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 a fully qualified teacher with 20 years of experience teaching English at KS3, 4 and 5 level, both in the state and independent sector. I am also a mother of three children who are now all grown up and on their way to `bigger` things, but I understand the concerns parents may have about the progress of their children. At school, in a class of 15 to 30, it is very difficult for the teacher to give each pupil the individual attention they need and deserve. This is what I enjoy about tutoring: it is 100% child focused. I offer tutoring on a one-to-one basis at your home or in the small classroom I have at my own house. I specialise in tutoring for the 11+ entrance exams as well as specific English tuition up to GCSE level. I am also an official GCSE exam marker for AQA English and as such have an in-depth understanding of how the exam board awards marks. I have gained experience in administering the 11+ entrance exams in the independent school I worked at, as well as marking the papers. With regards to the 11+ preparation, I cover all areas: Maths, English, verbal and non-verbal reasoning. Tutoring allows me to personalise all the planning and teaching to the needs of the young people I am working with. After an initial assessment, I can identify where the areas of strength and areas of development lie. I then tailor the lessons precisely to the needs of the pupil. By working on the areas of development, it is very clear to see where there is progress and parents will be informed and kept up to date. My approach is friendly and pupils do not feel `stressed` in my presence. Parents often comment that their children enjoy the lessons and I ensure that my pupils receive plenty of praise so they really feel a sense of achievement. I am experienced in teaching and marking various exam boards, including IGCSEs: AQA, Edexcel, CIE. I have a proven track record of enabling pupils to achieve outstanding results, exceeding their predicted potential.I have achieved success as a Head of Department and also as a Director of Teaching and Learning, when I empowered other teachers to be successful classroom practitioners. In short, I have years of successful teaching and tutoring experience.

Hi, My name is Yousef, and I have been teaching Maths and Physics online for over five years. Born and educated in London, I attended Alleyn’s School in Dulwich, where I achieved AAA in Maths, Physics, and Biology at A-level. I went on to study Mechanical Engineering at Newcastle University, graduating with first-class honours [BEng]. During my degree, I specialised in high-voltage electromechanical systems, designing a battery pack and control system for the university’s racing team. After university, I worked as a Systems Integration Engineer in the powertrain research and development team at one of the UK’s leading start-ups. However, I decided to pursue a more flexible and rewarding path, founding my own tutoring business to achieve location-independent earnings. Over the last five years, I have tutored for several leading agencies, and as of September last year, I launched my own platform, Simplified Maths. Through this platform, I provide comprehensive revision and learning resources tailored to each student’s needs. My Teaching Philosophy - I strive to create a relaxed and friendly atmosphere in my lessons, where students feel comfortable challenging themselves, making mistakes, and asking questions. My goal is to ensure that students have all the resources they need to succeed both during and outside of lessons. This includes examples covered in class, tailor-made worksheets, and recorded explanations and demonstrations to review in their own time. Free Consultations - I offer free, no-commitment consultations to all prospective students. This gives us an opportunity to get to know each other and ensures that my services align with your needs.

Note: Due to the ongoing exam season, my teaching calendar has unfortunately been booked out until the end of May, and I am unable to accept lesson requests from new students until then. I really apologize this, and I will update my availability as soon as possible. Hi! I graduated from the University of Warwick with a BSc. in 2024, and from the International Baccalaureate in July of 2021, with 43/45 points and Higher Levels in Mathematics, Physics and Economics. My Standard Level subjects were Psychology, English and French. I've been teaching in both virtual and classroom environments for approximately three years now, and have grown considerably over that time. Whenever I mentor someone, I try and take a hands-on approach, pacing the material appropriately and answering questions in the process. I'm proficient in a range of digital teaching tools, and am more than willing to adapt to new ones. I'm also extremely attentive to my learners, and try and tailor my teaching methodologies to their individual requirements. Outside of teaching, I love reading, writing and playing the guitar:)

