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...
My approach to tuition is to encourage a deep understanding of the course content, instead of learning a list of facts or how to pass the exam. I do this by trying to explain how the concepts fit within previous knowledge, how it’s applied in the real world and why it’s important that we understand it. Every student learns differently,...
When teaching science and maths I stress the overlap and interconnectedness of the different disciplines. I find this helps abstract concepts to fall into perspective, makes everything less daunting when you realise that the same principles feature in so many different topics and ultimately stands the student in better stead when grappling with unfamiliar territory. My interest in the history...
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 feel like my relaxed approach to content which is explained with real life examples allows for anyone I am working with to feel confident and involved in the learning process. It is important to be able relate learning to a purpose or use, as a means of finding a relevance and being able to discover what it is that...
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 like to make each client’s experience unique and most importantly deliver a service that harmonises with the student’s way of working. By building a professional but personable relationship with the student, I can understand how he/she thinks and through this adapt my teaching style to best suit their way of working. Whether this is providing problem sheets to help...
