Miss Poonam
Has been my son’s tutor for the past 4 years and has recently started with my 5 year old daughter.
No matter the ability of the child Miss Poonam’s method of teaching is adapted accordingly. I have witnessed her dedication and love of teaching, she knows how to engage the attention of the child and keep them focused on the problem at hand all the while making it seem effortless and fun.
I have no hesitation in highly recommending Miss Poonam as a mathematics tutor as she has proved to be a highly skilled tutor and mentor to my children.Poonam is a massive blessing. After struggling with A-level maths at the beginning of year 12 we decided to get Daniel a tutor. Immediately there was an improvement in his grades at school and overall attitude towards the subject. He got an A* at the end which would not have been possible without Poonam. Highly recommend Poonam for A-level Maths tutoring.
Poonam is an amazing teacher. She is very engaging and makes maths fun! My daughter really looks forward to her lessons with Poonam and has made tremendous progress.
I can not thank Poonam enough for my son's fantastic result. Poonam is an excellent tutor who really knew exactly how to boost my son's grade and make him enjoy maths. I wish we had found her sooner! Thank you very much we could not be happier.
Poonam has been an exceptional tutor for my daughter during her GCSEs. My daughter was struggling with maths and was not feeling confident in taking her exams. Poonam was very patient and always helped my daughter surpass boundaries. Her school predicted her a 5 but she ended up scoring an 8. Very happy with the result.
Poonam taught both my sons GCSE and A levels this year and they got top grades-9 in GCSE and A* in Maths.
We are very fortunate to have found her. Despite of her busy timetable she was flexible when needed.
She encouraged my sons at every step and also challenged them through various resources.She has a very good knowledge of different Exam boards.
Highly recommendMy son needed a tutor as his school was not offering support for further maths GCSE. Thanks to Poonam dedication, professionalism and mastery of the subject my son got outstanding grades at all his assessments obtaining a 9 at FM GCSE.
Poonam was also able to nurture his interest for maths. This year he has decided to continue tutoring with Poonam for A level Further Maths.Poonam has helped our son progress with his A-level Maths and Further Maths. In particular, she has helped him in better understanding the difficult topics and the exam questions in order to achieve the highest possible grades. My son found her teaching style very interesting and engaging.Her knowledge of different exam boards is exceptional.
Poonam is very dedicated in teaching maths. She went through all topics and gave plenty of practice qus to improve. Our daughter's confidence increased a great deal and she achieved teh 9 in GCSE that she was striving for.
I would highly recommend Poonam.I couldn’t recommend Poonam more highly as a tutor for maths GCSEs. She comes to each lesson highly prepared - having circulated prep in advance. The sessions themselves are super productive which keeps my daughter focused without the stress. As a result, Natasha has regained her confidence and indeed enjoyment of maths - materially changing the results from mocks. My only regret is that I didn’t discover Poonam earlier - and that she doesn’t teach more subjects.
Poonam tutored my son once a week for about 9 months when he was sitting for all the 11+ / 13+ school exams. She was immediately able to engage him, he found it extremely helpful to have her support. She is very organised and provides great material for children to work on during the week. Poonam has very clear communication and provides timely feedback when parents need to do anything different / additional . Would highly recommend Poonam.
My son just could not keep up in maths. He'd had two years of math teachers that really let him down, but Poonam was able to turn this all around.
Poonam helped my son with his maths prep for 11+. When he started with her he had quite a few gaps in his knowledge. Poonam was able to swiftly identify the gaps, improve his skills and also taught him to apply it in exam questions. She did this an engaging manner helping him boost his confidence as well.
Once his knowledge was complete she then worked with him on improving exam technique, personalising it for each school exam and their methods.
The result has been fantastic and my son has gotten the schools he wanted. I could not recommend her more.Our son has been tutored by Poonam for the past 2 years. He was struggling with A level maths and lacked confidence. After a few lessons with Poonam,we noticed a huge change. Poonam has been an excellent tutor taking my son from a B to getting an A* in his A level exam. She is an experienced tutor and the methods she uses have been perfect for A levels.We are also very grateful to her for her patience and understanding as she made a lot of effort not only to make my son understand the topics but also make him achieve top grades.
Poonam has been teaching my son for more than a year and has proved to be a very knowledgeable & organised teacher. She has great understanding of the latest specifications and expectations of what is required of the student. Poonam has helped my son achieve a grade '9' in GCSE maths and more importantly A level offers for Maths and Further Maths at a very successful grammar school. I would highly recommend Poonam as a Maths tutor.
I would like to say a very big thank you,Poonam, for your patience and mentoring during your maths lessons with my son.
Poonam combines both a high level of professionalism and knowledge.She engages students very well and helps them exceed expectations in terms of academic results.She works very hard to improve grades using her subject knowledge and exam techniques.
She has been very popular as a tutor and I am glad we found her.Excellent tutor; able to focus and develop confidence in areas where the school has not spent time on.
