I am a highly experienced tutor of A level (and GCSE) Physics and Chemistry with an additional specialism in GAMSAT, where I have many successful students. I provide support for students preparing for their entrance exams, and for their GCSE and A level exams. I also assist students with their UCAS applications and university interviews. I have much recent experience of teaching GAMSAT students, a specialism of mine. Recently I won a prize as the best new tutor at a tutorial agency, and last academic year my six A level Physics students achieved A*, A*, A*, A*, A* and A respectively. I am a top-rated GAMSAT tutor. My aim is to help my students to reach their full academic potential and get the grades they deserve. I believe in making sure that the underlying fundamental concepts are fully understood as this provides a solid foundation. There is nothing more rewarding than a student saying, "oh yes, now I get it". My tutoring style is to seek to identify the key areas where support is required and then patiently and sympathetically to help and encourage my tutees to master these areas. I have a post-graduate teaching degree and have taught in a number of Schools, Colleges and Universities. I am also a governor at two schools and chair of Council at one. I tutor individuals and also groups in schools, sixth form Colleges and Russell group universities. I was a lecturer at Imperial College for 26 years where I was an admissions tutor, senior tutor and postgraduate tutor and became deputy director of the Graduate school. I won the Rectors award for excellence in teaching at Imperial College twice. I have recent experience of tutoring and one to one teaching and also of tutoring in four central London schools, namely the City and Islington college, the Harris academy St Johns Wood, St Saviour's and St Olave' school and the Elizabeth Garrett Anderson school, Islington. I have also taught African student classes online. In my spare time I like to swim, exercise in the gym and kayak. I also love to travel and have lived and worked in Singapore, Sydney, Dallas and on a short placement in the Punjab. I support QPR more in hope than in expectation!

I am a full-time tutor, which means I teach morning to night- seven days a week. I usually start with the current topics that the 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... Following is the list of a few of the schools/colleges and universities, whose students I have taught. Eton College St. Paul`s School Charterhouse School Concord College Wetherby Senior School Harrow College Cardiff Sixth form College Chelsea Independent School Aiglon College Gems World Academy Wellington International School Raffles World Academy Jumeirah College London Business School LSE Birkbeck London Southbank Kings College Queen Mary University of Manchester City Business School London Middlesex University University of Leeds The University of Wollongong in Dubai University of Toronto University of British Columbia UCL The University of Leeds... and many more

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.

Hello! I'm an experienced tutor of maths, science and Spanish, and I want to help your child achieve their potential and stimulate a positive attitude towards learning. It's as simple as that. In my opinion, the root of successful tuition consists of three factors: the attention the tutor pays to the student's learning methods, the passion the tutor has for the subject and the enjoyment the tutor receives from the act of teaching. My teaching methods hinge on the recognition that every child is unique. There is no "one size fits all" solution to learning, and hence I establish as quickly as possible which of the various techniques works best for my students and then apply the relevant tutoring methods. As well as maximising academic progress, this approach gives you more value for money. I know that a concept fully understood and a method embedded and consolidated through practice will equip your child with the confidence and skills they need to tackle any question or problem successfully. I also know that the key to success is effective study skills and habits. I can show your child how to organise their learning into easy to revise chunks that work for them. This is a skill that will carry them through their whole education. Anyone who knows me well knows my passion to be the application of mathematics in real world situations, to help solve problems and improve lives. This thread runs through many of my endeavours, from my full time job at Transport for London, to a keen interest in architecture, physics and economics, and finally a love of the beautifully logical language of Spanish. So, what makes me qualified to teach maths, science and Spanish? As shown by my qualifications, I hold an A grade in both maths and physics A-Level with AQA and OCR, respectively. This knowledge is put to use daily in my job, where I use data analysis to improve public transport journeys for Londoners. I studied Spanish up to AS-Level, receiving an A grade, and lived in Spain for 9 months post university working as an English teacher. Immersing myself in the language allowed me to learn it from a new, colloquial perspective, broadening my capability. Being the son of a teacher, I've always been close to the profession, and have learnt a lot about the process of teaching and learning through discussion with and observation of my mother. I get a sense of happiness and pride from helping people do things that they couldn't do before, so have always sought out opportunities to teach. In Spain I worked in a primary school, teaching ages 4-12 a range of subjects in the students' non-native English. It was incredibly satisfying to see how far they progressed month to month, and when I left to return to England it was sad to say goodbye; we'd built up quite the relationship. In addition I tutored young adults individually to improve their English. My other relevant experience includes childcare and mentoring. My positive and energetic character allowed me to build up a rapport with the children that I minded in their own homes, out and about and on their family holidays abroad. I strove to be an outstanding and trusted role model, whilst allowing them to have fun. At university I was a peer mentor to architecture students in the year below me. My role was to support their mental wellbeing as they adapted to university life and the intense architecture degree. Despite being a relatively young tutor, my varied experience from over 700 sessions thus far has taught me a diverse range of skills and techniques that lend themselves to successful tutoring. I also think that my age makes me more relatable to students. In many cases I will understand and even remember the emotion behind their frustrations, allowing me to formulate a more considered and effective response. My attention to detail and thoughtful approach will provide your child with a considered tailor-made tutoring package. Meanwhile, my irrepressible passion for my chosen subjects coupled with a knowledge base formed by their intense study will facilitate productive and engaging tutoring. Finally, through my love of teaching I will try to inspire a fascination with learning in your child that will benefit them for the rest of their life. It's as simple as that.

