Personal Description:
I am a retired professor looking to contribute to the success of young children. I have achieved everything in my life in terms of status and professional achievements. I have a strong passion for Maths and would like to make the learning of Maths a great success and a pleasurable experience for young children.
Teaching Experience:
I have 45 years of full-time teaching experience of Maths and physics in schools, colleges and universities. However for the past 13 years, I have been preparing students exclusively for the linear and modular GCSE Maths for the Edexcel, AQA and O&C examination boards with resounding success. I have the pleasure of tutoring those children who are borderline cases struggling to achieve grade 5 (old grade C) in the GCSE Maths. I have also the pleasure of tutoring high achievers doing higher GCSE Maths looking for top grades 8-9 (old grade A*) for easy admission to top universities in the UK.
Tutoring Approach:
1. My prime objective is to make Maths interesting, easy and simple to understand by all my tutees in a relaxed learning environment.
2. I make use of simple practical techniques to illustrate mathematical concepts which may otherwise be difficult to comprehend.
3. I try my best to motivate and inspire my tutees to do good quality Maths at the GCSE standard which unfailingly translates into improved exam grades.
4. I apply common sense strategies which enhance the learning process and help children achieve their full potential. Needless to say, tutoring of Maths is my absolute passion and I will continue to make a lasting impact on the way Maths is taught and perceived by young children in schools and colleges.
5. I have multiple modern approaches to solve the same mathematical problem in many different ways using conventional and non- conventional methods of learning and my pupil are at liberty to chose the one that they appreciate the most.. If you are looking for a targeted- performance Super Maths Tutor for the GCSE, search no further.
6. Any assignment will be accepted on the PAY AS YOU GO direct debit basis.
7. I charge £120 for a single 2-hours session and £70 for a single 1-hour session.
8. For a pupil doing Foundation Maths, I recommend one 2-hour sessions per week per Term to get grade 5 ( old grade C) and for a high performing pupil doing Higher Maths, I recommend one 2-hour sessions per week per Term to ensure a grade 8-9 ( old grade A*).

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:
Dear Parent / Guardian,
My name is Michael,
I'm a specialist teacher and tutor in Physics and Maths online, via Zoom.
I am a fully qualified (B.Sc., M,Sc., PGCE + enhanced DBS certificate), professional teacher and tutor of Physics, Maths and Science- with 25 + years experience of teaching to Key Stage 2, Key Stage 3, GCSE, IGCSE, AS / A2 - Level, as well as considerable experience as an examiner and Head of Physics Department.
For 16 years I have offered tuition from my home in Twickenham, Richmond and online.
Online works very well for most students.
Teaching Experience:
25 + years of classroom teaching and tutoring across the full ability range in KS2, KS3., GCSE and A-Level.
From 2014 I have developed my resources so that I can offer the same top quality tuition online to students anywhere in the UK and abroad as I can to face - to - face students.
Tutoring Approach:
By discussion with the student and parent I establish the learning needs of the student.
I work with the student to devise teaching and learning strategies to suit the student.
We use Zoom for conversation. I share my qualifications, my certificates, my CRB / DBS, my references, and discuss the student's educational needs, just as I would if face-to-face.
Together - the student and I - we compose our lesson notes which I write out and - at the end of the lesson - I scan the notes and send them to the student.
We can also use and share an interactive online whiteboard, just like a sheet of paper between us, and of course screen - sharing technology to bring our tuition notes to the home of the student.
We try to make the online learning experience and working relationship as similar as possible to a face - to - face learning experience.
I offer a top quality tuition package - friendly, patient and reliable - to meet the needs of the individual student who wants to improve her / his grades and is prepared to work hard.
Whether the student needs help with homework, coursework guidance, specific topics, revision strategies, or exam technique and practice at past exam papers, etc. . . help is available, and the student and parents WILL see improvement.
The fee covers not only the hour of tuition time, but also:-
pre-lesson preparation time;
providing personalised lesson notes at the end of each lesson;
setting homework or past exam paper;
marking homework or past exam paper;
providing online support between lessons;
providing feedback to students and parents.
So, when you consider the full package, you will see that each lesson means you get at least 2 hours of a specialist teacher's time and the benefit of his years of work and experience as a teacher. I believe that the tuition "hourly" fee is actually very good value for money and compares well with fees charged by similarly qualified and experienced tutors. I hope you will agree and I look forward to hearing from you..
I am available for tuition during the day as well as after school.
I am based in Whitton, Twickenham.
I offer tuition online.
Thank you for taking the time to read my profile
If you would like further details or to discuss your individual learning needs or to arrange an online Zoom consultation meeting please contact me.
Michael.

