I have good communication skills. I am very flexible--available as needed. I work hard. I am a dependable person.
Teaching Experience:
I have been tutoring Maths and Science for over 20 years both in America and in UK I have the ability of explaining mathematical concepts in a very simple way that even those who hate Math start to enjoy doing Maths. I also tutor Nursing, respiratory therapy, handwriting and cake decorating and sewing.
Tutoring Approach:
I try to find out where the problem is first for the person I am tutoring. Each person is different and I tutor according to the person's needs, so my approach varies, depending on the person I am tutoring.
I can say I am a very good tutor (if not excellent). Just give me a try.

Personal Description:
I have over 15 years of experience helping OCR A A-Level Chemistry students stuck on a B/C grade who understand the content but struggle in exams to write A/A* answers
Hi, I'm Ope the Tutor, a passionate A-Level Chemistry tutor and current examiner dedicated to helping students accomplish their goals.
With a strong academic background in Chemistry and 15+ years of experience supporting hundreds of learners supported, I've built my tutoring ethos around clarity, empathy, and results. I do specialised OCR A groups so I tailor each session to conform to the OCR A specification and examiner marking style. I offer a group-only or a hybrid group programme as well as private 1-to-1s.
My goal is simple: to make Chemistry feel less intimidating and clearer. I believe every student has the potential to succeed, and I work hard to create a space where they feel confident asking questions, making mistakes, and growing. Whether we're tackling tricky organic mechanisms or reviewing exam technique, I focus on building deep understanding, not just memorisation.
Teaching Experience:
I have over 15 years of tutoring experience helping A-Level Chemistry students improve their exam performance.
I particularly help A-Level Chemistry students stuck on a B/C grade who understand the content but struggle in exams to write A/A* answers through structured exam technique training. Each session focuses on 3 things:
1. Solidifying concepts: We focus on difficult topics that the student has identified as weak areas.
2. Mark scheme language: Students learn exactly how examiners award marks and how to structure answers for optimal marks.
3. Exam application: We practise past paper questions, applying learned techniques and analyse mistakes.
This approach helps students translate understanding into marks.
My 1:1s are suitable for students with specific topic weaknesses, deadlines for re-sits, need mock/assessment reviews, as it is student-led. I also run hybrid group sessions with 1:1 support.
All sessions are recorded for playback and include:
• High level exam questions
• Mark scheme analysis
• Personal feedback on common mistakes made.
• If your child is studying A-Level Chemistry and wants to improve exam performance, the best place to start is a trial session.
During the trial, I will:
• Assess current strengths and weaknesses
• Recommend a tutoring schedule or recommend the group programme if it would be a better fit.
Tutoring Approach:
My 1:1 sessions are tailored to you in the sense that I will prioritise what you want to cover - gaps in knowledge, refreshers etc. A typical session with me starts with a quick recap on the previous content. From there, we dive into the topic using a mix of visual aids, exam-style questions, and real-world analogies to bring the subject to life. I encourage active participation, asking you to explain concepts back to me, solve problems collaboratively, and reflect on what you've learned. I also weave in exam style questions and homework support so you're not just learning the material, you're learning how to apply it as you would in the exam.
In my hybrid group sesions, you get the best of both worlds - you not only gain structure and support from me but from your peers in your micro-group coupled with regular 1:1 support so you get individualised support too.
I offer discounted trial sessions so I can fully understand your particular requirements before the first session and the student can get a feel for my teaching style before committing. My online booking system is simple and flexible, with clear pricing and recurring slots available for consistent support. You get access to a student portal, from where you can easily manage your bookings, payments, homework submission and best of all, have access to the best-in-class online classroom equipped for online learning (no awkward Zoom sessions here!)
What sets my tutoring apart is the personal connection I build with each student and my strong OCR Chemistry expertise. I bring warmth, patience, and understanding to every session, and I'm genuinely invested in your progress. My tutoring isn't only about grades, it's about helping you discover your strengths, build confidence, and feel proud of your journey.
If you're ready to make Chemistry click, I'd love to work with you. Let's get rid of the confusion and help you reach your goals.
Note: price listed on my profile is the discounted monthly rate for 1:1s. Please contact me to learn more about varying pricing structures offered for 1:1s and labs.

