Personal Description:
I live in West Cornwall with my young family, and currently work as a private tutor and academic mentor. Born in Brighton, it was there in 2009 I completed my teacher training and began a career as a science teacher.
Additionally, I hold an undergraduate degree in Genetics from the University of Liverpool, and a masters degree in Psychology from Abertay University, Scotland.
As well as my classroom teaching experience, I have worked as a laboratory researcher, science editor, and more recently as an independent advocate within the field of mental health.
Teaching Experience:
I obtained a PGCE in secondary science from the University of Brighton, gaining qualified teacher status in 2009. During training, I taught at two West Sussex secondary schools. Upon qualifying, I taught at a prestigious all-girls school in central Brighton, and then subsequently at Bellerbys International College in Brighton.
My classroom experience includes teaching ages 11-18 across all three sciences (Biology, Chemistry, and Physics) from GCSE to A-level.
I have 15 years of private tutoring experience, having tutored GCSE, AS- and A-level, and mature students. I have a very successful track record. I am very friendly and approachable, and highly dedicated to my students - giving a lot of time and effort to ensure they are achieving their full potential.
Tutoring Approach:
Within sessions, I provide solid structure and tailor my approach to their individual needs. I suggest work for completion outside of sessions and provide them with direction to develop their individual approach to learning and revision.
I am able to explain difficult concepts in an easily digested way, making learning enjoyable and confidence-boosting. I have a clear, patient manner, and an excellent grasp of my subject specialisms.

Personal Description:
I am currently studying for a Biological Sciences PhD. I have an MSc in Applied Marine Science and a first class honours BSc in Marine Biology.
I love my subject and want to share this with the next generation while helping them achieve the best that they can.
Teaching Experience:
I have experience in secondary level education in England, having completed the Student Associate Scheme at the end of my Bachelors Degree. In doing so I had experience working as a classroom assistant and running my own Biology lessons.
I have also worked as a demonstrator within the university.
Tutoring Approach:
I don't believe in giving the answers, it does not help anybody. My approach is to explore the question/problem/topic. If a question can be explored from a different angle then the answer is always reachable. Learning shouldn't be just memorising facts, but really understanding a topic. I love that moment when it just clicks!