I work as a Detector Scientist at Diamond Light Source in Harwell Campus, Didcot. I have a Ph.D. degree in Nuclear physics and I have worked at CERN, Geneva and GSI, Germany previously. CERN is European Centre for Nuclear Research and is the biggest laboratory in the field of Nuclear Physics. I use Science in day to day applications and hence I have a natural tendency for teaching. I have very good hold in the field of Electronics, Nuclear Physics, Quantum Mechanics, Classical Physics and Semiconductors. I promise to offer your child with excellent tuition in Physics with personal care. I believe in teaching Physics, Maths or Science in a practical way rather than theoretical. I will try my best that your child performs excellently in his/her A-level examination.

My higher qualifications are in Theoretical Physics (M.Phys) at Swansea University and Cosmology (M.Sc) at the University of Sussex. I have experience with tutoring during my A-levels and have helped people with their homework over the years. Physics is an approach to understanding the world, rather than a body of knowledge, via mathematical models that utilise assumptions that are both simplifying and reasonable. It is this union of two rigorous disciplines, science and maths, that I find so compelling about physics as a subject. I am offering to tutor students who are pursuing their A-level qualifications or equivalent in physics and maths. My lessons would supplement the material from school-based courses and progress seamlessly from what the student already knows. I am aware that self-directed learning is vital but can be time-consuming without any guidance. I've found that part of what makes this process so difficult is that many new concepts are often introduced together. It makes sense to focus on these ideas individually to clarify any source of confusion or misconceptions as they have applications in many areas of physics. I would ask my student about areas they found difficult before the first coaching session when I would go over prepared hand-out sheets covering some of the core concepts. I would then move on to answering problems such as past paper questions. My approach would be tailored to the learning style of the student to assist in the process of understanding new ideas for them. I would also be happy to share additional tips that will help them both before and after their level 4 qualifications, including report writing, time management skills, exam preparation and how to best use the resources at their disposal. These ancillary skills are vital for any career in Science Technology Engineering Mathematics (STEM).

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 have over three years and 1500+ hours of in-person and virtual teaching experience, and have mentored hundreds of students in that time. I am proficient in multiple subjects across their AP, GCSE, A-level, IB and international equivalents. 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:)

Are you tired of putting so much time and effort in revising but you still can’t seem to get the results? Spending endless hours behind your desk without proper structure, guidance, and continual assessment is pointless. As I approach 2 years of tutoring experience, I have gained the formula which has proven successful in transforming student performance. Not only am I a tutor, I’m a mentor who goes out of my way to ensure every student gets the most out of the time and effort they put in. So, are you ready to benefit from my lessons like many others have already? If so, what are you waiting for! Book a free trial lesson with me now and lets begin your journey on the path to success! A bit about myself: My name is Ihtishaam and I am a Chemical Engineering graduate from Imperial College London. I have a strong proven academic track record. In my A Levels, I studied Maths (A*), Chemistry (A*), Physics (A) & AS Economics (A) and got 10 A*-B in my GCSEs. I have 2 years of online tutoring experience and my greatest achievement so far has been boosting a student's grade from an E to an A in the matter of months! I also have some in-person tutoring experience from tutoring in a tuition centre, working with KS3, GCSE & A Level students in a classroom setting. I tutored 4-5 students at a time in Maths, Physics & Chemistry as I have a strong understanding of these subjects. During this time, I developed many transferable skills that can be applied to my sessions. I grew my communication skills by giving clear explanations to students when teaching them a concept, built a friendly relationship with my students, improved myself at scheduling the session, and developed my problem-solving and mentoring skills when challenged to tackle difficult questions from students. My approach: I was lucky enough to be tutored during my school years, and it helped with my performance in school massively, so I know how important it is to have a great tutor! Every student is different, thus the lessons are personally tailored to cater to the individual needs of each student. For those students who are more independent, they will be supported with any specific problems/weaknesses they have in the subject, along with exam technique so they have the best chances of success on exam day. On the other hand, with students who have fallen behind in class and struggle to grasp the subject in its entirety, they will be handheld in every step by being taught concepts from the bottom up, allowing the student to fill gaps in their knowledge and regain a solid understanding of class material. The lessons are designed to help students in overcoming difficulties and uncertainties in the subject, and simplify concepts that can initially be seen as complex. As a tutor with 2 years of experience and having taught numerous students, I am very understanding and patient, and I'm happy to go over the same thing as many times as it takes to make sure the concept is understood properly. I am known to be someone who can explain things clearly, and I bring this trait to my lessons. Previous students of mine have seen tremendous improvements in their grades and have thoroughly enjoyed my approach to teaching. My lesson environment is aimed to be as friendly and engaging as possible, and is definitely no place to judge anyone. Sound interesting to you? Book a free trial lesson now!

I have been giving full time one on one English language courses every summer since 2014 for a tuition company. I have been teaching GCSE and A level Maths and science lessons part time during the rest of the year and am now hoping to do it full time. Many of my students have gone from struggling to get a C to getting an A in their exam. Many of my students parents have found me from word of mouth but I have recently moved from Bristol to London so starting my client base again. I have a degree in law which I completed recently and did a physics degree at UCL. The summer courses I gave also included looking after young students who lived at my house during the course.