Poonam was patient and very thorough. Our son had previously struggled with the GCSE course, but she instilled so much confidence in him that he has now chosen to take Maths at A Level.
Poonam is qualified, Experienced, Dedicated and outstanding teacher/tutor. Her teaching methods are exceptional. My daughter achieved grade 9 in GCSE Maths from a 6. I’m very pleased with her that we have started doing A’Level maths. Highly recommended.
Both my children were helped by Poonam and they did brilliantly in their GCSE exams. She is an excellent teacher and I highly recommend her!
Poonam is a very enthusiastic and focussed tutor. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
She has a thorough knowledge of the different exam boards and syllabi and her tuition concentrates on this. Her approach is a more holistic approach to the understanding of maths so that all potential problems found on papers can be addressed. She provides the necessary learning so that no maths paper should be approached with fear.I was truly blessed to have Poonam tutoring me for my GCSE for last two years.I would never have believed that I would have got a grade 9. However Thanks to Poonam this is a reality and from her perfect teaching strategy she was able to develop my interest in maths. She is a very sincere and dedicated teacher who works very hard with students to bring them many levels up. Poonam is highly motivating and is a true inspiration. I now look forward to starting A levels with her from September.
Poonam is fantastic teacher. She cares about every lesson outcome and gives lots of homework related to the current topic to make sure the student knows it well. Her lessons are all very well thought in advance and her experience makes it work in the most effective way.
My son has started to take lessons a year prior to his GCSEs with a very low grades and has ended up with the 3 marks off 9 which is very top!! It is HUGE and PROFESSIONAL work that she has been doing all year with him and it is very highly appreciated!! Highly recommended!Poonam goes beyond the expectations of a tutor. She is passionate about maths and her wealth of experience is used to adapt the session to each child’s ability and mood on the day. She takes a personal interest in the child and has a natural ability to achieve his / her full potential. She has worked a miracle with our daughter who looks forward to her sessions. Our daughter’s words: ‘Poonam challenges me but is fun.’ Poonam got our daughter into our first choice of 7+ school and we did nothing outside her sessions with Poonam. Fingers crossed you get a slot in her schedule as once you have one, you will not give it up!!!
We had the opportunity of meeting Poonam via this site website. She started training our daughter late Dec for Maths. Throughout the training period and during the exams she has been a constant support to not only our daughter but also our family. My daughter has gone from having nightmares in Maths to falling in love with Maths. She is more than just tutor, she is a mentor and a coach.
My daughter have had the pleasure to work with Poonam for the past one year and just within few months of lessons she was moved to the top maths group in her class.Poonam is qualified,knows about real exams,very organized teacher and developed inspiring relationship with my daughter.
Poonam has taught maths to my son for his IGCSE and later A level. She has indepth knowledge of the subject and passion to deliver results. Her vast experience and knowledge of different exam boards were exceptional.My son liked her tutoring style very much and found the lessons really useful.She is very commmitted in bringing best results with her students. Thanks Poonam for your encouragement and support!
“Now we understand!” they both said.
We came to see Poonam only two and a half weeks before Joy’s first GCSE exam. In this incredibly short time she helped Joy advance from a poor grade 4(C) mock result to a grade 7(A). Her clear and precise teaching helped Joy to understand and organise her learning. She explained many ways to tackle questions, showed valuable exam technique and formulas which all helped to consolidate Joy’s knowledge.
Seeing her sister’s progress and increased confidence, my elder daughter asked for last minute lessons to clarify her understanding. She showed her many new methods and she too achieved a grade A.
Poonam gave both my daughters the wealth of her expansive knowledge, delivered with varied and clear methodology, but more importantly she instilled confidence and belief in their own abilities. Imagine their results if we’d found her sooner!?
I can’t recommend her highly enough!!Poonam has been tutoring my son for approximately three months.
She has been a first class Tutor to date, with exceptional skills in making him understand difficult Maths questions. He is going to be entering into his GCSE year in September and Poonam will be tutoring him for a year prior to his exams. My son really looks forward to his tutorials with Poonam because he comes out of each tutorial able to solve problems which he found difficult during his Maths lessons at school.
Poonam is a ‘Marker’ for the GCSE exams, so she knows exactly what is required to get good grades.Poonam has been tutoring my daughter (year 9) for almost a year now. Her methods, approach and teaching style are excellent. Her support has been tremendous and it has helped my daughter further her interest in the subject.
Poonam is a fantastic tutor for 11+ entrance. Our daughter got into St Paul's Girls-we are over the moon. Thank you, Poonam for all your hard work, continuous feedback, and suggestions!!
Poonam is a very sincere tutor and knows 11+ entrance requirements very well. She is very knowledgeable, professional and inspirational.My daughter made continued progress since she started preparing for her 11+ with her.