Personal Description:
⭐ Tutoring for more than 10 years in English, Maths and the Sciences (Biology, Chemistry, & Physics)
⭐ MSc in Positive Psychology; tutored and mentored students from all backgrounds including shy/anxious/introverted/SEN students
⭐ I believe in a well-rounded holistic education; not just passing exams; every student I have worked with has improved their grade(s) and grown in confidence
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 English, 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 5As at GCSE and studied Maths, Biology & Chemistry at A-Level.
Tutoring Approach:
I have a Masters in Applied Positive Psychology and my tutoring approach is a student-centred one. My experience 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 on teachers to deliver an extensive curriculum).
⭐ I'm based near Twickenham/Teddington/Kingston and offer tutoring in-person and online (my preference is in-person where possible, as this tends to work best for the tutoring relationship and the outcomes that can be achieved).
⭐ Please note: I can only take on a limited number of students, so you're encouraged to apply early before spaces fill up.

Here are some of the references and messages I have received from parents and students:
"Hi Jas - Alfie got 3 B's for each of his sciences! He only just missed an A for Chemistry. He is absolutely delighted... 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.
- Kris H. (parent)
"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 G. (parents)
"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."
- Sally C. (parent)
"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 S. (parent)
Jas has been tutoring both my children in preparation for their 11+ exams. Both Oliver and Sofia love Jas and they benefited immensely from his caring passionate and professional tutoring system. I would never hesitate to ask Jas to help both my children again if they encounter difficulties in any subject or helping them again getting ready for common entrance exams. In a nutshell, having had previous experiences with various tutors, I would strongly recommend him to anyone, as I already have done.

"I first met Jas when I was looking for a maths tutor for my 9 year old daughter. Upon reading his profile I warmed instantly to his holistic and person-centred approach. My daughter is a quiet girl and having not had a tutor before I wanted someone who could inspire her and increase her confidence. The tutoring sessions went extremely well from the start and Jas was able to build a positive relationship with Lana. He is an excellent communicator and was very engaging with not only Lana but the rest of the family. He tailored the sessions to Lana's academic needs but also took into her account her thoughts and feelings. This enabled them to work in partnership together which really helped build Lana's confidence. Jas was also very reliable and gave feedback that was positive and motivational.
I would highly recommend Jas to work with young people as he seems to understand their needs by listening and working with them in partnership. Working in this way lets the young person/child build a relationship that is based on mutual trust instead of an authoritarian relationship in which the young person/child feels that can't have any input."
- Nicky S. (parent)
"Jas is an amazing teacher and works exceedingly well with kids from any age group. He is very patient and lets children take their own time on things they find difficult and challenging. If children get stressed about stuff he will let them have a little break and talk about other things in life. Jas is very encouraging and motivates kids to try their hardest at every single subject in maths."
- Lana S. (student)
"Jas has been tutoring my son in all three science topics for preparation for Winchester Admission Examinations for Year 9. He is professional, courteous and reliable. He established an excellent rapport with my son and despite the intensity of preparation required, he managed to maintain my son's motivation throughout the 18 month period, which was not a easy thing to achieve. As the standard required to pass these exams was a very high (beyond ISEB Common Entrance), this was a very stressful and intense period for us all. Jas understood that there needed to a balance between work sessions and relaxation sessions - and he always made time to talk to my son about things other than just study topics which minimised stress and tension. My son appreciated Jas's guidance and advice and enjoyed the fact that Jas showed a keen interest in his hobbies. The result was that my son always looked forward to his sessions, even though they were hard work. He is also delighted to be off to Winchester College in September!"

