Personal Description:
I am a fully qualified Health and Social Care teacher who loves teaching. I am currently taking a couple of years away from teaching full time to home educate one of my children so I now have the opportunity to tutor more. I have industry experience having worked in A and E, Maternity, acute care and elderly care wards. I have studied both Biological and Biomedical Sciences at Brighton University and also have level 4 in careers advice and guidance. I have 2 children, 2 cats a dog and a house rabbit.

Teaching Experience:
I first started working in a school setting as a cover teacher 8 years ago and then qualified a couple years after joining. I knew I had found the career for me when I had previous students coming back to visit and telling me all about University and the dream jobs they have been able to get into. My main aim is to help students find that spark of excitement and aspiration in their studies. I strongly believe that a students success is not only getting that grade at the end but finding that passion for the future.

Tutoring Approach:
I offer bespoke tutoring to meet individual needs of the learner. I will work very closely with the learner to see how best to assist them in reaching their learning goals. I am friendly with a great sense of humor whilst very professional and driven.

Personal Description:
I hold a PhD in Chemistry and am a published scientific author. I offer concierge-level tutoring for students who demand the very best results.

I have extensive experience across all major UK and international qualifications:

* IB Diploma

Teaching Experience:
Over fifteen years, I have guided students across KS3, KS4, GCSE, A-level and Further A-level and IB Diploma - many of whom have gone on to read Medicine, Veterinary Science, Engineering and other highly competitive degrees at leading universities, including Oxford and Cambridge.

Tutoring Approach:
I work exclusively online via Zoom, with a shared interactive whiteboard, structured homework, and direct email communication between sessions.

Each engagement begins with a diagnostic session. I assess the student's current level, identify the specific gaps in their understanding, and build a tailored programme from there. Every student receives a strategy designed around their syllabus and their individual goals.

Typical sessions combine targeted concept work and past-paper practice. Between lessons, homework is prepared and shared on the whiteboard; I follow up by email once it is ready. Progress is reviewed continuously, and the plan is adjusted accordingly.

My students are expected to invest effort between sessions and complete their homework. I work with a small, carefully selected cohort of students each term. Places are limited and not all enquiries are accepted. I hold a current PVG Scheme certificate and am fully vetted. For families who require it, I am happy to sign a non-disclosure agreement prior to any engagement. Enquiries are handled with complete confidentiality.