STUDENT FEEDBACK
"Umer explains things in a clear and concise manner and has made learning Physics ever so fun for me. He is punctual and continuously tailors his teaching style to suit the needs of the student he is teaching." - Kalpna, A2 Mathematics
"More often that not, students spend a considerable time studying unimportant things. Umer has the ability to channel the effort of his students in the right direction, resulting in effective exam preparation. If it wasn't for him, my son wouldn't have scored so well in his exams." - Carlos, A2 Mathematics, A2 Physics
"Umer often uses visual aids to explain abstract concepts. He takes time to understand the interests of his tutees and then uses something of their interest to explain complex phenomenon to them. This really keeps the child motivated and involved. Hats off to his teaching style." - Roma, AS Physics
"Umer has tutored me from grade 8 through to A level. He is knowledgeable, reliable, patient and always polite. He constantly maintains a positive approach and encourages me even when I perform badly. He also helps me organise my study schedule and remained a great source of motivation for me. I would blindly recommend him to anyone!". - Basa, Mathematics (grade 8, GCSE, AS, A2)
Tutoring Approach:
- The underlying factor for my success is my ability to change my style of teaching according to each student's ability
- I provide practical and lively examples to explain concepts in Maths, Physics and Chemistry
- I guide my students towards obtaining correct answers with a series of well-placed questions rather than providing them with information to `rote learn`
- Tipping exam questions is a common practice and I can do this nearer to exam period
- I am very patient and endeavour to remove the abstraction in mathematical concepts through simplification of seemingly complex procedures
- I am a strong believer in building a good relationship with my students
- I tend to focus on harder exam questions early on so that students are not overwhelmed with them nearer to exam time
- Providing students with visual representations in science works wonders in establishing their concepts
- Asking students to teach back what I taught them some weeks ago also helps in improving their communications skills besides serving as a revision tool
- Providing students a clear mental image of the process being taught when teaching sciences. For instance, explaining the concept of electric current by modelling it as a flow of water

Personal Description:
Hi there!
I am an experienced online Maths, Physics, Chemistry tutor, founder of two internet startups, graduate of Chemical Physics for a Master's degree at the University of Edinburgh (Honours + Edinburgh Award). Besides the fact that I have got 100% in Maths, Physics and 98% in Chemistry exams, I have also received many awards in scientific competitions as well as a Silver medal in the International Science Olympiad. With more than 1700 hours experience in SQA, OCR, AQA, Edexcel GCSE, A-Level and National 5, enhanced DBS and PVG checks, I can provide modern, professional and flexible online tutoring.
In my experience, online tutoring is as effective as in person, with the added flexibility that your busy schedule demands. It allows you to access the best tutors in the field nationwide instead of relying on local supply. I offer personalised lessons, more than just tutoring. I assess student's needs, accordingly customise study resources, teach the student, provide homework and send feedback after each lesson.
Why don't we have a trial online lesson and we would see how it goes? Most of my students, who agree to try it, continue having online lessons and you can find their reviews on my profile. If you are interested in my tuition, do not hesitate to contact me and we will arrange a lesson at a time that is the most suitable for you.
Here is some more information about me:
When did you start tutoring?
I have started tutoring one of my classmates while I was still in secondary school. It was a rewarding experience and it is quite interesting to go back to those times and compare how much has changed over the years in my lessons.
Why do you tutor?
I was always passionate about explaining Maths and Science to my peers back in school but I could have never imagined that it would become such a core part of my life. Tutoring is not just a source of income for me, it's something that makes me feel valuable in society, it allows helping so many amazing students around the UK to proceed in their future studies and careers. And it was never just theory and exams that we cover during our lessons, my tutoring sessions inevitably involve critical thinking and applying the knowledge in real life, thus I can contribute to students' lives even more.
What is your biggest tutoring success story?
Creating my own professional database of exam-type questions (the aforementioned startup) proved to be a success in my tutoring career since it allowed to spend more time and energy on creating quality resources for students and reuse them during different lessons. It was hard to see the value of the questions initially, but I have noticed that some students started to appreciate them so much that they no longer want to use a textbook during our lessons and I can focus more on their solutions rather than creating questions on the spot. Fast forward two years, 97% of my lessons are delivered using this system!
What is your biggest tutoring failure?
I could not distinguish a particular biggest failure while tutoring but there have been several cases when I was able to assess my tutoring, communication, preparation for lessons and enhance them accordingly. Such cases are responsible for the current structure of my lessons, communication with students and their parents, software and hardware that I use for tutoring and messaging. It really seems that every new challenge creates an opportunity for my services to be improved.
What are the students you love and hate to teach?
To be honest, I have not had any students that I hated to teach, they all are just different. With some pupils we have to thoroughly go through every concept in a topic and revise them later to build the knowledge up. However, that is not always the case with students who are already successful and aim for excellence. They usually solve provided questions quite quickly and I am just left checking answers and correcting silly mistakes. Therefore, I love tutoring every student, regardless of their skills and knowledge.
Who are you as a person?
I love reading books, I try to live a healthy life and be a responsible consumer. For 10 years I was a professional performer of dancesport, I was a swimmer with fins, a solo singer and participant in various science olympiads. I like reading articles, listening to talks and podcasts about how science and technology can be applied in both our lives and solving environmental problems.
What's your teaching style?
Students might decide by themselves how they want to learn during tutoring sessions, but otherwise, I always personalise my lessons according to their level and aims. There is always an option to go through a past paper or questions that a student did not understand at school or we can cover some topics fully by using a textbook. However, if they just want to revise a broader part of a subject or to cover something that they have missed at school, we can solve thousands of exam-like questions that I have got covered.
Whats your favourite place to teach?
Online
Teaching Experience:
I have been tutoring for more than 1700 hours as online, 1 to 1, Gojimo and Tutor Doctor tutor.
Tutoring Approach:
In my tutoring sessions with students we go through the topics where they struggle, solve past exam papers, I remind them the theory of the subject, and help completing homework questions, if required. I tend to explain the basic principles firstly, later I am developing students' s ability to solve problems by themselves starting from easy questions and building knowledge to thinking required solutions.

