For families

We began working with Faizel about a year and a half before our daughter's 11+ assessments. Faizel's assessment highlighted her strengths and developmental priorities. Weekly sessions built conceptual mastery alongside examination readiness and technique. She secured a place at our first choice school, Godolphin & Latymer. More importantly, she's developed the identity of a confident learner.

Our son's 8+ preparation began in the Autumn term prior to his exams. Faizel quickly identified that our son had the requisite knowledge, but needed to focus on working under timed conditions. Throughout the term, sessions focused on developing his exam technique and the coaching element completely transformed his composure. We were delighted that he secured a place at St. Paul's, our first choice school!

Relocating from Dubai required specialist 11+ entry support. Faizel conducted remote consultation and assessment, followed by intensive preparation once we arrived. He addressed UK curriculum gaps whilst building confidence within a new educational context, using regular mock assessments to track progress. Our daughter secured her place at St Paul’s Girls’ School with assurance and readiness.

Six-month 7+ preparation for Sussex House from Wetherby. Faizel's assessment revealed processing difficulties we hadn't recognised. Twice-weekly sessions addressed this and developed examination technique. He adapted his approach as our son progressed. Secured places at Sussex House and The Hall—chose Sussex House where he's thriving.

Faizel has been working with our son for a year. His extensive experience as senior teacher and Headteacher proved invaluable from the outset, yet I remain particularly impressed with the thoroughness of his approach. He has addressed substantial subject content across varying complexity levels with patience and continuous encouragement, providing detailed progress feedback throughout. The impact on our son's confidence has been profound—his development in mathematics and creative writing has been remarkable.

Faizel's engagement with my son has been exceptional—developing his writing capabilities through an approach that proved both enjoyable and highly effective. Faizel is a remarkably kind, patient, and inspiring educator. He came highly recommended, and I am delighted to say he exceeded our expectations. Our son secured his place at Westminster Under School, and we are immensely grateful for Faizel's role in this achievement.

We relocated from Istanbul when our daughter was in Year 4, with limited familiarity with the British independent school system. Faizel guided us from school selection through to successful placement, identifying curriculum gaps whilst recognising her academic strengths. He supported her academic preparation, building her confidence within an unfamiliar educational context. Our daughter secured a place at Francis Holland School, Sloane Square, approaching the assessments with a composure we hadn’t imagined possible.
