I am a graduate from Imperial College London and Westminster School with a degree in Mechanical Engineering MEng and currently undertaking research at Imperial College London in the fields of green hydrogen and thermofluids. In my spare time I play basketball and I also participate in a number of musical societies. Instruments that I play include cello, piano, guitar, and singing. I have been tutoring for six years and find the process of improving a student’s understanding very rewarding. Over this period I have helped approximately fourty students gain entry to higher education, that are currently studying STEM subjects at top universties such as Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial College, UCL and many more. The vast majority have obtained As and A*s at A-Level. I also tutor several degree level students, five of which have just been awarded First Class and Upper Second Class honours in their respective subjects. I tutor at all stages from primary to degree level and focus on a wholesome learning experience. I always invite my students to ask questions and attempt problems by themselves, before explaining a solution, and subsequently work through similar problems with them step by step until they have grasped the content. The main emphasis in my lessons is to develop sound conceptual understanding, followed by fluency in answering practise questions, thus targeting excellent performance in exams. Looking forward to meeting you!

Hi! I'm Collette and I've been teaching ever since the age of 16, when I began teaching music lessons to local children, during my A levels, as my school music teacher recommended me to them. I think what my pupils and students enjoy most about my lessons is how much they are treated as individuals; I tailor my teaching to suit the personality and strengths of the learner. I believe everyone has different strengths - my job is to find out what these are, and use them to build the learner's confidence and enthusiasm for whatever they are trying to achieve. Parents repeatedly report that their child's general wellbeing and confidence is hugely benefitted by my approach to their lessons. I achieved all grades up to and including Grade 8 Distinction piano then ABRSM Advanced Certificate piano, plus Grade 8 Merit classical guitar (and many Distinctions in previous grades) as a child. After school, I studied in London, graduating from King's College, London with a BMus (Hons) Music Degree (with piano lessons at Royal Academy of Music, London) and then a Primary PGCE (Postgraduate Certificate of Education teaching qualification) from the Institute of Education, London (part of University College London). I've taught in a wide variety of capacities to children and adults, throughout my career, both face-to-face and, over the last few years, online, including: mainstream primary, nursery and pre school teaching; specialist music classroom teaching; peripatetic music lessons; home-based music lessons (piano, classical guitar, theory, beginner singing) and school tutoring; TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) teaching to homestay and online students. Please contact me if you would like further information. I am extremely adaptable in my one-to-one/small group teaching, and will always guide students in an encouraging and kind manner. As a mum to an 18 year old, I also know what parents and children need from their tutor. So, whether you are 4 or 94, I will be happy to help you achieve your potential. Looking forward to meeting you soon!

NOW ACCEPTING FREE TRIALS! Who am I? I tutor in the London area teaching Maths and Science for GCSE, A-level, Pre-U, IB and other international exams. Currently studying for my PhD at Imperial College London, I work alongside world leading academics at the university, along with engineers at Rolls Royce plc. I tutor because I am enthusiastic about quality education, how education improves our understanding of mathematics and the sciences, and seeing my students academically thrive and flourish. What have I done? ● 11 years’ experience in the education of Mathematics and Science; especially the creative teaching of small groups, school classes and individuals. ● Currently studying for a PhD in Mechanical Engineering at Imperial College London. My PhD involves working with Rolls Royce plc to develop the next generation of nuclear reactors. I am researching how the transport of neutrons and gamma rays affect the heating inside a nuclear reactor core. ● MSc in Advanced Nuclear Engineering and BEng in Materials Science and Engineering from Imperial College London. Winner of the Nuclear Institute Master’s Distinguished Performance Prize. ● Ex-Head of Physics at a renowned London Sixth Form College. ● Past research experience at the Culham Centre for Fusion Energy and Paul Scherrer Institute, Switzerland. What is my tutoring experience? ● Tutor of Mathematics and Science of GCSE, A-level and undergraduate-level clients. I tutor students of ALL levels with a guaranteed history of student grade improvement. ● Prepared domestic and international students for entrance exams and applications to top-UK universities, some of which were accepted to Oxford and Cambridge Universities. ● Teaching methods used to enable SEND students to obtain top A-level grades. What is my teaching experience? ● Teacher of Physics and Mathematics for A-level, BTEC and GCSE students. ● Focus on incorporation of technology such as Onenote and Classroom with education for blended learning and data driven student progress during the COVID 19 pandemic. ● Organisation of the physics department including curriculum planning, practicals, mock examinations and student interventions. What is my tutoring philosophy? Tired of going through the same exercises over and over, without ever understanding how or why it is done this way? Feel like your schoolteacher is filling your head with useless knowledge without helping you see the wider picture? I can help! My approach to learning is a practical one. Solving real-life problems where Mathematics and Science can be applied is the best way for my students understand the far-reaching impact that Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry has on our planet and beyond. Problem solving allows students at all levels to focus on the methods, theories and skills which form the foundations of the scientific method whilst giving them the practical experience needed to tackle problems outside of academia. At the end of the day, the goal of tuition is to reach and exceed my student's targeted grades. We will focus on how we can attain these grades through applying critical thinking skills to analyse, understand and answer examination questions so that a student can maximise their potential. My teaching style is focused on the understanding of course material and exam technique which has proved extremely successful over the years. I make learning fun and efficient by tailoring each lesson to the learning style and interests of the student to boost concentration and retainment. I also teach guitar as a hobby! If you have any questions whatsoever, please open a conversation with me by sending me a message enquiry.

