Prrofessional Tutor and Classics Graduate / 11+ | 13+ | GCSE | English | Maths | Classics | Latin

We hired Kaspar for a year and a half from June 2019 - October 2020 to tutor iGCSE Maths for the higher 9-1 course. He was exceptionally professional, punctual and dedicated as a tutor. Kaspar's generalist background really helped him to connect with students and we couldn't have hoped for better. Wishing him all the best in the future.

Kaspar is a caring, devoted tutor who brings about results through tailoring his approach to students' needs. When my son started sessions, he was dealing with confidence and organisational problems which were stopping his progress in the subject. Through engaging with him and making lessons fun, Kaspar managed to rekindle my son's interest.

Our son was preparing to apply to a private school in the local area with a very competitive admissions process. Kaspar helped not only to develop my son's academic ability but also his confidence and interview skills. A great improvement all-round which led to him securing a place at the school in 2019. Lessons went online due to distance but this did not seem to affect progress at all - if anything it was easier to manage logistically. A great outcome overall.

I am writing this reference for Kaspar who helped with our daughter's english progression. He is always professional and generates a positive atmosphere with engaging learning. It would be our pleasure to recommend him as a teacher for anyone who is struggling with English or 11/13+ areas.

To whom it may concern

My name is Artemis Prassas and I am writing this recommendation letter for Mr Kaspar Bourke who is tutoring my daughter.

I can assure you that Kaspar has good work ethics and exemplary communication skills.
He is always polite and caring. He has been a positive influence and inspiring my daughter to do her best.
I appreciate his work.

Hence, we strongly recommend him as an excellent professional.

Kaspar helped our daughter with 11+ exams preparation. We thought communicating online would be difficult, but he is clear and still very informative, and we actually found online lessons with Kaspar very helpful during this lockdown. A true professional. He always makes sure our daughter gets the best out of the hour and he is very good teacher even online.

During the lockdown my son's english work was suffering because of the lack of school teaching. It was hard to find tuition that was affordable to us at the time.
Kaspar kindly volunteered services absolutely free of charge for us as he explained that he had an initiative to support financially disadvantaged students during COVID epidemec.

Our son was struggling with various areas in his biology and chemistry gcse papers. we looked to hire kasper becasue of strong communication skills and we felt that he would be the right tutor for our son. every penny was worth the time. kaspar was always on time and kept a diligent lesson plan for each lesson. out of several tutors we tried i would say he was the best by far.

Kasper has been teaching our daughter Latin for the past few months. He's an exceptional teacher who brings about a sense of confidence in our daughter, with his approach to teaching the language through practical examples.

My daughter had been stuggling with algebra and graphs. When kasper came over he made an instant impact boosting her understanding and confidence.
He was always polite and caring, always on time. Could not have paid for a better tutor.

Kaspar was great at teaching the 11+. My son improved massively, especially in his verbal and non-verbal reasoning. I appreciate his professional approach and his care to my son's progress in and out of school.

Kaspar is an excellent tutor.My son has been learning German with him for nearly a year now.Kaspar is very professional and knowledgeable tutor,He adapts his teaching style well to meet my son’s needs.His great expertise has really improved my son’s knowledge of German Language.It is my absolute pleasure to recommend Kaspar !

Kaspar was reffered to me by a friend and has been tutoring our son for his GCSE english exams. he is always on time, and makes sure our son gets the best out of the hour (he usually finds it hard to concentrate on his own)

Kasper taught my daughter latin for 2 years up to her final exams, and I have to say her results and confidence have improved massively. Punctual, polite and helpful. Good value

Kasper has taught my daughrer 11 plus now over the sunmer for the coming exams in september, and i honestly am amazed at the progress that has been made, especially in maths.would definitely recommend.

Kaspar has taught my son German for GCSE and I would like to say that he is thoroughly professional, punctual, respectful and extremely knowledgeable. After trying a few tutors with whom we were not completely happy, my son quickly settled with Kaspar and improved by leaps and bounds which was exceptional progress as my son's confidence in the language was poor.
Kaspar has a command over the subject and his feedback to the tutee and the parents was honest and important.
I would highly recommend Kaspar as a tutor as without him I am sure we couldn't have coped as well as we did.

Kasper is a diligent, understanding tutor who was very helpful for my son in the run up to his GCSEs. We could not have wished for better.

Kaspar started his degree in Classical Studies. He is enrolled in the modules: Intermediate Latin, Beginners Greek, Working with ancient texts and Introduction to Ancient History. While he has only been at King's for a couple of months, he seems to have settled in well.

I taught Kaspar Latin and Ancient History for two years in the sixth form. He was a dedicated and perceptive student with a real interest in the ancient world. His language and literary skills were good - he dealt well with the difficult Latin of Tacitus and Virgil and produced accurate, idiomatic translations. He displayed a good work ethic and drove himself to improve when he fell short of his own high standards. By the end of the sixth form he was an accomplished Latinist.