Personal Description:
I am a full-time professional tutor, current GCSE and A-level examiner, former University Lecturer in Pharmacy at the University of Nottingham, and former Vice-President of the UK's professional body for private tutors. I also have secondary level classroom teaching experience.
I hold a degree in Biomedical Chemistry and a PhD in Analytical Biochemistry from Imperial College London. I have led cutting-edge research projects for multinational pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and academia, putting my research training in science and statistics into practice. My published research has been cited more than 7,000 times in peer-reviewed scientific literature. I also currently serve on the editorial boards of several respected international scientific journals.
Despite this background, my approach to tutoring is friendly and patient. I am very approachable and believe it is important for students to realise that high levels of qualifications are achievable.
I enjoy working with students of all ages and abilities, from those who need to strengthen their foundations and rebuild confidence to ambitious students aiming for the highest grades and competitive university courses. I take the time to understand each student's individual strengths, challenges and goals, tailoring my teaching to help them make sustained progress.
My experience in higher education also enables me to offer expert guidance beyond the classroom. As a university lecturer, I taught at both undergraduate and postgraduate level and supervised eight PhD students to successful completion. Having also interviewed numerous UCAS applicants, I can support students with university applications, personal statements and preparation for the next stage of their education.
Ultimately, I want every student I work with to feel supported, challenged and confident in their ability to succeed. Academic results are important-and I am immensely proud of the outcomes my students achieve-but I also believe that the most valuable tutoring builds confidence, independence and a genuine understanding that stays with students long after their examinations are over.
Teaching Experience:
I have been a full-time professional tutor for over thirteen years.
At A level, my most recent results were 100% A*-C, with 85% achieving A*-A, 8% achieving B and 7% achieving C. Every student secured a place at their first-choice university, with 31% progressing to medical school. These results are consistent year after year.
At GCSE in 2026, my students achieved 100% grades 9-7 on Higher Tier papers, while students taking Foundation Tier papers achieved 100% grade 5, the highest grade available at that level.
I have extensive experience teaching across all major examination boards, including AQA, OCR, Edexcel, IB and CIE. As a current and highly experienced Biology examiner and question setter, I can give insight into how examiners award marks and what distinguishes high-level answers.
Alongside tutoring, I have taught in secondary schools, keeping my teaching closely aligned with current curricula, classroom practice and examination requirements.
I also have experience supporting students with additional needs, including autism, ADHD, dyslexia, dyscalculia and partial hearing. I particularly enjoy finding new ways to approach topics to ensure understanding and seeing students get their "light-bulb" moment. Further, having lived and worked in another European country for several years I can empathise with the additional difficulties that students for whom English is an additional language (EAL) face.
I tailor my approach to each student, combining clear subject teaching with targeted exam technique and confidence-building. My aim is not simply to help students improve their grades, but to give them the understanding, skills and confidence to achieve their full academic potential.
My standing within the profession is reflected in my election as Vice-President of The Tutors' Association, the UK's professional body for tutors.
Tutoring Approach:
I offer both face-to-face tuition and online tuition via Zoom, allowing students and families to choose the format that best suits their circumstances and learning preferences.
For face-to-face tuition, students travel to me for lessons in a dedicated and quiet learning environment, free from distractions. Having my full range of teaching resources and reference books immediately to hand allows us to make the most of every session. Driveway parking is available, making drop-offs and pick-ups easy.
Online tuition via Zoom offers an equally personal and highly interactive experience. Although some students are initially unsure whether online learning will feel as engaging as face-to-face tuition, many find that they quickly adapt and ultimately prefer it. Learning from home provides a comfortable and familiar environment, removes travel time and disruption, and offers greater flexibility around busy school and family schedules. It is also a convenient and more environmentally sustainable way to access specialist tuition.
Every lesson is supported by high-quality, carefully selected resources. Online students receive a detailed AI-generated summary following each session, together with a PDF copy of all work completed on my interactive whiteboard. This gives students a clear, structured record of the lesson that they can revisit independently, helping to consolidate understanding and reinforce learning between sessions.
My teaching is genuinely personalised. Before tuition begins, we establish clear objectives and identify the areas that will have the greatest impact on the student's progress. I then design a tailored programme of study around their individual needs, strengths and aspirations. Progress is monitored continuously through questioning, assessment and regular review, allowing me to adapt the pace, content and focus of tuition as the student develops.
I place particular importance on creating a learning environment that is positive, supportive and intellectually stimulating. Students should feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes and tackling challenging material without fear of getting things wrong. I want them to leave each lesson feeling that they have achieved something meaningful and, importantly, that they are capable of achieving more.
Ultimately, my aim is to combine expert subject knowledge, rigorous exam preparation and genuinely individualised teaching with an enjoyable learning experience. When students understand what they are learning, feel confident in their abilities and can see their own progress, they are far more likely to achieve their very best.

