Edward Townsend Education Reviews 11

Edward is an amazing tutor. For the ESAT, he helped me understand the most effective ways to prepare as well as the best strategies to take on the exam which ultimately resulted in me receiving interviews from both Cambridge and Imperial, with an offer from Imperial. Thank you very much Edward. I appreciate all that you’ve done for me.

He’s a really good tutor. Knows his stuff quite well. Teaches really well and is really patient when students ask lots of questions. Does take time to understand questions before answering to gain a full understanding so would recommend sending questions in advance.

Edward's passion for maths and helping his students thrive is evident through his helpful sessions. His style of teaching involves helping the student use their pre existing knowledge to formulate plans to navigate complex problems. He is extremely patient and supportive, and tries to help the student think on their own rather than showing them the answer immediately. I find this type of approach to be very beneficial for deepening my understanding of math instead of just passively watching how a question is answered.

Great company, as well as a really good teacher. Worked through complex questions together and constructively in a fashion that was very similar to both the style of teaching/ questioning in both my Imperial and Cambridge Interviews. Receiving offers from both Imperial and Cambridge felt very rewarding and special given the fact I was the only one in my school to receive offers from these universities, I believe Edward's guidance and tutoring was a big reason why I even had the confidence to apply in the first place.

Edward really helped me understand physics topics that I had struggled with or had not focused on enough by myself. He also helped me improve my exam-writing style and taught me how to approach different types of exam questions.

Edward is a very patient and organised teacher. Highly recommended!!

Edward is a great tutor who provides continuous support, has plenty of his own resources and access to a massive range of other resources and answers questions very well and smoothly!

We’ve had an excellent experience with Edward as a Maths and Physics tutor for my son. Over the past year, he has been consistently professional, reliable, and highly effective in his teaching.
What really stands out is his ability to break down complex topics into clear, manageable steps. My son has gained not only a much stronger understanding of both subjects, but also greater confidence in approaching challenging problems independently.
Edward is patient, encouraging, and adapts his teaching style to suit my son’s needs, which has made a significant difference to his progress. His support with exam preparation and problem-solving techniques has been especially valuable.
I would highly recommend Edward to any parent looking for high-quality support in Maths and Physics, as well as guidance with academic progression.
Thank you again for all your hard work and dedication.

Edward was really helpful and supportive to my son as a tutor. He was very knowledgeable in terms of subject expertise and also flexed his tutoring style to get the most of his tutee as not one size fits all. Very accommodating on scheduling and provided me with some really useful feedback to help my son outside of tutoring.
I would definitely recommend his tutoring services.

Edward was of amazing help! It is clear he knew the ESAT specification well and i would definitely recommend atleast a few sessions with him as ESAT material is limited and acess to work solutions is difficult to find so having someone to help explain questions is definitely necessary.
