Testimonials

"Mr. Russell has been an incredible History tutor! Before working with them, I felt overwhelmed by the amount of content and didn’t know how to structure my study time. His teaching style made everything so much clearer. He broke down complex topics into manageable pieces and connected everything to real-world examples, which made the subject way more interesting. His energy made each lesson fun and memorable."

"He helped me develop better essay-writing skills and taught me how to analyze sources effectively, which were super important for the IB exams. Thanks to his guidance, I felt confident going into the exams and ended up doing really well. I don’t think I could’ve done it without his support!"
