    Just wanted to let you know that I got 90% for my NBT MAT test. Thank you so much for the great math prep classes! It made a huge difference

    Honestly the best way to go over such a large amount of content in a small amount of time. I don’t know how I would have done it without Seventh Star. The lessons were extremely beneficial!

    I recommend Seventh Star with the utmost boldness. The content of the classes and presentation is interactive and the students find it very interesting and instructive. New concepts are excellently presented and explained.

    Best math and science exam prep and tutor service in Pretoria if not the whole of SA

    My daughter, Amy has attended Seventh Star for over 3 years. The value she has gained is immeasurable. I believe the recipe is Mr Mitton’s attentive learning style, his commitment to his learners and that he shows up and expects them to show up. Thank you for believing in Amy, I am sure she will do us all proud for many years to come.

    Thanks to Seventh Star’s exceptional tuition, my academic journey underwent a transformative ascent during my grade 11 year. Starting with an 89% overall average, I soared to new heights, culminating in a remarkable 93% overall average. My proficiency in mathematics reached an extraordinary 99%, while in physical sciences I achieved 95% by the end of the year. These outstanding results were pivotal, opening the doors to acceptance at esteemed institutions such as Tuks, Wits, and UCT for their medical programs. Without a doubt, I owe my success to the unparalleled guidance provided by Mr. Mitton and the dedicated teaching team at Seventh Star.

    I matriculated at Somerset College last year with 7 distinctions hoping to get accepted into Medicine. Unfortunately I was rejected and decided to try flip to Medicine through the TUKS midyear transfer. Over the last six months I put everything I had into working towards this goal and with the help of Seventh Star I was able to successfully flip to MBChB midyear. This was a mental and emotional rollercoaster but it was worth every minute of it as I am now able to live out my dream of becoming a doctor and studying everything I love and find so much passion in. I am extremely grateful for this opportunity and for the help I received from Mr Mitton and his team.

    I am Ilham Ismail and I matriculated at Crawford International Pretoria in 2022, I achieved 8 distinctions in matric, which was made made possible due to the help of Mr Mitton as well. The last 6 months of my journey to transfer from bsc to medicine were by no means easy. There were a lot of ups and downs and moments of feeling as if I wanted to give up, however,I persevered due to the motivation of my family, friends and Mr Mitton. Seventh star was a major help in helping me achieve my dream to study medicine, which is something I am extremely thankful for. Medicine is a career which excites me as I want to find alternative methods to help individuals who are suffering and I wish to uplift the marginalised sectors of society. I am extremely grateful to have been presented with the opportunity to pursue this dream of mine and I hope to not let it be wasted.
