Personal Description:
Professional tutor (and mum of three) with 20+ years experience, additional needs friendly. 1-2-1, pairs and groups available.
I bring a wealth of knowledge and dedication to my teaching. My background also includes extensive experience in community learning and youth work, which has enriched my approach to education.
I specialise in teaching a wide range of subjects, including math, English and the sciences, catering to all age groups. My diverse skill set and passion for teaching ensure that each student receives personalized and effective guidance.
If you have any questions or would like to learn more about my tutoring services, please feel free to get in touch!
Teaching Experience:
Professional tutor with 20+ years experience - St Andrews Graduate specialising in maths, the sciences, and English, with extensive experience in supporting students with additional needs.
In addition I am experienced in tutoring both one-to-one and to large and small groups. I have also supported adults to improve their literacy and numeracy and have worked with children and young people in classroom settings and youth and holiday clubs.
Tutoring Approach:
My tutoring centers entirely on the student's needs, with learning sessions tailored to their specific requirements. I offer intensive tutoring sessions for several days or weeks leading up to exams, focusing on any problem areas. Additionally, I provide long-term tuition to help students gain a comprehensive understanding of their subjects.
I have a proven track record of successfully assisting students in catching up on missed work due to illness or other reasons, and in helping struggling students significantly improve their grades.
I treat all my students with the same care and respect that I would want for my own children. One of my key skills is putting students at ease, creating a comfortable learning environment where they can thrive. I strongly believe that building and maintaining a positive relationship between learner and teacher is crucial to effective learning.
I am an excellent motivator with a deep understanding of how people learn and respond to different teaching methods.

Personal Description:
I have a degree in Physics from the University of Nottingham and have taught Science in schools for over 8 years. I have a wide variety of teaching experience, from teaching English as a foreign language to a small group of 6 year olds, to teaching A level Physics in college. I love teaching and especially enjoy seeing students progress, become more confident and gain a real interest and love of the subject.
Teaching Experience:
I have now been tutoring for over 3 years, helping many students to gain the grades they require in their GCSE and A level exams for Science and Maths.
Previously, I spent 7 years living in Thailand where I taught both England (as a foreign language) and Science in an International Program at one of the top government schools. I also taught English, Maths and Science as a tutor, both on a one-to-one basis and to small groups.
I gained a PGCE in Secondary Science from Manchester Metropolitan University in 2009 and worked as a supply teacher in a number of secondary schools in the Cheshire area before becoming a full time tutor.
Tutoring Approach:
I like to encourage a love of the subject and take great joy in seeing students progress and become successful. I try to be friendly and supportive whilst also striving for excellent results. I try to make sessions interesting and informative by personalising the work to centre around the interests and needs of the individual student and by making use of ICT resources.