Personal Description:
I am a fully qualified teacher of Biology and Environmental Science to A Level, and Maths and the three Sciences to GCSE. I taught for many years in both the private and state sectors.
A semi-retired Environmental Scientist, Zoologist and Freshwater Biologist, I am also fluent in Spanish and German, having spent many years living in Latin American countries, working for German and British multinational companies.
Teaching Experience:
I taught GCSE Science (Biology, Physics, Chemistry) and Maths and A-Level & IB Biology and Environmental Science in both the state and private sectors for many years. I have tutored students in these subjects and levels during the past 10 years, with excellent results almost always surpassing the student's predicted grades..
I have also supported Spanish-language classes and individual students at GCSE level, and have worked on conversational Spanish with adult learners.
Tutoring Approach:
I believe the key to successful tutoring is to provide the help, support and encouragement the student needs. Unlike a classroom setting, the agenda is and must be driven primarily by the student. Thus my first task is always to help students identify their strengths and weaknesses, and what they want to get out of the tutor sessions. From this we jointly develop a strategy and plan of action. I then tailor my approach to fulfil the student's requirements.

Personal Description:
I am currently about to enter the 3rd year of my MPhys course at Durham University.
I have a passion for my degree and I think that the joy of physical science problem solving is one that can be easily lost in a school environment. With a more tailored approach to teaching, I hope to be able to give students a better understanding of how the tools that they learn work, which enables them to approach exams and further levels with more confidence, whilst also making the subject more enjoyable.
Teaching Experience:
I have experience tutoring for GCSE as an academic mentor at school with both maths and physics. I have also helped lower-level undergraduates with topics of concern.
Although I don't have lots of formal teaching experience, I love to help people understand new topics and have abundant energy to inspire students.
Tutoring Approach:
I believe that the subjects that I am looking to tutor are genuinely enjoyable if they are presented in the proper way and students are able to explore where their curiosity takes them. Which provides enjoyment and a great sense of achievement
For older students, however, I do not want to undermine the importance of being properly prepared for public examinations. The beauty of maths and physics is that the amount of rote learning is much less than other subjects and practice problem solving and understanding concepts is the key to success, this provides much more engaging revision. Although if you are struggling with teaching yourself a new topic or just didn't find that you 'got it' in class, it can be incredibly demoralising. This is where a second explanation or some targeted understanding can help out. moreover, with regular meetings, we can increase the efficiency of your study and I can teach you some tips on self-assessment and identifying in what manner you can help yourself, which is a vital skill the higher up the educational ladder you climb.
For younger students, my approach is to build a strong foundation of the basic skills whilst exploring more intricate concepts in a guided but ambitious manner. I believe that many students are capable of going far beyond the scope of their syllabuses, with the right guidance and encouragement.

