Reviews from others
“Sheridan is endlessly patient and although Sofia believes that she cannot do maths he is working on her confidence which in turn makes the maths seem easier. Thank you!”- Astrid
“Sheridan is extremely good at what he does. He knows how to explain the work and he gives exercises in between which were very helpful and assisted me in fully understanding what was expected of me in the exam. I went into my exams very confident because I knew the work and that was an awesome feeling considering I didn't have much time to prepare.”- Thandiwe