Personal Description:
I have cisco webex software, zoom and skype, and am also DBS cleared
I am a highly experienced, enthusiastic and very versatile optical engineering senior lecturer/researcher, who gained a PhD from the School of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences, City University, London, UK in "Fibre optical temperature and strain sensors using fluorescent techniques" for measurement applications using the fluorescence generated from rare earth-doped optical fibres (e.g. Er3+, Yb3+, Tm3+ etc.). I also possess very good experience and knowledge of industry, with excellent complimentary skills gained from higher education - in particular industrial measurement, forensic analysis, quality control and statistical analysis. A BSc first degree in forensic science is combined with a further specialist MSc in engineering metrology and topped with a PhD in photonics - making for good, broad-based, multi-disciplined measurement science and analytical capabilities right across the scientific spectrum. I have a proven high degree of personal motivation, and am capable of working on my own initiative or equally as part of an effective team. In addition, I am able to communicate very well at all levels of hierarchy, with excellent skills developed in scientific report writing (journal papers, periodicals, book chapters etc.) and oral presentation (conferences, lecturing etc). I have over 50 publications to date in my field: 20 journal papers, 22 conference papers, 2 articles, 4 book chapters and other major works.
PhD thesis title:
"Fibre optic sensors based on fluorescence lifetime techniques for temperature and strain measurement"
Thesis submitted for examination for the degree of
Doctor of Philosophy
at
City University
School of Engineering
November 2002
Abstract
The author presents a thesis based upon the use of the fluorescent properties of rare earth doped materials. The thesis commences with a review of the current fibre sensor technology in the field, with special emphasis on those sensors designed for temperature and strain measurement. The use of the physical phenomena of fluorescence produced from rare earth doped optical fibre for temperature measurement is then introduced and explained in more detail, particularly with regard to utilisation of the fluorescence lifetime technique in such sensing, which is then compared to the other fluorescence-based methods for measuring temperature.
The recently discovered small strain sensitivity of the fluorescence lifetime is then introduced as a theoretical candidate for potential application to simultaneous temperature-strain sensing, using two different doped fibres in a single sensing element, and subsequently state-of-the-art temperature-strain discrimination techniques are then explored for the purposes of exploitation to dual measurement.
Results achieved from using the fluorescent lifetime approach for a range of rare earth materials are then presented, followed by further results obtained from combining the lifetime technique with Fibre Bragg gratings (FBGs) for the first time. Also, the irreversible effects upon FBG performance after exposure to long-term high temperatures are explored.
Finally, there is a summary of the work presented in this thesis and the author's opinions on achievements made. Current trends in fluorescence lifetime-based sensing are discussed, both commercially and academically, together with projected work for the future.

Personal Description:
Learning how to learn is important for everyone and I can help students build their own study skills , developing both abilities and confidence. My own love for learning is evidenced by my hobbies which extend from sailing through to singing, piano, camping and walking and even the piano accordion. I enjoy science, and am keen to spark a similar interest in all my pupils in a way which is relevant to their personal ability and interest.
Teaching Experience:
I have been teaching all my adult life; in schools, colleges, field study centres, adult education and in the home. Having started my career in 11-18 Educatio, teaching science , in outer London I straight away starting teaching 'A'level Biology at home to a poorly student. Other experience includes : centre manager, deputy principal and ESD manager for the county council as well as taking on regional/national roles in learning for sustainability. 9 years ago I returned to secondary school teaching and I have since taught GCSE Science (main focus on Chemistry and Biology) in five good and outstanding schools in Dorset, working with all the main exam boards. I'm proficient in both the 2011 and 2016 GCSE syllabus and I particularly enjoy the challenges of AQA Science as well asEdExcel adapting them for all ability levels. My A level tutoring is focussed on question answering across the OCR syllabus.
Tutoring Approach:
Whether teaching at home or in school I support my students in gaining mastery of the content relevant to their particular exam board. Recalling and applying that knowledge and understanding to different contexts and to different questions is so important. In my classes I will not be the only one who is working hard! Believing in success and enjoying learning are part of the process, as well as helping students to get unstuck and improve their answers.

Tutoring Approach:
I usually start with the current topics that student is studying in the school and explain to the student that topic and related background knowledge. As I teach one to one, my pace is faster than school and we usually finish the topic in one or sometimes two classes. And then we do previous topics and I explain doubts on those topics. I usually do not teach students that they already know, instead, start topic wise past papers of the topics students feel he or she knows well.
I explain to students how to write the answer to the questions asked,... not what they know... in a very concise and complete manner and relate the answers to the mark schemes of the past papers... and there is a lot of similar things that I explain...

Personal Description:
I am a secondary school Science and Maths teacher. Experience with low ability pupils and high achievers. I tutor in Physics, Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics. Experience with AQA and Edexcel exam boards
Teaching Experience:
I have taught in several challenging schools with a range of pupils including those with SEN and behavioural difficulties. I have a wide range of experience with pupils struggling with engagement and motivation, and I aim to make learning accessible and relevant. I also teach pupils who are striving for that extra bit more to move up a grade and really excel as they move on to the next stage in their education, whether that is GCSES, A-Levels or University/College.
Tutoring Approach:
I like to keep it casual and relaxed and use lots of real world examples to apply the principles being taught. This makes the material more accessible and easier to remember come exam time.

