I am currently a business lecture at UCB , however, I have experience of teaching primary, secondary, 11 plus and assignment support at HE level. Teaching has always been a passion and I am extremely dedicated to my job role. I enjoy all types of teaching and have taught all ages and in all types of environments. Alongside teaching English, maths, and science, etc, I also like to focus on the child’s holistic development which I believe is pivotal. I also do private tutoring online on one to one basis and group sessions. I like to teach my children through joyful interaction which assists them in reaching their full potential and achieving above and beyond their level of expectations. I have seen dramatic improvements from children who started off with very little or no English-speaking skills at all in becoming the highest achievers, furthermore, receiving recognition and awards in their educational institutions. I am very soft-hearted towards the children I teach, nevertheless, this does not mean that they can get away with not completing their studies. I am extremely flexible and can easily adapt quickly to new situations. You will find me highly empathic towards the children and very understanding, regardless of their age. All people big or small should be treated with the utmost respect. I do my best to dedicate my spare time to supporting charity events, group talks, and teaching children.

I am an experienced tutor with 10 years of tutoring experience, and I am also a qualified teacher. I have taught maths, chemistry, and physics to A-level and biology up to GCSE. I also tutor iGCSE, I.B, and Pre-U exams for all those mentioned subjects. For the past 4 years, I have run retake courses at A-level, improving student's grades, and providing one-on-one online lessons focussed on matching the students’ specific academic requirements to help them reach their full potential. This has resulted in students improving their grades from D’s and C’s to A’s/A*s. I studied for my PGCE at UCL with a specialism in Physics and Maths and I taught in both the private and state education sectors before becoming a full-time tutor. I am a patient teacher who has worked with children of varying abilities with the objective of giving them the confidence to apply themselves to subjects that they may have found difficult in the past. I have a friendly, understanding disposition which puts the student at ease and helps to make their lessons something to look forward to rather than a chore. I am available during weekday evenings during term time and have some limited slots within the day. During the holidays I work weekdays.

Studied Chemistry at Edinburgh University then Imperial College up to PhD level and began tutoring undergraduate students as part of it. Now, I teach A-level Chemistry plus some GCSE/iGCSE, college and university students. As I only tutor Chemistry and 90% of my work is A-level, I know the three syllabuses (AQA, OCR A and Edexcel) and past papers inside out. I also have my own website dedicated to A-level Chemistry and study methods. I have been tutoring Chemistry in Surrey and London, initially part time from 2006-2013 and since 2014, I have been a full time tutor. Every year I have a range of students with different abilities and from different schools. Many want to go on to study Medicine and need an A, and almost all of them will achieve this. Others students are doing okay and looking to improve their grades and some will really be struggling. If the students follow what I recommend and work hard I can guarantee that they will improve and so will their grades. It is just a process, do the right things at the right time and slowly the results will improve. I have examples of students who were failing in their mocks and almost miraculously got an A or B in June. While this is rare, it has happened several times over the past few years. When tutoring I focus on a few things: simplifying concepts and helping the student understand, helping them with self-belief and motivation (many students think Chemistry is impossible or they can’t do exams or they’re not good enough) and constantly looking at study methods and exam technique. The mindset and study methods are vital, in my opinion even more so than the Chemistry. If they get this right, then they will improve, they have to, it's impossible not to! And these skills are transferable to any subject and University. From experience, schools do not help with this at all, they focus only on the subject material. Most students are good enough to get a B or better and often need help seeing this and being shown how to actually get that grade. If they haven't done it before, who are they supposed to know what to do? After doing it once, it becomes a whole lot easier!

I recently graduated from Cambridge with a 2:1 in Natural Sciences and would love to share my passion for learning with others by supporting students to achieve their full potential. During my time as a UCAS tutor, I was able to clearly explain advanced scientific concepts by adjusting my teaching methods to suit the unique learning style of each student and applied my TEFL qualification to support English second language students, all of whom went on to receive offers from Russell Group Universities. Whilst tutoring an 11-year-old boy in Maths, he raised his average grade from a C to an A. Having been elected as the Welfare Officer for the Cambridge University Water Polo Team, I emphasise the importance of mental health and aim to promote the emotional wellbeing of all my students. My pet Labrador Goldie may also make occasional drop-ins in the background of tutoring sessions to provide a little well-needed dopamine. :)

I have a BSc in Chemical Engineering (2.1) with a Masters degree (Distinction) in Natural Gas Engineering from a UK University. I have been fortunate to work as a Process Engineer in one of the largest Oil and gas companies in the world for 10 years. Whilst practicing engineering, I was also a part time private Tutor; teaching and mentoring students in Maths, Further Maths, Physics, Chemistry and some Engineering modules at University Level. I am accustomed with in-depth knowledge of UK school curriculum and necessary skills required to pass UK 11+/12+/13+, GCSE, IGCSE, SATS, and A-Level Examination (AQA, Edexcel, OCR), and I have been preparing students for these exams for the past 20 years. I discovered my natural calling is to impact humanity with the knowledge and passion that I have, as a result I left the Engineering sector a year ago so as to allow me have more time with students. Impacting the lives of students positively gives me fulfilment and joy. I love to share knowledge and empower the younger generation. I am skilled at conveying complex mathematical and scientific concept in a simple and concise manner and I am an advocate of lifelong Learning. I have Tutored/Mentored over 200 students for Medical and Engineering/Technology related courses across various universities in the UK, USA, Canada and Africa in the last 15 years. 96% of my (Maths, Further Maths, Chemistry and Physics) students get A or A* score in GCSE, IGCSE and A-levels Exams every year. Asides being a Tutor, so many students have been motivated with my wealth of experience and teaching methods. My support has helped many students get scholarships in Top Universities in the UK, Canada and US; and my passion is centred around improving children's confidence in Mathematics and science subjects so that they can have good foundation. I constantly engage my students with effective motivating conversations that help them discover their skills and abilities that can enhance confidence. Some students only require a good Tutor that can motivate them to success. I have a strong passion for success, and that has helped me personally. I always get good result when I am dedicated to my work. I want every student I teach to excel even beyond their expectations.