Personal Description:
Super-tutor with a 1st Class Masters from Cambridge University and over 14 years of experience.
I have tutored internationally for high-profile and UHNW families, but also work online with students on a weekly basis. My style is fun and engaging, with a focus on confidence-building as well as achieving academic results.
Teaching Experience:
- 1st Class B.A. (Hons) in Education Studies with English and Drama from the University of Cambridge, 4 As at A-level (English, Biology, Geography and Theatre Studies) and 11 A*s at GCSE.
- Over 14 years (4000+ hours) experience as a Private Tutor.
- Have tutored around the world, travelling with families and living with them domestically.
- Extensive experience with students suffering from dyslexia, petit mal, ADHD and anxiety.
- 100% success rate in improving GCSE and A-level students' performance by a minimum of 2 grades or to the top possible grade.
- Successfully helped students get into schools including Eton College, Harrow, Westminster, Kings (Wimbledon), Sevenoaks, Winchester, St Paul's Girls, City of London, Godolphin & Latimer, Francis Holland School, Harrodian, Sussex House and Putney High School, and universities including Cambridge, Bristol, Edinburgh and Georgetown, US.
Tutoring Approach:
I am the tutor who is also the friend, always working to ensure the child learns to love the subject and want improvement for themselves, not because I demand it of them. As a result of my time, I want the child to develop positively as a person as well as within the subject we are working on.
Firstly, I will always aim to find the areas the child is having the most difficulty with and break it down to its simplest form to help them understand. Once a child has understood the basic principle of what we are learning, I aim to push them as far as I can with their learning - my memory of the best teacher's I had at school were the teacher's who pushed me even further than I needed to go, and who gave me more knowledge and information than I needed to know. I then found that I entered my exams relaxed and confident, knowing that I had excess knowledge. Rather than learning just to answer set questions in an exam, I felt I truly understood those subjects.
TESTIMONIALS:
"Thank you for working so hard with Annabel. She has improved so much and genuinely enjoys all her sessions with you, which is a huge achievement for time spent doing maths and english in my view!"
Mother of Annabel (11+ Preparation)
"Lucy has been the best teacher ever and has taught me so much. If I pass any exams, it will be because of her awesome advice!"
Hana (11+ Preparation)
"I would like to thank Lucy for giving Julian such a thorough preparation so that he had confidence to deal with the tasks. His brilliant results are largely thanks to her help."
Mother of Julian (English Lit GCSE)
"Cecilia is deeply dyslexic and Lucy was able to take her from a modest level of writing to an A in English Literature. She was absolutely amazing, the best tutor my daughter ever had. Her ability to organise and simplify the work were crucial in achieving this result. But more importantly she was able to give Cecilia the self confidence she was lacking."
Mother of Cecilia (English Lit A-level)
"It was fantastic having Lucy here with us and she slotted into everything with such ease. She was a delight to have around."
Father of Etta and Artie (Year 2 homeschooling, domestic)

Personal Description:
A highly effective educator; experienced, well organised, motivated, enthusiastic, with good sense of humour.
I establish rapport with my students. In my long career in teaching, I have learned how to make the most complex concepts in science 'digestible'. My motto is: 'Excellence in Education'.
I am a member of Pi Lambda Theta (International Honour Society in Education).
Teaching Experience:
I am a qualified Teacher/Lecturer, and have taught for over thirty years in Secondary, and Further/Higher Education in the US, the EU, and the UK. In addition to teaching students, I have trained teachers, as well.
I am very familiar with the AQA, Edexcel, OCR, and the International Baccalaureate specifications.
Tutoring Approach:
While my Bachelor's Degree is in Biomedical Science, my Master's Degree is in Education with emphasis in Curriculum and Instruction, which means I have trained in designing and delivering effective lesson plans, as well as a complete curriculum. I design my instruction taking into account the student's learning needs. The 'one size fits all' approach to teaching is responsible for the failure of many students. Every student can learn and can do well in the right learning environment, and if there are no gaps in what is prerequisite knowledge for taking a certain course.
Knowledge builds on pre-existing knowledge. I make certain that my students really understand and appreciate that. I diagnose gaps in content knowledge and fill them, providing a solid foundation for my students to build on.
Study skills and exam technique, which figure prominently in my teaching, combined with a well-rounded, in-depth content knowledge, provide the key to success.
At the end of the course, my students not only do they have what they need to tackle the Biology, Chemistry, or Psychology exam, but also a wealth of learning skills which they can apply to other subjects as well, and which they will find essential in all their future academic studies.
Educational technology supplements my instruction. The content in every session is presented on PowerPoint with quality images. I clarify every point and make certain my student has grasped the present concept before I proceed with the next. Where appropriate, the PPT presentation is followed by a brief video which makes the content come alive. My PowerPoint presentations, as well as my notes on PDF or Word files are available for my students after the lesson.
I finish the lesson practicing exam-style questions, and I provide my students with lots of past exam papers. It goes without saying that regular revision is very important.

