About Leo
I am a third-year Medical student at the University of Manchester, and I have always had a strong interest in teaching, academic development, and helping students succeed in competitive exams.
I personally sat the 11+ entrance exam and achieved a score in the 95th percentile, gaining a place at Bournemouth Grammar School. Having gone through the exam process myself, I have first-hand understanding of what it takes to succeed — not just in terms of knowledge, but also in exam technique, speed, accuracy, and confidence under pressure.
Following this, I went on to achieve strong academic results at every stage of my education, including high GCSE grades and A*A*A at A-Level, before securing a place at medical school. This academic journey has given me a clear understanding of progression through selective education and the expectations placed on high-achieving students.
I am particularly aware that the 11+ is not just about what a child knows, but how they think under timed conditions. Many students struggle not because of ability, but because they are unfamiliar with the style of reasoning, question formats, and pressure involved in the exam. My aim is to bridge that gap.
Alongside my studies, I have several years of tutoring experience, working with students of different ages and abilities. I enjoy breaking down complex ideas into simple, structured steps and building confidence gradually. I also have experience supporting students who may lack confidence, struggle with focus, or find traditional classroom environments overwhelming.
Above all, I genuinely enjoy teaching and find it very rewarding to see students improve, gain confidence, and begin to believe in their own ability.
About the lesson
- All Levels

All languages in which the lesson is available :
English
My lessons are specifically designed around the 11+ entrance exam, including preparation for grammar school and independent school entry.
The 11+ requires a combination of skills that are not always taught in school, including:
Verbal Reasoning
Non-Verbal Reasoning
English comprehension and grammar
Mathematical reasoning and problem-solving
Speed, accuracy, and exam technique under timed conditions
My teaching approach focuses on developing these skills in a structured and supportive way. Rather than simply going through questions, I help students understand how to think like the exam, so they are able to approach unfamiliar problems with confidence.
Each lesson is fully tailored to the student’s ability level and target school. For some students, this may mean focusing on core content and building foundations. For others, it may involve more advanced exam practice, timed papers, and refining exam technique.
Lessons are interactive and engaging, with a strong emphasis on guided problem-solving. I avoid long lectures and instead work through questions step-by-step with the student, encouraging them to explain their thinking and develop independent reasoning skills. This approach helps build both confidence and long-term understanding.
A key focus of my tutoring is exam readiness. This includes:
Time management strategies for pressured conditions
Techniques for tackling unfamiliar or complex questions
Improving accuracy while working at speed
Building confidence with mixed-difficulty papers
Regular exposure to exam-style questions
I also provide ongoing support between lessons where needed. Students can ask questions outside of sessions, and I am happy to provide feedback on additional work or practice questions. Where useful.
Lessons are typically 50 minutes and delivered online via webcam, making them flexible and accessible. The structure and pace of lessons are always adapted depending on the student’s goals, current level, and exam timeline.
My overall aim is not just to improve performance in the 11+ exam, but to build a strong foundation of confidence, reasoning ability, and exam technique that will support students throughout their future academic journey.

I'm so glad to have found Leo, I was considering dropping Psychology before as I was very behind and didn't like my teacher but its now my favourite A-Level. He clearly loves the subject which really comes across in the lessons. I'm sure he will make an amazing doctor one day!!! Thanks Leo!
Fantastic tutor. Our daughter has improved hugely in A-level Biology, both in understanding and exam technique. She feels much more confident going into her exams this summer. Reliable, supportive, and always very easy to work with logistics wise.
Leo is a fantastic teacher who has truly been a blessing. He has taught both Biology and Chemistry to my son, Finn, all the way through from year 11 to currently in year 13.
Finn always leaves the sessions feeling much more confident in his ability and praises Leo highly as a teacher, even saying that he makes it enjoyable which was unheard of before!
Leo's communication with me is great too, he regularly sends me updates on Finn's progress, written advice before every test/ exam and is flexible when there are changes to the schedule.