Personal Description:
With over a decade of professional experience across education, healthcare, and scientific research, I bring a unique and richly layered skill set to students at all academic levels. I am a Qualified Teacher (QTS) and a recent PGCE graduate with a science specialism, currently teaching across Key Stages 3, 4, and 5. My extensive background includes roles as a Science Teacher, Science Technician, Trainee Biomedical Scientist (NHS), Pharmacovigilance Specialist, and Quality Assurance Specialist within clinical and regulatory healthcare environments.
I hold two Master's degrees MSc in Pharmaceutical Biotechnology and a Distinction-awarded MSc in Healthcare Leadership which underpin my rigorous academic approach and commitment to evidence-based teaching and mentoring. My professional and academic journey equips me to support students in a wide range of subjects, including GCSE and A-Level Sciences, healthcare and nursing coursework, leadership and management assignments, and dissertation projects requiring in-depth critical analysis and Harvard referencing.
I specialise in:
1) Homework and curriculum support across KS3-KS5 in Science (Chemistry, Biology, and Physics)
2) University-level coursework, including healthcare leadership, nursing, and care-related qualifications (Levels 3, 5, and 7)
3) Academic mentoring, including research proposals, literature reviews, leadership tasks, and full dissertation support
4)Personalised guidance on scientific writing, referencing, academic integrity, and critical thinking development
Above all, I strive to empower each learner to exceed their goals and grow in academic confidence, while fostering deep subject understanding through adaptive teaching tailored to individual needs. Whether you're preparing for exams, tackling university assignments, or pursuing professional development, I am here to help you succeed and thrive.
Teaching Experience:
With a strong foundation in both education and health sciences, I bring an integrative and practice-informed approach to teaching and tutoring. As a Qualified Teacher (QTS) with a completed PGCE in Secondary Science (Chemistry Specialism), I have taught across multiple London-based schools, including structured placements and real classroom instruction at both Key Stage 3 and 4 levels. I am well-versed in delivering AQA, OCR, and Edexcel curricula, with hands-on experience planning and providing full schemes of learning, assessing student progress, and managing classroom dynamics effectively.
Over the years, I have worked in six different secondary schools across London, serving in capacities including science teacher, science technician, and teaching assistant. I regularly stepped up to deliver complete lessons during teacher absences and collaborated with departments to design, demonstrate, and adapt practical experiments that align with national curriculum requirements. My classes are interactive, inclusive, and geared towards deep understanding, utilising a range of strategies that include visual, auditory, and kinaesthetic learning.
Alongside my educational expertise, I possess a distinguished career in healthcare and biomedical science, having worked across four NHS Trusts (Chelsea and Westminster, Royal Free London, Epsom & St Helier, and Maidstone & Tunbridge Wells). As a trainee biomedical scientist in histopathology, I've analysed biological specimens and explored disease pathways in real clinical settings, translating these insights into powerful learning tools for students interested in science, nursing, or medicine.
This dual exposure to real-world healthcare and frontline teaching significantly enriches my tutoring. I specialise in bridging classroom science with its real-life applications, making topics more relevant, engaging, and impactful. My support extends from primary and secondary education to university-level students, including those studying nursing, healthcare leadership, and biomedical sciences.
Academic Contributions and Specialist Coursework:
• Leadership in Healthcare: Developed reflective essays and action plans grounded in Kotter's and Goleman's theories to explore personal leadership growth.
• Innovation & Change: Created quality improvement project proposals using PDSA and other evaluation models.
• Patient Safety & Quality: Delivered critical analyses of healthcare incidents, policy frameworks, and safety protocols using real case studies.
• Policy & Global Health: Presented advanced policy analysis via a 10-minute narrated presentation examining the evolution of UK health policy.
• Capstone Project: Delivered a full poster and narrative evaluating the integration of AI, predictive analytics, and psychosocial support in dementia care demonstrating academic rigour and healthcare foresight.
My personable approach, deep subject expertise, and commitment to adapting instruction to every learner's needs make me a trusted educational partner for students across London and beyond.
Tutoring Approach:
Tutoring Approach (Updated Version)
My tutoring approach is grounded in academic precision, real-world relevance, and a deep commitment to inclusive, adaptive learning. With a Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and a PGCE in Secondary Science, I integrate my classroom teaching experience with a strong scientific foundation in biomedical science and healthcare leadership. I tailor each session to support diverse learning styles visual, auditory, kinaesthetic, and reading/writing ensuring students of all abilities can access, understand, and retain complex scientific concepts.
To deepen engagement, I design sessions using:
• Scenario-based learning
• Annotated diagrams and mind maps
• Real-life clinical examples
• Modelled answers and worked examples
• Interactive PowerPoints and digital whiteboards
This multi-modal teaching strategy enhances comprehension, exam readiness, and critical thinking across all key stages and university levels.
Having worked as a trainee biomedical scientist across several NHS Trusts and at LGC (Local Government Chemist) Europe's leading scientific laboratory I bring advanced scientific expertise into every lesson. From analysing biological specimens for disease pathology to detecting complex substances like cocaine and heroin, I translate these experiences into tangible, relatable lessons that inspire students and build curiosity.
Technology plays a central role in my sessions. I use:
• Laptops and tablets for simulations and assessments
• Short videos and animations to visualise processes
• Live demonstrations and experiments (where applicable)
• Curated lecture notes and handouts for revision and consolidation
Each student receives bespoke academic resources before and after sessions, reinforcing learning continuity and promoting independent study habits.
Furthermore, I regularly collaborate with science departments to plan and facilitate practical experiments that align closely with national curriculum specifications (AQA, OCR, Edexcel). This ensures students not only master theoretical knowledge but are fully prepared to apply it in practical settings, assessments, and future careers-whether in science, medicine, or health.
Ultimately, my goal is to transform each tutoring experience into a confident, high impact learning journey, equipping students with the academic tools, mindset, and motivation to excel beyond expectations.

Teaching Experience:
Teaching Experience:
I have taught science in a secondary school as a science teacher. At present I tutor primary and secondary school students, with focus on GCSE exam preparations. I have 10 years of experience of tutoring within the UK.
Tutoring Approach:
Good communication and interaction is the key to understanding and learning. I make sure that my students understand the topic before proceeding to the next one. I provide the students with the right materials for studying which includes exam style questions.
For students preparing for their GCSEs, we work hard on learning how to answer exam questions. Techniques and skills on how to ace the questions are taught which are key to getting more marks in their GCSEs.
I am willing to travel to you but travel costs would need to be covered (£5 per trip)
If you wish to book a group session for two or more students/multiple subjects then please contact to discuss rates.