Personal Description:
Recently retired. Until the advent of Covid I would always travel to the tutee. I was forced into online tutoring very reluctantly. Being happy with the technology meant the transition was much smoother than I anticipated.
I am now so happy with this method of tutoring I would even use it if the tutee was living next door.
For some years now I have been tutoring mainly A level to students all over England and Wales. This means I have become conversant with all relevant Exam boards. Although I have tutored EDEXCEL I would now restrict this to the first year. The second year is very specialised in parts and not to my liking. Consequently, I am happy tutoring all four exam boards except for EDEXEL in the second year.
Teaching Experience:
30 years in comprehensive school. Examining experience at GCSE and A level.
AQA
WJEC
and OCR
Experienced tutor. Very good results when contacted early.
I am equally confident in tutoring students at both ends of the ability range. Over the last three years I have had about ten students proceed to medical school or biological sciences at quite prestigious universities.
BUT! I equally enjoy enabling less able candidates achieve their potential - even if that involves more lowly grades.
Tutoring Approach:
As required. Past papers used extensively when possible and mark schemes provided.
I have many high quality digital resources which lend themselves to online teaching. I typically go over topics before leaving the tutee with many past paper questions.
Examining experience helps direct tutees to the salient points within questions and develop the necessary skills to answer them appropriately.
Skype is my favoured way of communicating information and this is supported by feedback from the students.
I have a very easy going relationship with tutees; I hope supportive and encourage a small degree of banter. Professional but friendly. After all, some tutees are going to be quite stressed, especially if things are not going well. My aim is to help them deal with their difficulties, not add to them

Personal Description:
My educational background is focused heavily on Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Business, Economics, Mathematics, Statistics and Accountancy possessing high attaining GCSE's and A-Levels in both areas, along with Under Graduate and Post Graduate Degrees. In addition, I can also teach Civil, Mechanical, Electrical Engineering students.
Teaching Experience:
I have been an active tutor for the past 15 years making an instant impact on the performance of my tutees in their examinations and now I have taken a step forward to teach on-line sessions (e.g. zoom and etc.) at competitive rates if you are willing to get good grades then I assure you that you contacting the right person.
Tutoring Approach:
I believe teaching in today's current educational climate lacks innovation and depth, thus many students finding subjects extremely difficult! I aim to develop confidence in all tutees as well as fully prepare them for their exams catering for all the UK Examination Boards.

Personal Description:
Professional, amiable and passionate Oxford educated teacher, with experience teaching at some of the best schools in London. A level Chemistry and GCSE Science/Mathematics tuition. Available daytime, evenings and weekends.
Hello, my name is Christopher, I've taught Science and Mathematics for over 20 years, having previously taught Chemistry and Lower Science at Highgate School, North London, as well as Science and Mathematics at City of London School for Girls. I established a tuition business back in 2005, after graduating from Oxford University (Worcester College 2001 - 2005), with a Masters in Chemistry.
Teaching Experience:
I am a friendly, approachable Oxford educated teacher with over 20 years tutoring experience, comprising a mix of one-to-one tuition, teaching within small groups as well as larger classroom environments. I have extensive, detailed knowledge of all the major GCSE and A-level examination boards, with particular expertise in the OCR, Edexcel, CIE/Pre-U, WJEC and AQA syllabuses.
I've taught A-level Chemistry and GCSE Science at Highgate School, North London, and both Chemistry and Mathematics at City of London School for Girls. I have experience teaching pupils affected with learning difficulties such as ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia and those on the autistic spectrum.
I also offer tuition for the BMAT and GAMSAT medical school entrance exams. Over the past decade, I have helped numerous students of school age (as well as mature students), with these difficult, niche tests, gain entry to their chosen medical school. Additionally, I offer bespoke coaching and mock interview practice for those applying to medical school and Oxbridge, including the preparation of a Personal Statement for the UCAS form (this being one of my designated roles at Highgate).
Lastly, I have substantial experience preparing students for the 13+ (Common Entrance) and 16+ exams, with some of my previous cohort gaining entry to very prestigious schools in the U.K., such as Winchester College, Westminster School and City of London School for Girls (where I taught both Mathematics and Chemistry for over two years). Furthermore, I have been an examiner for these papers too.
Trust when I say I have a deep understanding of what content goes into these tests; I've written the questions as well as marked them!
2024-2025 rate for all services: £65/hour
A 120 minute session is charged at a reduced rate of £120.
Full online tuition services are provided utilising whatever platform you wish - whether it be Zoom, Skype or Microsoft Teams. Online lessons are streamed in full HD using professional audio, visual and lighting equipment, ensuring your experience is as close as possible to in-person tuition. Furthermore, I utilise an electronic whiteboard, so you can take notes during the lesson and we can discuss problems in real-time. Lastly, practice questions, mark schemes and notes can be sent over instantly during the lesson.
I have an extensive list of references from previously satisfied clients for your perusal - please get in touch and see my personal website and Google Business listing for more information.
Tutoring Approach:
I aim to get the very best out of students using a variety of teaching methods with a strong emphasis on exam technique. I have helped pupils of all ages and abilities both on a one-to-one basis as well as within small groups/large classroom environments.
Every person is different, and every person has his/her own grasping ability whether at home or in school. With this in mind I am very flexible and adaptable in my approach to teaching, and endeavour to create a learning environment where the pupil can thrive.

