Marco - Rugby tutor






Information About Marco:


Personal Description:

I am in my late twenties.

I studied separate degrees in Physics and Mechanical Engineering, but had always offered private tuition since I left school. In fact, I enjoyed teaching so much that I completed a Post-Grad Certificate in Education for Physics a few years ago, and am now a fully qualified secondary teacher working at a prestigious Public School.

As far as tutoring goes, however, I think what matters is that I am down-to-Earth, and communicate well. All the knowledge in the world is useless if you can't share it!

Having lived in South America for many years, I am also perfectly fluent in Spanish.
My passions include photography, film and astronomy.



Teaching Experience:

I am a fully qualified secondary school Physics teacher, teaching KS3, GCSE and A-level Physics.
I am therefore very much in touch with how GCSEs and A-levels work, and what is relevant.

The same is true for maths; although I don't teach maths at my school, I regularly tutor in maths, and am very aware of what is in the GCSE and AS/A2 syllabus (teaching the Edexcel modules, for example).

I have separate honours degrees in both physics and mechanical engineering, and can therefore tutor most first or second year undergrad subjects in these disciplines. In fact I never got any other jobs during college as I have been tutoring in a variety of subjects since I left school.

I also have experience giving Spanish conversation classes.



Tutoring Approach:

Practice, Practice, Practice!
I don't believe anything is impossible to understand; it is just a question of using the right examples to clarify, and taking enough time to practice thoroughly.
