Daniel. She has finished all the relevant assignments from the school now, and her self confidence has improved. It really brought a nice close to her Maths study at A level. As a parent, I am very happy to see that she has closed the gap in an important topic [Mechanics], which means a lot to her.'' (Mother of a Year 13 student - Online lessons)

''I’m not sure if you remember my son but you tutored him in Latin & Greek for the St Pauls & Westminster scholarship exams last year. I think I told you that he was offered places at both schools and chose St Paul’s. I just wanted to let you know that he’s doing incredibly well in both subjects and recently came top of the year in recent Latin exams and third in Greek. He’s chosen to take both subjects for GCSE and is really enjoying it. Your tutoring made such a difference to his ability, confidence and enjoyment in these subjects so I just wanted to thank you again.'' (Mother of Scholarship student)

What’s more, what stood out was my daughter's verbal reasoning which she always felt was her weakest area.

I think you helped their dreams come true." (Mother of 11+ student)

He thoroughly enjoyed his weekly sessions with Lara and his writing improved noticeably within just a month or two. Her teaching approach is effective and she is patient and professional. It has been very easy working with her - she gave my son very accurate and actionable feedback which was extremely helpful. She has been amazing and we highly recommend her." (Mother of 11+ student)

''I’ve been meaning to write to thank Harry so much for his very hard work. I turned to Keystone when I realised just how challenging the 11+ was for my daughter and when it was really beginning to impact upon our mother daughter relationship. Keystone was quick to react and efficient in finding us not only someone but the right one in Harry. Harry not only took the responsibility (and pain!) away from me, he hooked in my daughter with lots of fun games and got to know her style of working quickly. Harry was always encouraging, positive and fun, and my daughter left his sessions joyful and bouncy, despite the tough work. She made vast improvements in both her comprehension and her descriptive writing with simple tools that he gave her. If anyone at all needs a recommendation on Harry I would give it wholeheartedly. My daughter has so far heard back from 2 out of the 3 schools she has applied to and she is on a 100% success rate so far – 1 to go!'' (Mother of 11+ student)

She lacks confidence but I was surprised to see how quickly she built a rapport with William and she feels comfortable to ask questions when she does not understand something. She claims that 'William is her favourite tutor'. He is very personable, friendly and the way he approaches the lessons keeps my daughter focused and engaged. I would have no hesitation in recommending William to other parents." (Mother of Year 11 student)

''I wanted to get in touch with you to express my feedback regarding my daughter’s tutorials with Andy Wimbush. My daughter wished to apply to Oxbridge but felt helpless as to how to tackle all parts of the application and develop the right skills and strategies needed for a competitive application. Thanks to Andy, she was able to build up her knowledge of Literature, learn new approaches and perspectives and received all guidance and support she needed over the several months of the application process. Andy has been able to challenge her and thus always push her to bring out her maximum abilities, and my daughter is endlessly grateful for having had the opportunity to work and learn in such an engaging, creative and stimulating way. Andy has always been genial, positive, encouraging, and excellent at giving constructive criticism that helped my daughter see her strengths and weaknesses and improve her skills in a targeted way. In addition, he also helped her come to an enhanced self-confidence when discussing Literature. He always adjusted his lessons to my daughter’s personal needs and thus ensured that she could get everything out of their lessons. Andy helped my daughter, who was only 16 at the time of applying to Oxford, and who is not a native speaker of English, to go through the application process successfully. Last week, my daughter was offered a place in the college to which she applied. Altogether, Andy’s help was invaluable.'' (Mother of Oxford English Candidate.)
20 January 2020
''I can’t thank you enough for all of your support and guidance, it was most definitely the distinguishing factor that helped me to get an offer.

I truly could not have done it without you. Your teaching methods and advice work!'' (Successful Cambridge applicant)

"I think this has been an excellent option for us in our particular situation (i.e. stationed in Kuwait). We did look for local tutors in Kuwait but couldn’t find anyone suitable. Keystone was recommended to us by a friend in Kuwait and to be honest we were a little dubious about the remote nature of this format of tutoring. However, we have been pleasantly surprised how well the technology has worked. My son has found the on-line nature of the tutoring very easy to work with and is very competent in its use. Kate has been an excellent tutor and provides a very positive and supportive environment to work within. The materials that she has used have been fit for purpose and adapted to the level at which Dexter is working. Kate has been very responsive to our communications and has been able to adapt timings of sessions to meet our needs. She has also turned around his homework in good time so that they can work together on it during each session. Overall this has been a very positive experience for us and we would recommend it to others in our situation." (Parent of Year 8 student)