Personal Description:
⭐ In a nutshell:
· Tutoring for more than 10 years, up to and including GCSE Maths & the Sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Physics)
· MSc in Positive Psychology; tutored and mentored students from all backgrounds including shy/anxious/introverted/neurodiverse (feel free to ask me about this)
· Outside of tutoring I enjoy writing (I'm an author)
I believe in a well-rounded holistic education; I previously piloted an alternative to University called Thriva Programme.
Below you can find more information about my tutoring experience, approach, and what parents have said about my tutoring.
Teaching Experience:
Since 2010, I have been tutoring in the academic subjects Maths and the individual Sciences; Biology, Chemistry & Physics.
I have taught at both primary- and secondary-school levels, with my students ranging between the ages of 6 and 16.
I can also help with entrance examinations for secondary school (including verbal and non-verbal reasoning), and I have provided mentorship and coaching when it comes to UCAS application forms, personal statements and CV writing.
Whilst I enjoyed some of the subjects at school, certain subjects and topics (including Maths!) didn't come naturally to me. I achieved 7A*s and 5A*s at GCSE, and went on to study Biology, Chemistry & Maths at A-Level.
Tutoring Approach:
As I have already mentioned, I have a Masters in Applied Positive Psychology and my tutoring approach is a student-centred one. My experiences covers tutoring, mentoring and coaching and I use a combination of the three in my work.
I am yet to come across a student who doesn't possess the potential to improve. More often than not, it is the large class sizes at school, or a teacher whose approach isn't the right fit, which explains why a student doesn't understand a particular subject, or particular topics within that subject.
Through the 1-to-1 work I do with students, not only have I witnessed some remarkable grade improvements but also some amazing transformations in confidence. I strongly feel that the work I do is more than merely improving grades for exams.
⭐ My philosophy is that if you are struggling with a particular subject or topic, it's not your fault and there's nothing wrong with you. It simply means you've not been taught in a way that makes sense to you (or you've not been given the time and attention to be taught properly - in a big class and with the pressures of working through an extensive curriculum).
I'm based near Kingston and offer tutoring in-person and online (though I try to meet in-person first where possible, as this tends to work best for the tutoring relationship).
⭐ Please note: I currently tutor part-time and currently have limited spaces available, so you're encouraged to apply early before spaces fill up before the next academic year