I prefer to build strong, personal relationships with students, because I believe personal relationship is foundation to student success. The more associated the student feels, the more teacher earns respect and consideration, the key ingredients for students to learn well. I teach to the student's strength that helps me to minimize the student weaknesses. I always listen and communicate early and often with parents, that helps me to map a better plan for success. I always believe that, the better lesson planning by tutor leads to student success. I always plan my every session keeping these 6 points in my mind. 1. Outline learning objectives 2. Develop the introduction 3. Plan the specific learning activities (the main body of the lesson) 4. Plan to check for understanding 5. Develop a conclusion 6. Create a practical timeline I have got Engineering degree qualification, which makes me the most appropriate tutor for mathematics subject. I have studied as well trained the simplest mathematics as well as complex one. So, I know the subject's concepts, ideas and problems inside out. I can discuss and introduce the rigor of real-life applications. I can make learning relevant to students' interests, thus create more students who actually care about what they are learning. I am very much aware of National Curriculum of UK and know about the key stages and the assessments, the student would go through after completing each key stage. I always prefer to discuss child's progress with his/her parents by the end of each assessment. That would assist me to meet the expectations of parents.

***Please confirm the times by messaging me as there is a technical issue on tutor house platform which shows the incorrect availability. I apologise for the inconvenience and I am trying to fix this issue asap. Please message me in the meantime, thank you so much and apologies again*** I am currently pursuing a PhD in Physics at University College London in Quantum Computing, Quantum Information.Prior to this, I have completed MSc in Applied Mathematics and Computing from Imperial College London and an undergraduate degree in Physics from King's College London. My academic journey through some of the UK’s top institutions has provided me with a strong and varied foundation in mathematics and the sciences, equipping me with in-depth knowledge and a solid grasp of these subjects. At A-level, I studied Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics, which formed the bedrock of my passion for STEM. Over time, I have developed a genuine enthusiasm for helping others achieve their academic goals, sharing both my expertise and my insights from personal experiences. My focus lies in online tutoring for A-level students in Physics, Mathematics, Computing, and Further Mathematics, and I am also available to assist with university entrance exams and assessments, including the Physics Aptitude Test (PAT), the Natural Sciences Admissions Assessment (NSAA), and the Engineering Admissions Assessment (ENGAA). With over six years of tutoring experience, I have honed a teaching style that is flexible, supportive, and tailored to the individual needs of each student. As a tutor with an enhanced DBS check, I am fully certified to work with students and provide a safe, supportive learning environment. I offer both online sessions and, for those nearby, in-person tutoring at my home. Over the years, I have developed a deep understanding of how to support students effectively through personalized learning. I prioritize identifying the learning style of each student—whether they are auditory, visual, kinesthetic, or intrapersonal learners—and adapting my methods to best suit them. By incorporating these techniques, I help students engage with the material in ways that resonate with them, which not only boosts their understanding but also builds confidence in their abilities. Tutoring Experience I have an enhanced DBS check and have been working as tutor for 6+ years. My approach to tutoring is based on building a solid foundational understanding of each topic before advancing to exam-specific preparation. In our sessions, I start by ensuring that the core concepts are well-understood and that students have a thorough grounding in the subject matter. This may include revisiting fundamental principles and discussing topics in detail, so students develop a comprehensive understanding and can apply their knowledge to complex questions. Once students are confident with the basics, I introduce exam material that progressively challenges them. This dual focus on fundamentals and application ensures that students not only understand the theory but also acquire the skills needed to excel in exams. I place strong emphasis on developing exam techniques, covering time management, question interpretation, and linking knowledge to answer questions accurately and with the appropriate level of detail. In addition to A-level tutoring, I support students who are preparing for university entrance exams in STEM subjects, such as the PAT, NSAA, and ENGAA. With personal experience navigating competitive exams and applications, I offer insights into what these assessments entail and the most effective preparation strategies. I can also assist with personal statements, helping students highlight their strengths, achievements, and genuine interest in their chosen fields to make a compelling case for admission. Currently, I am working on a website designed to help students prepare for A-level Physics and university entrance exams. Drawing from my own experiences and expertise, I aim to create an accessible platform with resources, practice questions, and guides that can support students in reaching their academic goals outside of tutoring sessions. Tutoring Approach I give online tuitions. I base my approach to tutoring after evaluating what type of learner they are, whether that is auditory, visual, kinaesthetic or an intrapersonal learner. I can tailor my teaching to meet their needs. Additionally, my teaching method involves providing a strong foundation on the topics first, then giving suitable exam material to further the understanding of the student, ensuring that they have the skills needed for the exams. I can go through the exam techniques in detail so they can link back what they have learnt to answer questions to appropriate detail. My goal as a tutor is to inspire students and help them unlock their full potential, not only by improving their grades but by fostering a genuine interest in the subjects they study. I am committed to making learning a rewarding experience and guiding students towards academic success with tailored support, proven techniques, and a passionate approach to teaching.