He is always very punctual and accommodating in terms of her learning, by this I mean sometimes they may do English Literature and other times focus on the Language part. He is very flexible and can do this on the day. My daughter says that he explains things in a way which is clear to understand and that she enjoys her sessions with him. He is very encouraging (and hopefully bringing out the best in her). This is lovely to hear, as she doesn't normally enjoy English lessons!" (Mother of GCSE English student)

James tutored our daughter over a series of intensive sessions during a month or so in the lead up to iGCSEs. His insights and guidance over these sessions gave her a wider and different perspective from that she had gained from her English lessons over the past three years. James was well-prepared for the tutorials and his input was tailor-made to address our daughter's concerns and questions. Above all, James instilled in our daughter the confidence that she could excel in both her English Language and World Literature iGCSEs; this self-belief being particularly important for someone who speaks mostly Swedish at home and therefore views the subjects from a bi-lingual perspective. In the event she was graded a "9" for English Language, scoring 83.4% vs the "9" grade boundary of 80%; this compared with her mock exam grade of "6". For World Literature, she was graded an "A*"; this compared with her mock exam grade of "A" (Father of a GCSE student)

Dominic motivated me to believe in my ability which greatly improved my confidence." (A Level Chemistry Student)

"Every lesson with Oli is so much more than just an hour of instruction. I learned to think in these classes and that is something I am so grateful for. The results speak for themselves; I achieved a 45/45 in the IB program and was the world’s highest scorer in English literature’s drama paper, with a 25/25, and a near perfect score on the unseen poetry analysis paper, with 19/20. I must attribute my success in IB also in some part to the revision strategies that I learned during our time together. He is much more than a teacher of English and he really does go the extra mile. Dependable is the word that best describes him in the context of our relationship, and brilliant is the word that defines him generally. There are no safer hands than Oli’s!" (IB English Student)

Even at times they were unmotivated or tired you could hold their attention for one hour, which in their case is a mighty achievement. They really liked your personality. Progress was clearly visible, and my son still remembers the timetables tricks you have taught him! Lesson summaries via email were very effective and a great reference. We are really sorry to be loosing you due to our move out of London and only hope that we will find other tutors like yourself. We wish you all the best and thank you again for your contribution."

"As our daughter started her A-levels Philosophy and she had never studied this subject before. I asked Keystone Tutors to recommend a tutor in this subject for her. Andy Wimbush has been helping her with her preparations for Philosophy A-level exams and I can highly recommend him. Andy is not only very qualified in this subject but he is dedicated in making the subject undertandable and showed her the different methods one works for to get the grades desired for Philosophy. In the beginning he helped her learn this subjects needs and then started to give her some homework to hone her skills in understanding Philosophy. Andy is also highly qualified in English and helped our daughter in her EPQ by teaching her to plan well and to learn how to prove and reproof her work. I am happy to say that she received the highest grade possible for this work. Andy has been a godsend as he knew how to keep her calm and focused on her work during the A-levels two years and exams. He has always been punctual and a pleasure to have in our home." (Mother of A Level Philosophy and EPQ Student)

For this boy as well as our family, it is a major success. My son arrived in UK just 1.5 years ago, and his English was rather limited at that time.

He is incredibly enthusiastic and passionate about Maths, and this really comes across during his lessons, which is inspiring my daughter. His enjoyment of the subject is really infectious. Also, he has been very reponsive to my requests for sharing study-skills/time management strategies with my daughter, these areas perhaps being more of an issue for her than the actual Maths.

"I just wanted to drop you a note to let you know that in the post today we received an offer for my daughter to take up a place at Queenswood School in September for Year 7. And to top that, she scored so highly in the 11+ exam, she was awarded a Year 7 Academic Scholarship. We are absolutely delighted and thrilled as this was always our target though the Scholarship is a wonderful and unexpected surprise! I just wanted to formally record my sincerest thanks for all Steph has done. When we first came to you, my daughter’s Maths was in good shape but her English ability was much weaker and unsupported at school, causing us some concern as we realised she was a long way from being 'exam ready'. Without Steph, I don't actually know where we would be or how we would have resolved this. She has absolutely transformed my daughter’s English skills. Steph gave her a framework and a range of practical techniques to follow when she was in the exam, has encouraged her to read more in the last few months than she has done through her whole time in Juniors, has offered rigour and professional critique in the curriculum they covered together and inspired her to really believe she could succeed. And all in one hour a week! You guys have been the best find and I am so very grateful. Sincerest thanks to you all for helping us to fulfil our ambition for our daughter - in putting her on the path for an opportunity that will shape her life." (Mother of 11+ student)