Couldn't recommend Leo higher.Leo’s been a fantastic Biology tutor for my son. He’s friendly, patient, and really good at explaining tricky topics in a way that makes sense. My son’s confidence has grown so much since starting lessons with him. couldn’t recommend him enough!
Leo's help was invaluable for my A-Levels. He doesn't just teach the content, he teaches you how to answer exam questions to get the maximum marks. A fantastic tutor if you're serious about improving your grade.
Highly recommend Leo! He's super approachable and creates a really supportive environment where no question feels stupid. He was a massive help in building my confidence for the exams.
Leo has supported both of my two sons doing their GCSE and A-Levels for biology and chemistry. He’s also been invaluable helping my oldest with his application to medical school. He’s takes the time to send detailed updates, post session summaries and resources, going above and beyond my expectations of him. I feel lots of pressure taken off supporting my kids with their exams since having Leo as their tutor. Would and have already recommended to friends. 10/10
I was recommended Leo for psychology tuition from a friend whose daughter worked with him throughout A-Levels and couldn’t have been more impressed by his teaching. My son James regretted taking Psychology beforehand but went from dreading it to finding it his favorite subject. They have been working together for around 6 months now and his grades have had a complete turnaround. His best quality I believe is how engaging he makes the subject. Thanks Leo! Sally
Leo is such a fantastic tutor. I started with him towards the end of year 12 when the content got more overwhelming and I needed extra help outside of school and Leo did that perfectly. He has such a talent for explaining difficult concepts in such an easily understandable way which gave me a lot more confidence come exams. Leo actually completed all the content with me before school did! I could not recommend him enough. Thank you Leo!
Leo is a very experienced and knowledgeable tutor and I have worked alongside Leo as a fellow tutor. He takes great pride and care in ensuring each lesson is specific to the tutees needs and also very engaging. I could not recommend Leo enough!
Leo is a really excellent tutor. He has been helping my son who is in Year 12 for 4 months and we've seen huge improvements in understanding and confidence . Leo is a natural teacher: intelligent, warm, knowledgeable and intuitive. He is flexible, calm and reliable to deal with. Can't recommend him highly enough.
Leo is absolutely lovely. He is kind and patient and super-helpful. And he really knows his stuff!
Leo is hard-working, generous with his time and was extremely supportive with my son Felix's Chemisty A'Level exam. He went above and beyond and his age and experience really inspired and connected with my son. I highly recommend Leo as a tutor.
Leo is a really helpful and kind lad who really knows his stuff
Since we were little, Leo’s always been a genuine kind hearted person. Very smart, down to earth and humble but also just a cool guy. If I was going to trust anyone to teach me chemistry, it would be
Leo.Leo gave an excellent presentation within my workplace. He was warm and engaging with an easy manner as well as very knowledgeable. We had tech issues which he wasn’t phased by. He was open to answering a range of question's from a variety of people. He also checked in with us to assess our understanding. I would definitely recommend him as a trustworthy tutor.
Leo is bright, clever and inquisitive- I have no doubt that what ever he puts his hand to will be creative and fun, he is hard working and knowledgeable as well as prompt and totally trustworthy.
I have know Leo since he was a toddler and he has always been conscientious and kind. I would recommend him as he personable and organised.
Leo is a delightful young man and an excellent tutor to our kids. They breezed through their GCSEs and I have no doubt Leo played a big role in that!
He related the theory to fun, interesting examples and I am quite sure he’ll be an excellent doctor. Highly recommended.I've known Leo for about fifteen years. He has always been full of curiosity and energy, fun and creativity. He is genuinely interested in people, and intuitive and wise. Unfortunately, I have not had the opportunity to observe him tutoring, but I am confident that he will establish a great relationship with his students, and be able to inspire and tailor his teaching to their needs. I have no hesitation in recommending him.
Leo tutored me in biology last year and helped me get an A*. He is a very open and friendly person and also a great tutor. Really patient and explains the content clearly. Highly recommend.
Leo is genuinely a top bloke. Always been a really kind, friendly guy and is a good laugh as well. Having known him for over 7 years, I can confidently recommend that Leo is an excellent tutor
