Information About Maximillian:
Personal Description:
I am currently an undergraduate at Cambridge University entering my fourth year of natural sciences and taking courses in Theoretical and experimental physics. I have a broad interest in all the sciences and Maths.
Teaching Experience:
I am tutoring on a regular basis at present. During term time I tutor a nine year old maths to GCSE standard, a fifteen year old who I teach a mixture of all sciences and some maths, and a fourteen year old boy.. I have assisted in primary schools and have taught lessons at secondary level so have experience with young children. I often tutor friends at GCSE and A-level in the run up to exams.
Tutoring Approach:
I have gained immense pleasure from the tutorial system at Cambridge. Not only is it an enjoyable way to learn but the way I am taught has given me a very good understanding of the basic ideas behind a concept which are then built upon. My approach to tutoring is similar in that I hope to give the student the ability to step back from a problem and understand the theories behind it. This is particularly important for Maths and Physics but I find it is also very useful in aiding understanding in Chemistry and Biology. Equally, I am very flexible and often it is the case, especially with GCSE and A level sciences that it is specific methods which must be honed and understood.
I do not believe in simply telling a student what to do. Instead getting them to think for themselves, prompting them when necessary allows them to go away and follow similar lines of thought to solve different problems. It also teaches students to be more independent and not seek assistance for every problem they are faced with.