Teaching Experience:
Student science tutor for 2 years whilst at school
Summer Camp Leader for 3 years running, experience with international children.
Leader at Cubs, Brownies, Beavers and Rainbows
Work experience at an Adult Learning Centre
Tutoring Approach:
It has been my experience, both as a tutor and as a student, that the best way to engage with learning is to understand your working style. I personally have found certain aspects of school quite challenging but by finding the methods that most suited my needs, I was able to maximize my learning potential.
My tutoring style emphasizes collaboration and positive reinforcement in order to produce a friendly learning environment.
From my charity work abroad in Ghana to my role as Deputy Head Girl at my secondary school, I have gained the interpersonal skills necessary to develop productive and compassionate relationships with pupils. Students will find themselves excited for their lessons and eager to achieve new standards of excellence.

Personal Description:
I am a 34 year old Post doctoral researcher in the field of endocrinology.
My undergraduate degree (2010) was in Biology from Imperial College, London, where I continued to study to Masters level (2011) in Reproductive and Developmental Biology. between 2013-2016 I completed my PhD in reproductive endocrinology. therefore my knowledge of biology spans multiple subject areas.
I have A-levels in Biology, Physics, Maths and History and a keen interest in all of these subjects.
Having completed my PhD and fulfilled 3 post-doctoral research positions, I feel I have gained experience in the skills required at all levels of education to progress and succeed and would really like to help others to realise their academic talents and to succeed in their education.
Teaching Experience:
I am currently training for my postgraduate certificate of academic practice, for lecturing and small group teaching at undergraduate level.
I have been tutoring privately for the past 6 years and have successfully guided GCSE and A-Level students to achieve their goals, gaining further jobs through recommendation.
Throughout my career, I have been responsible for overseeing and training undergraduate students in the laboratory and ensuring they have a key understanding of protocols, the biology behind them and how to use this knowledge to work out problems for themselves. This also involves mathematics skills, such as fractions, dilutions and molar concentrations, as well as helping them with any biology questions they may have outside of the lab. I provide feedback on presentation skills and on key learning skills required at degree level.
I have also had experience teaching students at A-level stage, in a two part workshop surrounding the biology of genetics. A key component of this is helping them to understand a totally new subject and to answer any questions they have surrounding university applications, study skills and personal statements.
I like to think this broad range of experience has taught me to interact with students of various ages and to recognise learning approaches that work best for different individuals.
Tutoring Approach:
The most important thing to consider is a student's personal requirements and to find a learning style that works for them. People learn in different ways so to teach in a style that maintains interest and works for the individual student is really important to me.
a goal based approach is important in my eyes. to understand what need to be learnt, by when and to work through a strategic plan to achieve the best results for the student.

Personal Description:
I am an experienced tutor specialising in maths, science and entrance exam tuition. For over 10 years I have helped my students achieve their goals. Whether it's pushing for the top grades for your university course or getting that all important GCSE pass to access your dream college course, I will equip you with the knowledge and techniques you need to succeed.
I know what it takes to get the top grades, having achieved a clean sweep of A*s at GCSE myself. I continued my education journey studying Maths, Biology and Chemistry A level at The Blue Coat School Liverpool, before graduating from the University of York with a BSc (Hons) Chemistry.
Fast forwarding to today, I am a leader in education policy with a deep and broad understanding of the UK education system. But just as important as my "day job", I am fortunate to still do what I love - helping students achieve their goals through my one to one and group tuition sessions.
Teaching Experience:
I began tutoring over 10 years ago, initially focussing on 11+ entrance exam tuition, but later diversifying to cover GCSE maths and science, and then A level Maths, Biology and Chemistry Tuition.
I have helped many primary school students pass entrance exams to get into the top grammar and private schools in the country, and in many cases continued to support their Maths and English development to help them get ready for secondary school.
For secondary school students, I have provided support to students across each of the key stages, each with different goals. In the earlier years, I have coached my students across maths and science to make sure they are on top of the course content. The difference made by offering a recap to content covered in school is really quite astounding, with my younger students excelling in end of topic tests and avoiding the dreaded homework struggles for that topic they just didn't quite grasp the first time.
At GCSE, I have supported my students both in getting across the pass line, and pushing students sitting on a Grade 7 in class to a Grade 9 come GCSE results day. In all cases, I am experienced in identifying areas of weakness, making sure my students have the fundamentals to understand the topic, before drilling exam questions and considering from all different angles.
Nothing is more rewarding than coaching my A level students to get the grades for the course of their dreams. I have been fortunate enough to help many students on their journey, with former students reaching the grades they need to study courses including medicine, veterinary science, biology, chemistry and biochemistry.
Tutoring Approach:
It's all about the foundations. When students start lessons with me, I find even the brightest students almost always have gaps in basic knowledge. Often these are not picked up at school, masked by exam technique or being good at past papers. However, when the real exam comes round, only a mastery of the foundations of each topic will allow students to access the highest-grade questions.
In our first lesson together, we will speak through your goals - is it getting into a grammar school? Passing your GCSE Maths? Getting an A in Chemistry A level? Whatever the goal, I will then talk you through what is needed to get there. And to be upfront, that will mean work outside lessons as well which I will help guide you through. We will then speak through your progress so far - recent test scores, topics you're struggling with, revision habits - and I will use this to build up your bespoke programme for our lessons.
In our lessons I will then focus on mending the foundations of each topic. This is achieved through a combination of explanations, focussed practice and past exam questions. Before we move on to a new topic, my students should be able to explain the concept back to me in detail, ensuring all the needed content is covered.
When explaining a topic, I will ask LOTS of questions to make sure learning is active throughout. For example:
A proton has a positive charge, neutron neutral charge, and electron negative charge. Now tell me what charge a proton has.
This type of questioning is critical and is really the difference between learning in lessons at school compared to one to one or small group tuition. Making sure my students have a comprehensive understanding of each topic is critical to success.