Here are some of the references and messages I have received from parents thus far.
REFERENCES:
"Hi Jas - Alfie got 3 B's for each of his sciences! He only just missed an A for Chemistry. He is absolutely delighted despite school's wish for A's. Thank you for all your help - there is no doubt it made a huge difference to him. You were a total star to him - and the summer has been good to him - his confidence is finally starting to improve & I think it's a lot down to your encouragement and believing in him. We went away just after getting the results - my biggest apologies for being so slow to get news to you. Very best wishes, Kris"
- Kris (Head of Art Therapies, East London Foundation NHS Trust)
"Jas has tutored our daughter for the last few months in Chemistry, Biology and Physics at GCSE level. Jas was very reliable, committed and enthusiastic in his role and we feel our daughter greatly benefitted from his tutoring. He was always encouraging and recognising her needs were beyond the academic, spent time developing her confidence in the academic subjects he was teaching her as well as also encouraging her self-belief. He appeared sensitive to her needs and adapted the work accordingly. Jas also demonstrated great insight in what motivated our daughter and went out of his way to make every session engaging and enjoyable. Jas also developed a positive, professional relationship with both my husband and I, keeping us well informed about our daughter's progress and what support we could give her. I feel that this wider, more holistic approach, really helped our daughter feel better about herself, as well as develop a positive approach towards her exams which she has now entered with considerably more knowledge and confidence than had she not worked with him. I also recommended Jas to a friend who's son was also doing his GCSE's and she told me how pleased they were with the help he had been able to give to him. I would have no hesitation in recommending Jas to others who are looking for GCSE tutoring."
- Emma & Paul (Emma - Drama Therapist (HCPC Registered), Paul - Head of Maths Department, secondary school)
"Jas has helped Daniel enormously with his maths and science over the past few months in preparation for the upcoming GCSE's. He is a charming and good humored person who Daniel relates to quite well which made the two hours tuition every Saturday morning not such a chore! Both Daniel and I, as a parent, would certainly recommend Jas to any future students."
- Denise
"Jas tutored my son Nathan for his Chemistry and German GCSEs in 2013. I found him to be a reliable and conscientious young man and I was very happy with his services."

Personal Description:
I am a bilingual (native Russian) educator with extensive experience teaching Science, Maths, and Russian across various levels, from nursery to adult education. Currently, I teach Chemistry, Physics, Biology, and advanced Maths at a small independent school in Bedfordshire.
I specialize in Maths and Science and have a particular interest in working with students with special needs and autism. I offer intensive GCSE exam preparation, with proven results such as helping a student improve their grade from 5 to 7 in just two months through focused sessions.
I hold multiple teaching qualifications, including an MA in Education (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities), which I obtained in 2022. I have also worked as an examiner for AQA in GCSE Chemistry and have experience supporting students with challenging behaviours and special educational needs.
My approach incorporates sensory stimuli to enhance engagement and reduce transitional times, based on my dissertation research into educational motivation for teenagers with challenging behaviours. I am passionate about leveraging students' natural interests to drive positive changes in behaviour and academic attitudes.
Teaching Experience:
I have extensive experience teaching Maths, Science, and Russian, both face-to-face and online. I employ various student engagement strategies to ensure a productive and enjoyable learning experience.
I began teaching Science in 1989 in Siberia. Since then, I have taught students of various ages and, after moving to the UK, expanded my teaching to include Russian. I also founded and ran a Russian language school for over 11 years, where I developed and tailored curricula to meet individual needs. The teachers I trained in my school are now making an impact in schools across the UK.
Maths: I teach Maths at various levels, from primary to GCSE. My approach focuses on building a solid understanding and confidence in the subject.
Science: I have been teaching Science since 1989 in different countries. In my most recent role at a private behavioural school, 90% of students initially expressed a dislike for Science, but 60% ended up eagerly attending my classes.
Russian: I teach Russian to a wide range of age groups, from 3-year-olds to 76-year-olds. I use diverse techniques tailored to each student's age, learning style, and schooling level to boost their confidence and maximize their potential.
SEND: I have a strong interest in teaching students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), sensory issues, and challenging behaviours. I aim to equip all my students with the skills needed for employability and adaptation to the working environment.
Tutoring Approach:
My goal as a tutor is to cultivate a deep understanding and confidence in each student. I adapt my teaching methods to meet their individual needs, learning styles, and abilities. I aim to inspire independent thinking by incorporating real-world examples whenever possible. I typically start with familiar topics to build confidence and gradually progress to more challenging material. Additionally, I use questions and homework to continually assess and reinforce understanding.

