I would like to thank you
for all your help with teaching my daughter Saachi, Mr. Porter. I will always
recommend your tuition to my friends. Kind regards Manisha
"I would
like to thank you for teaching her. She has improved in her Maths, and her Maths
teacher is very pleased with her."
"Thanks a lot for your help and guidance. Its because of you, Anahita, Jeremy,
Jervais, Divya and all your other lovely tutors that she is doing well."
"My children really enjoy coming here" - David
"Hi Bill,
just thought you might to know that Arran is in his last semester studying for a
Bachelor Of Engineering Technology at Unitec. He has been getting great grades
(A's) and has landed himself a great job at a civil engineering company at years
end. Frances and I would like to thank you for the expert training and tuition
to Arran which we believe was material in Arran's success."
"It has been many years since I had tackled any maths other than that required
for everyday living. I approached Bill Porter three weeks
before a Level 1 University Statistics paper. As I had
struggled significantly with this paper, I told Bill that my aim was to obtain a
C grade required to pass the paper. Bill utilised different
approaches to teach concepts when I had difficulty grasping them.
We also worked through old exam papers and ascertained the likely content
of what would be in my exam.
"Three weeks later, when I entered the exam room, I felt that I had a good chance
of achieving the C grade I desired. Confirmation of my
results for the statistics paper produced a B grade. I was
extremely relieved and excited to have achieved this grade and acknowledge that
without Bill's tuition, passing this paper would not have been possible."
"Bill’s patience, knowledge and professionalism during my tuition were exemplary.
I cannot thank Bill enough for helping me to achieve my goal and would
highly recommend him to anyone requiring maths tuition at any level."

"My daughter did very
well in her end of year exams and I think she went into the exams feeling a lot
more confident and less stressed,
so the lessons were definitely money well spent." ( Name withheld at
student's request)
"My daughter really
enjoyed her first session last week and was really impressed as she grasped a concept
regarding the graphs which she hadn't managed to before. I think you hit the
nail on the head with her shortcomings regarding decimals, she does seem to have
a bit of a gap there."