Personal Description:
I have a Physics degree from Cambridge and still maintain an active and deep interest in the subject. Among my hobbies is close harmony singing - I run a mixed local singing group and have travelled widely in pursuit of musical excellence. I also appreciate the countryside and am happy to live, and walk, in a beautiful part of our country.
Teaching Experience:
My introduction to tutoring came through successfully helping my sons through their A-levels in Maths, Further Maths and Physics. The experience inspired me to look into tutoring as an alternative occupation, and, for the last couple of years, I have been pleased to take on other students. I now work part-time in software development but love teaching and find tutoring very rewarding. Generally, most of my students are working their way through their A-levels but I can also help out up to University level, either with preparation for entrance exams (e.g PAT, NSAA, STEP), or with some of the topics encountered in Maths / Physics / Engineering courses. I also do occasional work at GCSE level in these subjects.
Tutoring Approach:
I like to treat students as individuals with differing needs. For some the key is to develop a solid understanding - subject knowledge tends to build on itself, and those who miss basic points in class can often find themselves slipping behind, feeling lost and not able to cope. For others, it involves digging deeper into the subject to perhaps make connections that weren`t at first apparent.
At all levels, I have found that guided questioning and encouraging students to think through their own difficulties is very effective. It is very pleasing to see the spark of light when an idea hits home. And once the basics are established, of course, the key to success is practice, and the development of exam technique.

Personal Description:
I am a retired university lecturer in Mechanical Engineering with a PhD from City University of London and a BEng from a leading Chinese university. I also worked as a Senior Research Fellow in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Imperial College London. My entire career has been dedicated to academic research and higher education, and I have worked as a senior lecturer in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at a university in London for 23 years. For the past 8 years, I have been the Course Director for an Engineering Foundation course. I also acted as a liaison officer to a private institute specialising in providing university foundation courses, helping with course design and assessment moderation. I have been a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (FHEA) since 2006.
I believe that every student can succeed in Maths and Physics in both GCSE and A-level with the right guidance. My experience teaching foundation-year students means I am exceptionally skilled at identifying and bridging knowledge gaps, building confidence, and making complex concepts accessible, especially in Physics. I provide a structured, patient, and encouraging learning environment where students feel supported in asking questions and truly understanding the 'why' behind the equations.
Teaching Experience:
My teaching experience is primarily at the university level. As a senior lecturer, I taught Fluid Mechanics
and computational fluid dynamics modules to Year 2, Year 3, and advanced aerodynamics to Master's students. This high-level teaching gives me a unique perspective on the skills and understanding students need in Maths and Physics to thrive at top universities, which I integrate into my tutorial sessions.
As Course Director for the Foundation Year, I worked intensively with students who needed to strengthen their core maths and physics knowledge before starting their engineering degrees. This 8-year role honed my ability to break down complex topics into clear, logical steps for learners with varying starting points.
I have also supervised and assessed undergraduate and postgraduate projects, providing detailed feedback that pushes students towards higher-level thinking.
Tutoring Approach:
Achieving top exam grades demands more than just a solid grasp of mathematical and physical principles; it crucially hinges on strong, adaptable problem-solving skills.
As an experienced tutor and active examiner, I know firsthand the massive impact a well-structured, logically presented solution has on a marker. Clear, step-by-step working not only secures maximum marks but also helps students organise their thoughts under exam pressure and verify their answers efficiently at the end. My goal is to help students establish these vital presentation habits, turning logical structure into second nature.
My Tutoring Style & Approach:
Past Paper Integration: I regularly incorporate real past exam questions into our sessions to build familiarity with exam formats and question styles.
Examiner Insights: I demystify the marking process, showing students exactly what examiners look for and how to avoid common pitfalls.
Independent Practice: To reinforce learning, I assign a few hours of targeted homework after each session.
Rigorous Review: I mark and analyse all completed homework, providing detailed, constructive feedback. This allows us to target mistakes, close knowledge gaps, and continuously refine the exam techniques essential for reaching the highest grades.

Personal Description:
I have always enjoyed teaching Physics and Mathematics to young learners. The satisfaction and confidence a student receives on the successful outcome of 2 or 3 years studying in school is shared with us both and cannot be underestimated. Tutoring creates a very special kind of bond not always found in large class school environments so the one to one sessions are particularly rewarding.
Teaching Experience:
With over 10 years experience in one to one tuition, I also have over 30 years experience in class teaching. This includes teaching Physics and Mathematics at GCSE and A Level, general Science subjects up to GCSE, Applied Science at BTec, and Vocational Science. I keep up to date with all curriculum developments and any changes to exam requirements. I also offer tuition to students undertaking a Foundation degree in Mathematics, Physics or Engineering, and some related HND courses.
I have now left full-time class teaching to focus on individual tuition.
Tutoring Approach:
As a highly motivated teacher, I make Physics and Mathematics not only understandable, but also exciting. By transforming complex equations and scientific principles into clear practical insights, I inspire your confidence and develop your competence. Whatever your goals, my aim is to empower your learning and improve your results.
I am committed to turning complex concepts into crystal clear lessons, with a focus on learning through discovery. Each session is tailored to you- whether you're preparing for exams, tackling challenging coursework or simply aiming to deepen your understanding. My approach blends my extensive subject knowledge with motivational guidance to ensure you achieve results but also develop skills for your future success.