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.

Personal Description:
I previously ran my own business for 12 years before I decided that I wanted to teach chemistry in a secondary school. This was one of the best decisions I ever made- I can honestly say I love my job! After training at Etone College in Nuneaton I began working at Rawlett School (Tamworth, Staffordshire) in September 2020
I'm married with two kids and I'm a big Leicester City fan!
Teaching Experience:
I'm currently working full time as an NQT at Rawlett School in Tamworth, Staffordshire where I feel very priviledged to work as part of a very strong science department. At Rawlett I teach KS3 and KS4 (11-16). My subject specialism is Chemistry which I teach predomminantly at KS4. I teach all 3 sciences at KS3 and have taught all sciences at KS4
I previously trainined through the SCITT training programme at Etone College and Hartshill School both in Nuneaton, Warwickshire.
I've managed to survive two lockdowns of online teaching and it has been a huge learning curve for myself. During these periods I taugh live lessons using google classroom both on an individual and classroom basis.
The organisation I work for (AET academies) is a national leader for integrating technology with classroom based learning and I have hugely benefited from working for AET in this regard.
During lockdown I particularly enjoyed the challenge of adapting to the needs of SEND pupils
Quotes from my recent work appraisal:
"Shaun has demonstrated great subject knowledge including subjects outside his specialism"
Shaun uses lesson time effectively.
Shaun has demonstrated a highly professional approach to teaching and his own conduct at all times. He has started to build/maintain excellent relationship with students in his care.
Shaun's attendance, reliability and punctuality are excellent"
Tutoring Approach:
My experience in online teaching is based around using google classroom systems but I'm more than happy to adapt to applications that my pupils are more comfortable using.
I normally tutor in hour sessions and do my best to work around the schedules of my customers
I favour modelling answers and working through questions with pupils by using a graphics tablet which I find immensely useful. The learning resources I use are the results of the hardwork of the experienced team I work with at the AET academy.
I'd describe my teaching style as being driven by my passion for science. I consider it crucial to establish a good working relationship with my pupils so they feel confident enough to express what it is they are struggling to understand. I believe a sense of humour is a very underated and important tool for achieving this as well as enabling pupils to enjoy the subject being taught.

Personal Description:
I am PhD student at Harper Adams University, working on my final stages on my thesis. While I always enjoyed sharing my knowledge, I found lot of satisfaction from my students and there successes. It is really refreshing to work with young students, and that's why I am engaged in private tuition.
Also, I am Greek, but I am living and working 5 years in UK. I try to learn German, and I love DYI projects and crafts.
My professional life is mainly in the Vertical Farming sector, where my day job involves a combination of business and science tasks. Feel free to check my LinkedIn profile (Katia Zacharaki) for my background.
I have also a young daughter (9 years old), who has to have me as her tutor :).
Teaching Experience:
I have teaching experience in further and higher education, see below:
º Delivery of HE courses in Agriculture and Countryside Management
º Module leader for Strategic and Farm Business Management, Marketing, Environmental Sustainability, Global Food Security, Precision Agriculture and Dissertation for Level 4-6.
º Supervisor for Industrial Projects (Level 5) and Dissertations (Level 6)
º Engage with teaching, research and subject specific training
º Delivery of FE courses in Agriculture (Level 3) and modules as: Plant and Soil Science, Grassland Management, Business Planning and Investigative Projects (2017)
º Adult training on Agriculture, Countryside Management and Business subjects
Tutoring Approach:
My goal is to cover the necessary content with the most effective, efficient and quickest possible way. I never forget to add some fun :) .
I have already created lesson plants, which help me with the distribution of the content throughout the year/term.
I regularly assess student's progress with questions during the lesson, but also incorporating in the tests Mock tests. Mock tests help the student to familiarise with the process and reduce stress levels for all (student, parents and tutor). Mock tests include past papers (example GCSE/ A levels).
When relevant, we might use demonstrative lectures for science subjects.