Hi there! I have a MSc in theoretical physics at Imperial College. I graduated from the University of Bath in 2015 with a first class degree in Physics, and spent a year on placement working at a Laser facility in Oxford as part of my degree. Whilst undertaking my postgraduate studies I'm residing at my family home in St Johns Wood and am willing to travel far and wide to reach a wide range of tutees. I grew up in London and attended Highgate School and UCS where I achieved 9 A/A* grades at GCSE and A-levels in Physics (A), Maths (A), and Economics (B). Whilst attending school I received some personal tuition, which was a great help and took vast amounts of pressure from my shoulders; allowing me to pursue extra-curricular activities. This was extraordinarily beneficial when it came to applying to University, and provided a solid base for me to chase my academic dream. In my leisure time I like to spend time broadening my knowledge outside of physics, taking a keen interest in philosophy and literature; utilising the Imperial’s substantial offline and online resources to accommodate my interest. In my year off between secondary education and University, I traveled to China for two months to study Kung-Fu. Before heading out to the far east, I took a beginners course in mandarin so I could communicate with the locals, to make the experience more fulfilling and enjoyable. Although Physics is one of my main interests and the topic of discussion in most scenarios of my day-to-day life, I feel it is important to find some separation and pursue other areas of interest. Before damaging both my knees, a few years ago I formed a Sunday league football team with a few old friends that I help run. I am a keen film fan, an avid follower of the comedy circuit, and somewhat of a home chef. Whilst studying in Bath I volunteered for a programme called 'Lab in a Lorry', an organisation I found through the university. They tour the country in a large mobile unit kitted-out with several experiments and interactive demonstrations to bring science and mathematics to pre-GCSE children with the aim of peaking their interest. It is a joint venture of the Institute of Physics and the Schlumberger Foundation. I was able to volunteer several times and was privileged to be able to teach a wide range of age groups, which was vital experience for me as a soft introduction to teaching. During my time teaching I ran several practical demonstrations for the kids ranging from an introduction to fibre optics and their use in modern medicine and surgery, to an insight into polarisation of electromagnetic radiation and how it alters how we see our Sun. These experiences were extremely fulfilling, and encouraged me to become a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) ambassador whilst on placement in Oxford. This involved running several outreach programmes at local (and not so local) schools, with the intention of making science fun and more relevant to young children. Myself, accompanied by several other placement students, exposed scientific thinking and novel ideas to children of ages 6 to 12. Some of these activities included: telescopic observation of the moon, an insight into the specific electromagnetic dependent appearance of galaxies, the formation of stars and other stellar activities, as well as several other aeronautic and space based demos. I began giving private tuition in 2015 and have expanded my client base tenfold since starting out. My students have seen vast improvement under my supervision, with an average grade jump of over two grade boundaries. I have taught students from GCSE level all the way up to final year university students. The structure of my lessons is as follows: I will dedicate a third to one half of the allotted time to an overview of the method or theory that is to be covered in the session. The time dependence directly related to the difficulty and complexity of the subject at hand. This subset of time will be filled by an interactive slideshow covering the topic and basic examples of applications to everyday life. After this, I will introduce a few simpler example questions, that I will run through with my student in detail before handing the reigns over to them to answer multiple exam-style questions; for which I will give hints and review the necessary material before going through the method of the marker. This is a tried and tested successful technique. Upon approach of the examination period, the tutoring sessions will change to entirely question and answer based conditioning exercises. These will be example questions taken from previous papers and my personal stash of textbooks and notes. This method of teaching has worked extremely well with me over the last 10 years, and also with my previous tutees; and I have full faith that it will do wonders for future students too.

***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.

I graduated from Physics Education. I have a degree of BSc. I have been tutoring and teaching physics since then. After graduating university I started to teach Physics in an institute which prepares children for national university entrance exams and secondary schools entrance exam. I both taught in the class and tutor during this period. I had students from the age of 12 to 19. That period taught me the needs of students who prepare for the exams. After this institution I worked at three schools which are all IB(International Baccalaureate) schools as IB Physics teacher. At these schools I taught IGCSE topics for pre IB classes as well. I worked as IB coordinator assistant in one of the schools. Since I have started to work at schools I have had students who study for international exams such as SAT, IB. I have also mastered A-Level topics. I have lots of students who study or work all around the world. For example One of my students made me her idol and became a physics teacher. And this year she was accepted to Nanotechnology post graduate program in Germany. I am proud of her. All of my IB students were accepted different universities in Europe and USA with their predicted grades last year. Everyone has different learning style. First 2 or 3 lessons I will discover your learning style. Then I’ll teach you according to your learning style. Some people need details. Some want to learn shortcuts. Others need proof. To conclude I differentiate the lesson according to your needs. I’ll lead you with the help of my experience. I am both genial and patient person. These characteristics are really important while teaching. Because students should feel comforted to ask the things that they do not understand.

I am a highly experienced tutor with over 7 years experience teaching and tutoring in private and public schools, as well as privately and online, in the UK, France and Spain. I am familiar with all major exam boards, and have been frequently noted for the passion and rigor with which I introduce and teach my subjects. I am a firm believer in the idea that education should be available to all, and that there is is student without potential. I thus make a point to help the student see the attraction of the subject. My methodology is focused on ensuring immersion in both the more theoretical and abstract principles of the subect and their application through practice and concrete examples. I aim to get the student applying themselves consistently as soon as possible, keeping a constant eye out for areas for improvement. I studied at the University of Warwick, Sciences Po, and the Sorbonne. I have worked as a teacher, tutor, translator, researcher, as well as business research and charity. I am fluent in 6 languages: English, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and German. I am also a teacher of Latin and Greek.