Hello! I am an English Teacher, having taught English Literature and Language to a wide range of students from years 7 to 11. I have recently graduated from the Teach First programme with distinction, which has a mission of ending educational inequality in the UK by training great teachers and putting them where they're most needed. I taught for two years in a secondary school in Yorkshire. I have also taught at an international school in Spain, where I got on so well with the students that I ended up tutoring some parents in speaking Engilsh as well! My most recent school uses the AQA English GCSE, so I am very familiar with this specification. However, I am confident in teaching the variety of skills needed to approach most specifications used in the UK. Just ask! On top of this hands-on teaching experience, I have also studied educational psychology. In 2020, I gradauted with a first from Bournemouth University with a degree in Psychology. In the final year of this degree, after my year of teaching in Spain, I chose to specialise in educational psychology. This gave me a great insight into how much of an impact you can have when you address each student's individual needs. Transferring this to my tutoring, I always make sure to tailor the sessions to each student. Every student is different, and therefore needs a unique approach to their learning goals. I love teaching in a classroom to a large group, and thrive on the the spontaneity of having so many people focused on the same idea or task. However, I have realised that there is just as much satisfaction in coaching a student 1 to 1. I often teach students who I wish I could teach by themselves to see what they could really achieve with my undivided attention. For this reason, I have turned to tutoring so that I can help people master a variety of English skills. I have already helped my online students to achieve and surpass their predicted grades set by their teachers at school! My intention for my lessons is to encourage independent mastery as soon as possible. I will provide support for you to practice the skills you're looking to improve but I recognise that the aim of tutoring is to improve to a point of not needing it as soon as possible! I follow the tried and tested method of good quality models, joint practice, then independent practice. Book in a chat and let's see what I can help you with!

Do you want the advantage of real world experience? Having worked in the creative world of advertising for 20 years since graduating from one of the world's renowned universities, I have been teaching students from over 10 different countries across the Middle East and the UK. I have successfully tutored young learners, adults and undergraduates, both privately and in colleges to improve, strive and succeed. After graduating from University of the Arts London with a BA (Hons) in Communication I went on to work as an Art Director and then later as a Creative Director in advertising where I managed, art directed and wrote advertising scripts for radio and TV and digital media. Along the way, I also started training clients for their marketing and design requirements. I worked in London for fifteen years and in 2008 went to Dubai as a Creative Director for a multinational advertising agency. In 2012 I got married and went traveling with his wife and started teaching English with Dubai as a base. That same year I got a post teaching the academic English course to undergraduates at the Dubai branch of Shiraz University, one of Iran’s most prestigious universities. This was an incredibly challenging job with large classes of terrifyingly bright young adults studying subjects as diverse as Engineering and Architecture to Finance and Chemistry! A baptism by fire like no other. Following that, I instructed at three colleges in Dubai as a freelancer. I ended up specializing in Business English, particularly in the areas of presentation skills and writing. I studied the IELTS exam and became the prime instructor for this at another college in Dubai. The classes were huge, but a lot of fun! Once a week the class was divided into a smaller Academic group, which I also planned lessons for and taught. These students were predominantly medical professionals looking to work for the NHS in the UK. Since returning to London from Dubai in 2016, I have been teaching as a freelancer in London colleges as well as privately. Having worked in the advertising industry for almost twenty years, I feel this gives me a natural edge in the education field because of my ability to effectively communicate difficult ideas and concepts in a fun and engaging and above all, memorable way. My approach is very student – centered as a result. Online, The Red Ink is now an invaluable resource for English language students looking to take the IELTS exam as well as a forum for writing and general English language knowledge.

I have been teaching since 2000, of which 1 year as a supply teacher in Greater-London. I have a large collection of animations, 3D-visualization, AR and VR apps about all sorts of biological processes. As a classroom teacher, I always tried to activate the pupils by using alternative methods, rather than just talking in front of a powerpoint, however, sometimes this is necessary too. After a huge recalibration, I decided to become a full-time biology tutor, both in the UK and Belgium, exclusively online. This way, I get to spend a little more attention to my family and myself. I'm also completing a football coach course. In the past, I was a windsurf instructor at Camp Moosilauke in the US. I hold a degree in first aid as well.

I am a native English speaker with ten years' of tutoring experience. I specialise in the Humanities, English Language learning for non-native speakers, and teaching students with special educational needs, particularly dyslexia and dyspraxia. However, I have taught every subject at some point! Qualifications: I am TEFL certified, with a cum laude (distinction) Master's in International Relations, a published author and ghost writer of two books. Professionally I have a background in public affairs and corporate communications - but my lessons are definitely not corporate or tedious! My students: I tend to focus on teenage & adult learners. However, I am willing to take on younger students after discussion with the parents although it is more difficult in an online environment! If you are looking for some extra help with a humanities subject, or you're a student looking to improve their writing skills for their upcoming exams, or a non-native speaker working in an international environment where English is required, then I can help you. My style: My lessons focus on my student’s needs and goals, so that the materials are engaging and relevant to them. My style is fun, practical and usually informal. The trick for me is to make the lessons fun, so that students look forward to them, and implement a clear system to display progress along the way.