Personal Description:
I have been working with children and teaching for over 20 years. I love teaching children of all ages. I really enjoy seeing children progress and their confidence grow. This is one of the reasons I really like tutoring, due to the progress being so rapid.
I live in Nuthall, Nottinghamshire with my husband and two children. Since having children, I have worked part time in schools and also I have done lots of tutoring.
Although I enjoy teaching a variety of subjects in Primary schools, I enjoy teaching maths the most. I think this is because I found it so hard at school. I really understand the barriers a lot of children have in maths and love to help them to develop a love of it.
Teaching Experience:
I have been a primary school teacher for 17 years. I have taught mainly in key stage 2 but I have experience of key stage one.
I have worked mainly in year 6 preparing children to pass their SATs and also I have tutored children to pass their 11+ exams. Being a year 6 teacher for such a long time has made me extremely confident in helping children to revise and succeed in their assessments.
I have worked closely with children who have additional needs throughout my career and I have attended lots of training in the past to support this. During the school day I tutor a large number of children who are not in education (for various reasons) and have lots of experience in helping these children.
I will adapt learning to the individual need of your child/children. Making it as interactive and fun as possible.
Although I am trained in Primary I am happy to work with secondary children who need additional support too.
Tutoring Approach:
I like to try tailor the sessions to meet the needs of the individual. I love doing this because it is something that all children need but as a classroom teacher of 30 is not always possible.
If your child needs active learning, if they need lots of repetition to make the learning stick then I can do that. I will try to make the learning as fun as possible and I will also provide home tasks (optional) to support your child's learning in between sessions.
Any questions or just for some advice or a chat please get in touch. I also run group sessions each week which are obviously cheaper than the 1:1 option.

Personal Description:
Hello, I'm Ibrahim, a Dentistry student at the University of Birmingham with a passion for helping students succeed in Biology, Chemistry and Maths. I studied at Reading School, one of the UK's top grammar schools, and achieved A*A*A in Biology, Chemistry and Maths at A-level. Having gone through these exams myself, I know what it takes to achieve top grades and can guide students to reach their full potential.
Having been a tutee for many years, with a variety of different tutors, I can recognise what separates a good tutor from a great tutor - whether it's lesson pacing, subject expertise, student-tutor relationships, and more. Despite being in my first year of uni, I already have 2 years of experience working in a customer facing role at Waitrose, which has undoubtedly provided me with a plethora of transferable skills that I can apply with my students.
Teaching Experience:
I offer tuition in A-level and GCSE Biology and Chemistry, as well as GCSE Maths, with experience across OCR, AQA and Edexcel exam boards.
Previously, I have mentored Year 7 pupils in Maths, adapting explanations to different abilities while building confidence in the topic at hand. I have also tutored a family member, helping her go from a Grade 4 to 8 in Maths, and 5 to 8 in Biology and Chemistry in only 6 months!
Moreover, I have plenty of informal tutoring and teaching experience whether it be helping a struggling classmate after class, or going on a group call to help clarify my classmates concerns. I have received an abundance of positive recommendations amongst a wide array of tutoring platforms. I aim to make revision structured, manageable, (and of course enjoyable), while helping you achieve the results you're aiming for.
Tutoring Approach:
My lessons follow a clear structure: we begin with a short recap, then cover new material, ensuring I simplify difficult concepts. We then move onto exam-style questions and, when ready, full past papers - the tried and tested method that helped me secure A*A*A at A-Level.