We would highly recommend Poonam to anyone who wishes to get into top schools- it needs a high level of preparation and Poonam is best at this.We were fortunate enough to find Poonam, who is a very dedicated and organised maths tutor. She has helped my daughter prepare for very tough exams and also helped with her logical thinking, reasoning and time management skills. I am sure that the work she did with my daughter helped her confidence generally and cemented her knowledge. I cannot recommend her enough!

My Son found Poonam at the beginning of his A levels.We were very pleased to see his progress and passion developed over two years of his study with Poonam. After every lesson I found him very motivated and full of praise for Poonam's teaching style.
Poonam is very committed and works very hard with her students. She is very good at bringing best in them and also motivating them to do better. She is very knowledgeable and resourceful. She makes learning of subject very interesting and targets achievable.My child just received IGCSE math and IGCSE further math results both are A*. These results have showed our tutor has helped and pushed a lot by explained all questions are not fulling understand in classes. There are extra exam papers and extra books are recommended by our tutor. She has very rich experience and high skill to explain the tough questions in the most easy and clear way to let student to understand easily. our tutor also summary all the formulas to let student understand the whole math system. She is wonderful tutor with high teaching skill and rich teaching source.
Poonam and my son met just under 3 months before his final A2 exam. From the get go her lessons were fast, organised and personally tailored. Poonam's broad knowledge of the subject saw my son tackling questions from different exam boards with varying difficulty which not only challenged him but also worked towards exam technique. Despite the short period, my son excelled noticeably but was such a shame that he met Poonam very late on. With Poonam's hard work, commitment and enthusiasm my son was able to secure a place at medical school and is very much looking forward to starting this September! I highly highly recommend Poonam - simply the best. Well done Poonam!
We live in Switzerland & are planning to move back to U.K. To prepare our son for the 13+ entrance exams we engaged Poonam for intensive private lessons. The time frame was only 10 days.
We appreciate Poonam's flexibility that she moved things around to create space for the lessons. Her priority was to assess & evaluate the level of her student & then build lessons around what our son hadn't studied in Switzerland, all within a span of 1-2days.
With the effort & dedication of teacher & student duo, our son has made it to his preferred school. We are very grateful to Poonam & can highly recommend her to whoever prioritizes their children's education.Poonam is an excellent tutor, reliable, highly competent and willing to go an extra mile for her tutees.She spent the first lesson to know more about my daughter and to find her weaknesses. She prepared my daughter to a higly reputed academic school's 13+ entrance and I must say in such a short span of time she did a fantastic job. My daughter not only made it but also got highest marks in two subjects. Poonam is extremely hardworking and focussed. She is also very knowledgeable about entrance examination requirements and preparation. My daughter found her lessons very interesting and knowledgeable. She was also quick to respond to my texts and always punctual and flexible if changes were requested. I am very pleased that my daughter got into her desired school and I have no hesitation in recommending Poonam as a tutor. Thank you Poonam for all your effort! I am glad we found you!
Poonam is a very good teacher. She points out the subjects that are less taught at school. She also helps with the exam techniques.
I asked Poonam to prepare my daughter for late 11+ maths exam and to help my son to surpass certain problems in A-level maths .She did such a wonderful job in a very short period of time. She is committed, encouraging and very kind tutor.
At the beginning of the year i was struggling with maths and I was unable to meet my target grade, which made me resent maths. However, after I met Poonam I soon started to love maths. Her teaching methods are amazing. She explains every step in detail and if you're still confused about a certain topic she will repeat it a 1000x until you fully understand it and are confident about it. Also, she'd constantly encourage me that I can do well and she pushed me out of my comfort zone and her support helped me significantly.
Ms Amit has been teaching me Mathematics for the past year and in that time, thanks to her fantastic teaching, I have made phenomenal progress.
Her ability to explain and teach complex topics is second to none. This is demonstrated by the speed at which we were able to cover topics in depth: We were able to cover all six of my modules in only six months.
Furthermore, she is able to teach all modules equally well, from core mathematics to statistics to mechanics.
All in all, I would highly recommend Ms Amit to anyone needing a Mathematics tutor.Mrs Amit is an amazing teacher who works extremely hard and has vast knowledge of what she is teaching. Therefore without doubt she will be able to tutor her students to achieve the grades they want and get into whatever college or university they want.
Poonam is an excellent tutor and helped me greatly. My mathematical confidence has grown hugely and I would recommend her to everyone.
I am without doubt that throughout my A-levels the best decision I made was to come to Poonam for help. From the very first lesson I had with her it became clear that she was going to change the way I saw and dealt with maths as a subject. Her assistance in lesson and over the phone in the run up to the exams has been amazing. I plan to continue with Poonam for the entirety of my A-Levels.
Poonam is a fantastic tutor, She taught UKMT Olympiad maths challenge for my daughter. She is through in her subjects , focused and very well organised. She explained the subject very clearly. She covers exam technique, structure and how to answer to get maximum answers. Very good tutor, highly recommended. Will try again for my daughter's GSCE and A level.