Personal Description:
I'm a second year biomedical science student. I took my A-Levels in Maths, Biology, Chemistry and Physics in 2019 and GCSEs in 2017 and having recently done these exams, I know just how challenging they are.
Being a student myself and having the experience of currently tutoring students who are doing their GCSEs and A-Levels, I know the methods that work best to help your child understand the content they need to know. I understand the way young people learn very well and the ways I teach reflect this - with an extensive focus on understanding (not memorising) and application to real-world contexts so your child can appreciate the reason behind learning what they learn. In addition to this, I offer extensive exam practice to ensure they understand their course, its structure, and how to maximise marks in their exams.
Teaching Experience:
I have been teaching students of varying ages for over a year now in Maths, Chemistry and Biology. Some of my students have been predicted As and A*s at their current level - some of them had started out at C grades when they had first come to me.
Tutoring Approach:
My aim is to work with your child to help them learn and understand the content (rather than simply memorise) so the sessions your child has with me will be greatly focused on what they would like to learn in their specification, what areas they need to improve on, and exam question practice and please be rest assured that you'll be updated about their progress regularly.

Personal Description:
I am an artist and qualified primary school teacher interested in textiles, printmaking and material design. My degree was in History of Art and Material Studies so I love all things art. I find art and teaching perfectly complimentary in that the more I learn as a teacher, the more it informs and improves my art practice and vice versa.
Teaching Experience:
I recently completed the Teach First programme and qualified as an outstanding' primary school teacher with a Post Graduate Diploma in Education and Leadership from the Institute of Education (IOE) at UCL. For two years, I was been a Year 4 class teacher and have experience tutoring Year 5 and Year 6 students in preparation for their common entrance exams. I have also tutored A-level students in History of Art. I am currently teaching part time and tutoring in the evenings and on weekends alongside studying at UAL, Camberwell College of Art, where I am pursuing my interest in art and design.
Tutoring Approach:
I believe that children learn best when they are having fun so I try to use creative teaching approaches to maximise engagement. I am enthusiastic about teaching and I want to encourage children and young adults to be intrinsically motivated to learn.

Personal Description:
As the Head of Chemistry at a high-performing London Grammar School, I have a wealth of knowledge and experience in teaching Chemistry. I have 12 years of teaching practice at UK schools as well as online tuition. I have a PhD from Imperial College and have been working as a post-doctoral researcher in the field of cancer for 6 years prior to my teaching career.
I am passionate about helping students develop a love for Chemistry and achieve their academic goals. I understand that learning can be challenging, and that is why I provide a supportive and encouraging learning environment. I will motivate you to do your best and instill a love for Chemistry that will stay with you long after you have completed your studies.

As a highly experienced teacher with over 12 years of experience at one of the best schools in the UK, I have had the privilege of teaching Chemistry to a wide range of students. Over the years, I have developed a deep understanding of the subject and a passion for helping students achieve their academic potential.
In addition to my teaching experience, I have been a private tutor for several years, working with students of all levels to improve their understanding of Chemistry and achieve their desired grades. I have also been running exam revision courses at a private school for 6 years, helping students to prepare for their A-level exams.
Through my experience as a teacher and private tutor, I have developed a range of effective teaching methods that are tailored to the needs of each individual student. I believe that every student can achieve their academic goals with the right support and guidance, and I am committed to providing that support through my online tuition service.
Tutoring Approach:
I understand that every student has unique needs and learning styles. That is why I work with you to create a personalized learning plan based on your individual needs and goals. We will start by identifying your strengths and weaknesses in Chemistry, and then I will use a range of teaching methods, including content revision and targeted exam practice, to help you fully understand the subject and achieve your desired grade.
Whether you need help with specific topics, want to work on exam technique, or need regular support to keep up with the curriculum, I can provide the support you need to succeed. I am available to answer your questions and provide feedback on your work outside of lessons, so you always have the support you need to excel.

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:
As a recently retired Chartered Engineer I'm looking to help students to improve, and gain confidence in, their maths or science skills. This might be helping with subjects that the student finds difficult, catching up with missed work, assisting with coursework, or stretching a budding genius
Teaching Experience:
I have been providing personal tuition to students for about 10 years. I only take on a couple of students at a time so that I can spend enough time with them. Most of my students have come to me through word of mouth.
Tutoring Approach:
Try to understand what the student finds difficult and focus on the big issues.
