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 […]

I’m a diligent, methodical and patient tutor. I understand each student’s individual requirements and help them achieve a higher grade by explaining complex concepts lucidly and sharing various exam-taking techniques.

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.

Tutoring is all about relationships and getting to know my students. I will quickly unpick my students’ areas of weaknesses and work on these topics in fun and engaging ways to make sure progress is made. I love to use mini-whiteboards, props, videos, flash cards and lots of other resources to ensure that students understand […]

As someone who struggled at school, I understand first hand where some of these struggles may come from. Therefore, I prefer to take the non-authoritarian approach to my tutoring and like to be seen as more of a support system and friend. I am always striving to find new ways of helping students overcome any […]

Everybody can do Maths!! Many students are intimidated by the subject, so I hope to allay their fears by being a friendly and approachable face. I provide a clear, step-by-step explanation of how to solve the problem at hand, followed by lots of guided examples to help build their confidence. I carefully plan both each […]

I treat each student’s needs individually and set goals at the beginning, regularly reviewing them with the student. I see education comprising of fundamentally two things: knowledge and skills. Where knowledge needs to be gained, I emphasise the key learning points and review exam-type questions early on with the student. Where skills need to be […]

My style of tutoring is very simple. For each lesson, I set specific goals for my students. We work together interactively on these goals via discussions,examples, exercises and sometimes videos. Practice has proven to be the most effective way of developing the muscle memory of my students. Out of the goals they are not able […]

It is my firm belief that a teaching relationship is a partnership between tutor and student. If either end of the partnership is disengaged, it is futile to expect meaningful progress. My aim with any student is to quickly establish a working relationship, understand what they want to achieve from the process, and set reasonable […]

Out of all of my years of tutoring students, there’s one thing I can say for sure – no two students are the same. Within the first few sessions with my pupil, I aim to quickly assess skill and confidence levels and individual learning styles and to plan future lessons accordingly. Above all, I will […]