Personal Description:
I love skiing, horse riding, walking with my dog. dancing Salsa, Ceroc, Bachata and Kizomba. I also enjoy learning a new language
Teaching Experience:
I hold Certifcate in Education. I have been teaching English as a Second Language since May 2007. The students would stay at my house for a week or up to eight weeks. I have also taught Maths, Biology, Science, History, Geography and Physics to GCSE level.
I believe that every child has the ability to learn given the right tuition and guidance. Patience maybe required in order to explain a point in several different ways for the student to understand it.
I enjoy teaching English as it is the language of the world, the internet and the language that is spoken by the most number of countries. I find the enjoyment comes when some who can't speak or pronounce English well at first become confident and fluent over time.
I like to make my lessons fun and excited, as I believe that a lesson that is boring will not be remembered by the students.
I have learnt over the course of my teaching that students are individuals and cannot be taught the same. What works for one student will not necessarily work for another. Every course can and should be adjusted to suit the different student.
My classes would be packed full of fun with the intention of energizing everyone in it. I like my students to participate fully in the class, so that they are able to get the most out of their time with me. They should not realize the time because they are enjoying the interaction with me and the other students, if not a one to one scenario.

Personal Description:
A second year medic at the University of Edinburgh. I graduated with 44/45 in the IB.
I did not get where I am today by myself. I had help - friends, family, and teachers. I know how much impact a teacher can have, and I just want to help where I can.
Prior to Uni, I spent 2 years in the Army developing ,training and leading frontline soldiers. I have seen people from all walks of life and am committed to developing and teaching my students as well.
Teaching Experience:
Prior to Uni, I tutored final year IB students for a year. Prior to that, I did not have any formal teaching assignments, only teaching friends or some of my soldiers when I was serving. Despite that, I have been coaching for most of my life. Since I was 15 I have been mentoring my juniors in my extra curriculars at school, so I am well versed when it comes to different methods of mentoring.
Tutoring Approach:
I enjoy getting to know my students beyond their academic needs; building a connection and seeing that they are supported in any way that I can.
I also believe in understanding rather than memorizing, so I teach my students skills that will help them approach problems logically instead of just memorizing the textbook.
I am flexible and can tailor lesson times specific to the student.

Personal Description:
I'm a fully qualified science teacher and the current Head of Biology at a large secondary school. With over 20 years of experience in education, I specialise in helping GCSE students succeed in Biology by building both subject knowledge and exam confidence. I also work as an examiner for AQA GCSE Biology, so I know exactly what examiners are looking for and how to help students maximise their marks.
Teaching Experience:
I've taught Biology across Key Stage 3 and 4, with a particular focus on the AQA GCSE specification. As Head of Biology, I lead curriculum planning, exam preparation, and targeted intervention strategies to support student progress. I also mentor early career teachers and trainee teachers, supporting them to deliver effective and engaging lessons. My work as an AQA examiner gives me valuable insight into how exam questions are marked and how students can approach them with confidence.
Tutoring Approach:
My tutoring sessions are calm, focused, and tailored to each student's needs. I focus on building a secure understanding of key topics, strengthening exam technique, and improving confidence. I use a combination of clear explanations, structured practice, and real exam-style questions. As an experienced teacher and examiner, I can help students refine their answers to meet the mark scheme and feel well prepared for their exams.
