Personal Description:
I am a friendly and easy going person who believes that everyone has the ability to learn. I am passionate about the outdoors and through teaching in schools I have often used the outdoors as a learning environment.
I have a degree in music and my PGCE primary is a mathematics specialism, although I am happy to home tutor in all areas of the primary curriculum.
Teaching Experience:
I am a qualified primary school teacher with 15 years experience working in two contrasting primary schools and a secondary school. I have taught all subject areas in Key stage 1 & 2 and through my secondary experience I have worked with lower ability students to boost their levels and supporting them to reach their full potential in English and Maths. I have also worked alongside students from year 9 to 11 to support them gaining a grade 4 (formally a C grade) in GCSE Foundation maths.
I have a current DBS and am a member of the General Teaching Council.
Tutoring Approach:
My primary approach to teaching is that if children are enjoying what they are learning then the information is more likely to be retained. I believe that it is important for a child to be involved in their own learning, encouraging the children to identify the areas that they are weaker in also enables the children to learn. I aim to both challenge the students and encourage them to achieve their goals.

Personal Description:
I am now a full time tutor after spending two decades teaching Mathematics and Science.
Teaching Experience:
I am a very experienced teacher. I have been the Head of Mathematics at a private school and previously taught in state schools.
Tutoring Approach:
The first three tutoring sessions are quite diagnostic. The aim is not only to find out strengths and weaknesses but also to see how quickly we can cover topics with most of the information retained.
As we cover material at a much faster rate than in normal class lessons.; recaps at speed become more import as lessons develop and confidence improves. The syllabus and past exam papers provide the main framework for most lessons.
Exam technique lessons, examiners mark schemes and revision materials are normally provided.

Personal Description:
I offer one-to-one tuition in maths, biology, chemistry and eleven plus. One-to-one tutoring is a great way for students to become more confident in their subject, and to ask all those questions they don't ask in class. My graduate degree is in chemistry, while I also have a doctorate in medical molecular genetics and a teaching qualification.
Teaching Experience:
I have thirteen years' experience as a tutor and have tutored over 200 students in maths, chemistry, biology and physics. My students include home-schooled students and students who self-study.
I tutor maths at various levels, from Functional Skills to GCSE and chemistry, biology, physics and combined science at GCSE level.
Furthermore, I tutor chemistry and biology at A-level. I am comfortable supporting students with any aspect of their syllabus and, in particular, with the mathematics of chemistry and biology and the biology topic of genetics and biotechnology. Human biology is a particular interest of mine.
Tutoring Approach:
My approach to tutoring is different for every student because every student requires support with different sections of the curriculum. Students studying for an exam may need help with subject content or exam technique, or both, while students who are not in exam years may need support with topics addressed in class. I plan the tutoring sessions around those needs and always with the individual student in mind, which is why the sessions are different for every student. I very much value input from the student with regard to areas of difficulty and learning style so that together we can get the most out of our time. I offer in-person and online tuition.
I am now taking bookings for the next academic year, 2025-2026. Lessons can start from June onwards. For home-schooled students and those self-studying, I am available during the day.

Personal Description:
After completing my D.Phil from the University of Oxford, I worked for 7 years as a Senior Biologist for a small drug discovery company where I was responsible for screening new drug targets in tissue models for human disease. Over the years I've had so many comments from students/colleagues about my ability to break subjects down to ease understanding, and coupled with my passion for science and sharing that with others I decided to change career and become a full-time science tutor. I've never looked back!
I am also a freelance examiner for Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) - examining is invaluable to my role as a science tutor and to the development of my students' abilities in preparation for their examinations. It has taught me to understand the very specific focus of each syllabus as a whole, to read for the specific aim of relevant text, and to concentrate not just on surface comprehension but to expand science beyond basic skills.
I have many hobbies but particularly enjoy outdoor pursuits including: sailing, mountaineering, climbing, mountain biking and running. Most of my free time though is spent with my wonderful husband and beautiful tots!
Teaching Experience:
During my time researching at Oxford, I tutored an array of students in Biochemistry, Biology, Genetics, Human Science and Medicine.
I have vast tutoring experience at both GCSE, AS/A2 level covering all UK exam specifications, including IB.
Tutoring Approach:
My tutoring style is informal, working with each student to improve their approach to learning whilst maintaining motivation. At the end of the day, learning should be fun!
I usually charge a very small travel fee to cover the cost of fuel.

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 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.

