A former home to poets Yeats and Plath, Primrose Hill has long been a fashionable area of London. It provides an unusual haven of green space within London’s built-up environs, and panoramic views across the city’s centre. London Zoo is a stone’s throw away, across the Regent’s Canal, where many a summer afternoon has been passed by children of all ages. Out tutors in Primrose Hill know the area well, and are available to come to you locally on any day of the year.
For students at primary schools nearby like St Pauls’s CE and St Christina’s school, Tavistock Tutors provides tuition in preparation for secondary school admissions and general primary skills.
“I aim to make learning fun whilst also ensuring fast and effective progress. I ensure that I get to know my students' ways of learning as soon as possible in order to tailor my tutoring style to their individual needs. I hope to be able to offer a way of learning different but utterly beneficial to the current exam syllabuses...
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.

With a...

I can tutor skills in research, sketching, rendering, idea generation, development through CAD/CAM and physical modelling, manufacture and evaluation while also the theoretical aspects of design. I am particularly specialised in aiding students to generate creative ideas as I offer very different ways...
As a student in university I struggled with the shift, from the demands of A Levels versus the demands of further education. In the final year of my undergraduate degree I made a lot of changes in how I approached my work. I realised that in further education, it is not enough to simply be smart and memorise the content....
Often, chemistry, physics or maths can be a student’s least favourite subject. As a tutor, it is my job to share my passion for these subjects with my students. I believe it’s important to be able to get the pupil interested in the subject, so that way they will get the most out of the lesson. Throughout their life, people can...

Utilising my university career, I adopt a detailed tuition plan to that lessons and external learning is conducted with a structured approach. This insures that the tutee gains a solid understanding of their subject whilst enriching their lives. My overall...
I prefer creative and activity based learning and problem solving. I believe in tailoring my approach to each individual personality, trying to generate an interest in the subject matter by making it relevant to that student and helping him or her unlock their potential and gain confidence that way....
My approach to tuition depends on your needs. I understand that some of you will be looking for tutoring to achieve a specific grade, and some of you will be looking for tutoring to support your overall understanding about a subject. Starting from our first session and throughout our sessions together, I will make sure that we build an engaging...
