University is incredibly challenging, let alone balancing your extra-curricular and social commitments with your studies.
Many of our undergraduate tutors graduated with first-rate physics degrees from Oxbridge, so they’re ideally placed to help you manage your time, while assisting you with your course content, assignments, and revision. The step from A-level to undergraduate physics is steep, and we understand that this can make you feel overwhelmed.
Tavistock Tutors are hand-picked by our directors for their extensive knowledge, experience, and passion for helping you achieve your goals.
Securing private tuition on a student budget is inaccessible to many students, so we’ve made our prices as competitive as possible to ensure that you can get the right help, without breaking the bank.
Across all of the different subjects I teach, I always notice the same thing: the main difficulty that learners encounter is getting overwhelmed by what they're trying to learn. It could be that there seems to be simply too much material to cover; it could be that the concepts seem too difficult; it could be that the whole thing causes...
Private tuition make it possible to teach the student one-on-one, which is rare in a school setting, and valuable because no two students are the same. I take an individualised approach and tailor my teaching style depending on the needs and priorities of each student. In some cases, the main aim of private tuition is a top exam grade, and...
I believe that the key to success in physics and mathematics is to develop a firm understanding of the fundamental concepts. Far too often students fall into the trap of “rote learning” the material or “learning to the exam” – memorising the answers to popular questions. This approach is very dangerous as it does not develop an understanding of the...
I believe that tutoring should be creative, rewarding and fun. I have been tutoring at all levels for many years now, and I am passionate about sharing my enthusiasm for the subjects I teach. Every student is an individual. Tutoring is about working to each person's learning style, and find out how to get the best of them, and to help...
I aim to give students confidence in themselves to approach new problems in a positive way, based on their own knowledge and understanding of the topics. With a solid grounding in the fundamentals, harder problems and new material can then be tackled in a logical way. I like to show students ways in which their subjects are used in real...
“I am keen to discover each student’s creative potential: whether this is using a new art material or reflecting a fresh way to approach a mathematical problem, and open and exploratory manner to tuition, guided by a firm hand, is key to my approach.”...
I believe that tutor – student interactions should be more open, transparent and interactive. I consider myself to be a learner and involve with the student while teaching the subjects. Each student has a different style of absorbing things and it is very critical to know/understand that style, which makes the learning more fun and productive. My motto - If someone...
Mentoring one-on-one gives the opportunity to learn at the student’s optimal pace. I strongly believe that success at school and beyond is based on strategy, time management, and self-confidence. My passion, diligence and creative skill-set drive my students to succeed....
In my tutor sessions the interaction of the student is extremely important. I aim to create a relaxed environment where students can ask questions and attempt answers without fear of embarrassment. During sessions I ask students questions to test depth of understanding and set written problems to apply knowledge. Since everyone learns differently I tailor my sessions to meet each...