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:
My name is Ngum-Agnes, I am 18 years old. I live in Cardiff and am currently studying Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry and French at A level.
I received all As and A*s at GCSE and A Levels and all A*s in the subject I am tutoring in.
I like to think of myself as friendly, polite and patient.
Teaching Experience:
I have had tutoring experiencing in the UK for over a year now in French, English, Mathematics, and Science.
I recently volunteered at children's orphanage in Africa where, among other things, I taught the Ethiopian children English. Doing so taught me the effectiveness and importance of patience and empathy when tutoring, as well as giving the pupil time to think through things in their own way.
Tutoring Approach:
I make sure to explain things slowly yet effectively and take time to understand the pupils way of learning and adapt my teaching in that way. I ensure that I am patient and friendly when tutoring and try to create a relaxed and calm but attentive atmosphere. I like to create a bond with my student so that they feel comfortable when learning but also eager and unafraid to ask questions when they do not understand.

Personal Description:
Born in Scotland grew up in New Zealand where I went to Otago University, the oldest in NZ and gained a 1st Class BSc (hons) and a PhD in Physiology.
I then had a research career here in the UK mainly working on muscle development. I can be found in Nature doing that.
I now have time to tutor and a deep knowledge and understanding to impart to students.
Teaching Experience:
I did a lot of Tutoring and Demonstrating during my Honours and PhD and afterwards both in the lab and with undergraduates at my institutions.
I held a Teaching Fellowship at the end of my PhD and gained much insight into how to be a better teacher.
I am good at exam technique and combined mine with my wife's when we taught our daughters.
I can cover Biology in all its school forms; Junior General Science; Physiology; Anatomy and Developmental Biology
Tutoring Approach:
I adjust my teaching to the student, in accordance with how they think and remember and the other subjects they are doing. I will always check that I am not leaving the student behind and they fully understand before moving on. I am good at finding suitable analogies.
I have experience at tutoring people from a number of different countries and cultures. Please do not think I just teach white Europeans.

Personal Description:
I'm 26 and recently discovered my love for tutoring after volunteering to take responsibility for my nephew's home schooling during lockdown. I currently study at The Open University towards a BSci Hons Natural Sciences degree. I have first hand experience of being the student and the tutor and found this invaluable when working with my nephew towards his learning aims.
Teaching Experience:
One year zoom tutoring, KS2 and KS3, all subjects.
Tutoring Approach:
I work with a high level of emotional intelligence and feel the child is happiest and most open to learning without the pressure of feeling responsible for their learning. I will only use positive reinforcement to encourage learning and find having set prizes to earn to be very effective for motivation. What I take the most joy in is tailoring lesson content to the interest of the child, enabling the child to fully engage and enjoy my lessons rather than view them as a chore.

Personal Description:
I am a passionate, kind and caring educator with a wide range of experience teaching and tutoring both in the UK and abroad. I have worked as a primary school teacher for 9 years, a part-time private tutor as well as spending time working as a Governess/nanny in Russia. My most recent teaching observation feedback (November 2020) states that 'You have a positive, purposeful and engaging learning environment fostered and your team work is seamless. Superb high quality modelling of roleplay and you extended all learning while planning in the moment. Provision is high quality and strong, positive relationships were displayed by all.' Following this observation, my headteacher wrote 'Thank you for all you do for the children - you really are amazing and we are lucky to have you!' Carly has a friendly and approachable manner with all members of staff, parents and children.' My induction report states that 'Carly has conducted herself in a professional manner at all times, forming very good relationships with the school community. She has modelled very good behaviour toward the children. She has had an excellent record with regard to following safeguarding procedures. Carly is a very good model of ethical and moral behaviour for the children. She enjoyed excellent relationships with her class. Carly had exceptional standards of punctuality and attendance. Carly followed pastoral policies well and contributed to the wider school. Carly was never unprofessional in dress or in behaviour. Carly fulfilled all aspects of the role as a class teacher including parent's evenings, hosting school events and writing reports. She worked collaboratively with colleagues and followed the lead from other professionals where appropriate.'
Teaching Experience:
I am a highly enthusiastic, caring and driven teacher with a wide range of experience teaching within the Early Years and Key Stage 1, following the English National Curriculum and Development Matters EYFS framework. I am deeply passionate about early childhood development and the relevant pedagogy; I enjoy in actively engaging with the latest research and training in this area. I am dedicated to meet the holistic needs of every child within my care as well as furthering my own personal and professional development. This is shown in my recent promotion to Wellbeing Coordinator of my school. I have worked in a wide range of schools, predominantly within the younger years, giving me broad experience across areas such as successful differentiation, progression, behaviour management techniques, and aspects such as working with children with SEN and learning EAL. Working within the international/independent sector has further ignited my passion for learning and teaching to the best of my ability. I enjoy working on a more one-to-one basis as I feel able to give every child the time that they need to make accelerated progress. I am highly thoughtful with my planning, and how I cater for individual children's needs. Feedback from parents is consistently positive and I try to make every learning experience interesting for the children I teach.
Tutoring Approach:
I am happy to tutor in-person within Bristol or online. My Specialism is Primary Education, particularly phonics, English, Language development and social skills but am willing to tutor other Primary subjects also. I try to make all teaching experiences memorable and fun for the children so that they are excited to continue furthering their skillset and knowledge.

