Hey there! I'm Manfred, the founder and CEO of LessonWise. As a Mechanical Engineering and Music enthusiast, I found my true calling as a tutor while studying music in the UK. I dived into subjects like Maths, Physics, and Music, sharing my knowledge with eager learners. It didn't take long for my passion to take over, and I made the bold decision to embrace tutoring as my full-time pursuit. I poured my heart into it, dedicating over 35 hours each week to helping students thrive. What truly drove me was witnessing the incredible transformations that occurred when students unlocked their true potential. Witnessing their growth in confidence, their improved grades, and their newfound self-sufficiency filled me with immense joy. I felt compelled to reach even more students and extend the benefits of private tutoring to as many as possible. That's when I realised the power of online group lessons. While I loved the one-on-one approach, I knew that reaching a broader audience was crucial to make a lasting impact. Struggling to find a platform that met my vision, I took matters into my own hands and founded LessonWise. LessonWise is a vibrant online platform that brings together passionate tutors and students from all walks of life. Our mission is to provide affordable access to private tuition in any subject, empowering students to unlock their full potential. We're also here to support exceptional tutors in growing their businesses, ensuring they can touch the lives of more students with their expertise. I'm humbled to be part of this incredible journey, and I can't wait to see the incredible achievements our students will accomplish. Together, let's fulfil our mission of democratising access to private tuition and create a world where education knows no boundaries!

I am a mechanical engineer with extensive experience (3000+ hours of tuition) as a tutor since 2014. My tutoring experience has ranged all the way from last-minute one-off exam preparation sessions to several months' tuition agreements on a vast variety of subjects. In 2019 I completed a six-month private tuition contract overseas where I worked as a private A level Maths and Physics tutor for a family, preparing their son for his A levels this year. I worked for this family since January 2019, carrying out tutoring sessions every day including weekends, working on past papers, revising the syllabus in-depth, working with different literature I have helped prepare students for IB Maths SL exams both online and face-to-face and I have helped prepare a student for his MAT exam. Moreover, I have successfully prepared various of my students for their Maths IGCSE/GCSEs (both higher and foundation tiers) and I have predominantly worked with exam board Edexcel; however, I have also worked with AQA and Cambridge boards among others. Moreover, I have successfully prepared various of my students for their 13+ and 11+ common entrance exams including St. Pauls, Sevenoaks and Godolphin & Latymer and I have just solidified a tuition agreement with a family based in the UK to tutor and support both their children for the whole of the next academic year, as they start 13+ level education at Eaton Square Upper School. Furthermore, I have consistently worked as an online tutor as well over the past three years. Providing tuition in A-level Maths and Physics, A-Level statistics and Mechanics, IB Maths SL, GCSE Physics and Maths and more. Moreover, some of my online tutoring experiences include preparing an engineering student for his Fluid and Solid Mechanics module exam this summer, providing online A level Maths tuition for a student who was aiming to get a confidence boost over the Easter break aiming to achieve a better preparation for the A level exams this year. During my tutoring sessions, I focus on solving past papers, revising the syllabus in-depth, working with different literature and books and developing stronger exam sitting techniques. Through a patient, versatile and kind yet firm approach, I help my students develop their true potential, build their overall confidence and achieve their goals. This is the list of subjects I have managed to specialize in: 11+ Maths: ISEB and public school entrance exams 13+ Maths & Science: ISEB and public school entrance exams (I)GCSE Maths: AQA, CIE, Edexcel, OCR and WJEC. (I)GCSE Physics: AQA, CIE, Edexcel, OCR and WJEC A-level Maths: AQA, CIE, Edexcel, OCR and WJEC A-level Physics: AQA, CIE, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC and Pre-U A-level Maths Further Maths: Edexcel, OCR -Mechanical Engineering topics: Fluid Mechanics, Solid Mechanics

Hi it’s been a while I just thought I would let you know I did very well I’m very happy and I got a 7 IN MATHS Which I am over the moon about I just wanted to say thank you so much you are the best tutor and I definitely would never be able to have gotten that if you hadn’t have been so great!

I took Stella on as a GCSE Maths student in September 2019. She was dyslexic and up until the tuition started she had struggled prominently to cope with the workload from school and wasn't able to complete any Maths exams she would sit at school. She would constantly speak quite negatively of herself and her Maths skills, and she had completely given up on any hopes of improving or getting slightly better at it. She was predicted a 4. The first step for me was to drastically reframe her image of herself and her negative self-talk. I started reinforcing the idea that taking a bit more time to figure out Maths questions didn't mean she was unable to do it. Not remembering any aspect of the syllabus didn't mean you are 'dumb', it probably meant you hadn't been taught the syllabus with enough care or you hadn't spent sufficient time revising. Similarly, needing to read a question several times to understand it did not mean she didn't know the syllabus; and rather than it being a negative aspect it could be a positive advantage as it meant she would not miss any details and she would end up understanding the question much better. Through a patient, kind yer firm approach, we covered the entire GCSE syllabus topic by topic over 6 months. By constantly reminding her that it was indeed possible to improve at Maths (even if she was convinced she wasn't capable), and by continuously helping her believe in herself, Stella reached a level of motivation she had never experienced before. Further, I made sure to establish a rigorous, extensive and regular revision regime so that she could effectively internalise the syllabus. Stella scored a 7 in her Maths GCSEs