Personal Description:
Passionate, experienced educator and Chartered Mechanical Engineer with an MBA from London Business School and a strong background in STEM fields.
Before tutoring, I worked in the city for large blue chip financial services organisations within technology and data architecture. And before that I worked for tech companies including Microsoft and Uber, taking some time to organise an expedition to Antarctica on behalf of HRH Prince Wales, the Commonwealth and the BBC. I've learned how to build and lead world-class teams and really enjoy bringing a love of mentoring into tutoring key subjects.
Beyond my work, I enjoy climbing and writing music, and I'm driven by a desire to help others succeed, both in the classroom and beyond.
Teaching Experience:
100% success rate in improving student's GCSE and A-Level performance by a minimum of 2 grades or to the top possible grade.
Experience in GCSE Maths and Physics; A-Level Maths, Further-Maths and Physics; Post-Graduate Business and Management.
"Thanks so much for all your help it really paid off! I really wasn't the biggest fan of maths but I will miss our tutoring lessons as I actually found them fun." - Tutee Testimonial
"I also want to take a moment to express my gratitude to you for the fantastic support you've given my daughter." - Tutee Parent Testimonial
General Experience:
I have also coached and mentored professionals throughout my career, guiding them through complex projects and helping them to achieve personal and team goals. My experience working with young people stems from my time as a mountain guide, where I took groups of children on outdoor expeditions, teaching them about the environment and leadership.
Tutoring Approach:
My approach to tutoring is to tailor each session to the student's individual needs, focusing on making challenging subjects like Maths, Economics and Physics more accessible and engaging.
I believe in building confidence through problem-solving and helping students develop critical thinking skills that will serve them well beyond their exams.
Drawing on my experience in high-pressure environments, I aim to foster resilience and curiosity, encouraging students to ask questions and explore topics from different angles.

I truly enjoy making complex topics accessible and inspiring a love of learning in every student I work with. Technology plays a big role in how I approach education, allowing me to create engaging, tailored lessons that spark curiosity and build confidence. By creating a supportive and engaging environment, I encourage students to overcome challenges, develop critical thinking skills and realise their full potential at every stage of their academic journey.
Teaching Experience:
I have over 9 years of tutoring experience, primarily working online but also providing private in-home tutoring. During my academic years, I volunteered as a mentor and tutor for younger students, which laid a strong foundation for my teaching approach. I have supported students across all age groups from primary and secondary levels to A-Level and university and I'm actively expanding my work with undergraduate learners.
My tutoring has helped many students achieve significant improvements, including successfully gaining admission to private schools through the 11+ exam, and boosting GCSE grades by an average of 4 grades above expectations within six months.
I cover a broad range of topics and themes across multiple subjects and educational stages, tailored to the specific needs of each student. For primary and secondary levels, I teach core subjects including Arithmetic, English, Science, Geography, History, Religious Education, Spanish, and Computing. At GCSE and IGCSE levels, I cover subjects such as Maths, English Language and Literature, Combined and Triple Science (Biology, Chemistry, Physics), Business Studies, Computer Science, Art and Design, Geography, History, Media Studies, Film Studies, Food Preparation and Nutrition, Religious Studies, Spanish, and Accounting.
For A-Level students, I provide tutoring in subjects including Film Studies, Health and Social Care, ICT and Information Technology, Journalism, Media Studies, Modern Languages (Spanish), Technology and Design, and Travel and Tourism. At the undergraduate level, I support academic writing, cinematics, media studies, research methods, and Spanish.
Regarding exam boards, I am familiar with major UK boards such as AQA, Edexcel, OCR, Cambridge IGCSE, and others, enabling me to tailor preparation to the specific syllabus and exam requirements. I also support students preparing for admissions tests such as 11+, 13+, SAT, and UCAS applications, along with TEFL exam preparation.
If there are specific papers or units you need support with, I can provide targeted lessons aligned with those assessments to ensure confidence and success.
Tutoring Approach:
My approach to tutoring is student-focused, flexible, and results-oriented. I understand that each learner is unique, so I tailor my teaching to suit individual goals, learning styles, and confidence levels. Whether students need help mastering core concepts, preparing for exams, or improving academic performance, I adapt my methods to best support their progress. I focus not only on exam success but also on building confidence, curiosity, and critical thinking skills. I hold a TEFL qualification, which complements my ability to support language learners effectively.
I incorporate a mix of interactive techniques, including technology-based tools, active questioning, step-by-step support and guided practice, and real-world applications to make learning both engaging and effective. I aim not just to improve grades, but to nurture curiosity, independent thinking, and a genuine love for learning. With over 9 years of tutoring experience, I know how powerful encouragement and personalised teaching can be in helping students overcome challenges and reach their full potential.
