I am a highly experienced tutor of A level (and GCSE) Physics, Chemistry and Maths with an additional specialism in GASMAT, 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 a lot of 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 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 Saviours and St Olave' school and the Elizabeth Garrett Anderson school, Islington.
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!

My name is Samuel and I graduated from Cambridge University in 2007 with a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Electrical and Electronic engineering. In addition to this, I hold a Professional Tutoring Certificate (Distinction awarded) and I am a fully qualified teacher too. I have a passion for teaching/tutoring Mathematics and Sciences (mostly Physics, Chemistry and Biology) to GCSE and A-level students. I have mentored and tutored students from an assorted array of backgrounds since 2002, helping some to get to Oxbridge and Ivy League universities and helping them with interview preparations when requested.
My teaching journey started in 2002 when I took a year out working as an assistant/support teacher actively involved in mentoring, lesson planning and marking. I take pride in having been commended for my teaching style where I always ensure to explain everything in the simplest of manners and take an approach that most suits the student to bring out their best effort.
After graduating from Cambridge, I went on to seek professional employment as a graduate engineer but never left my passion for teaching. I therefore volunteered as a STEM ambassador where I shared my passion for Science and Mathematics to students from various backgrounds. I continue to take utmost joy and pleasure in tutoring and helping students attain their full potential; and in this regard, I can assure any prospective students that they’ll be getting the most out of their time and money whilst paving way for a bright future.

I am also a student myself, learning a new language: Turkish, and also keeping up with development in the field of quantum physics, specifically quantum biology, quantum computing, machine learning and more. The advantage of taking lessons from a tutor who is also a permanent student is that I will be able to share my own methods of learning with you that work well for me as well as those that do not work for me as it may work for you! Learning is a unique thing. No book can describe your brain completely. First we will learn "how to learn", and then we will enjoy learning together :)
Since I have worked both in real schools and universities and online, I will be able to provide you the best resources to thrive throughout your development process.

I completed my undergraduate degree in Biomedical Science and I am currently a masters student studying medicine to become a qualified Physician Associate.
I love science and which led me to peruse a career in the medical field and I’d love to share my knowledge in science with other people. I found science tough and various study techniques got me through this tough subject! I’ve tutored students in person for 3 years in various subjects such as science, maths, English and religious studies as well.
I’ll be using effective study techniques to tutor my students which has been tried on other students while I was tutoring in person. Students found those techniques effective, interactive and fun!

Hi there! I’m Sana and I have recently finished my A-levels in English Literature, Chemistry, and Biology and I am a medical student. I have been a tutor at Kumon for 3 years now as well as tutoring online for the past year. With my extensive background working with children and adults alike as a tutor, I am able to successfully plan and prepare lessons fit to the individual themselves which is essential. The biggest thing I have learnt is that all students are different, requiring different methods of teaching. Through accumulating over hundreds of lessons worth of experience, I have honed my skills to deliver the most effective but enjoyable experience for the tutee.
I understand the stressful nature of exams, and from my own experiences at GCSE and A-level, have learnt the importance of consistent and efficient exam preparation. In my lessons, I combine subject content with exam-style questions to ensure that you feel most confident coming away from my lessons. I believe that this kind of focused teaching style, which is centred around the exam board requirements, means that you are able to face your exams with confidence. This is a tried and tested approach.
Ultimately, I want my lessons to be as helpful as possible for you. Therefore, while I always make the lesson content highly focused and useful, I am also keen to ensure that the lessons feel relaxed and enjoyable, as this kind of atmosphere is the most productive one for learning.

I am currently in my 3rd year of a BSc Biology degree at the University of St Andrews. Alongside modules covering all aspects of Biology, I also take Chemistry and Statistics modules to aid my studies. During A Levels I achieved an A* in Biology (97%) and an A in Chemistry.
During my 2 years tutoring I have tutored Biology and Chemistry, mainly for GCSE and A Level students, and covering a range of exam boards including: AQA, CIE, Edexcel, OCR A, OCR B, and WJEC. Over my time, as a tutor, I have completed over 800 hours of lessons and have helped many students improve their grades, achieve places in their dream universities and most importantly, improve their confidence in both themselves and their studies. Being able to help a student with their confidence is what I find to be the most rewarding part of being a tutor.
Below are a few reviews from previous parents and students on their experience with me as a tutor (all names have been removed for privacy reasons):
"“We are so grateful for all your care and hard work with [student]. I am very grateful for your professionalism and kind manner over our time working together. We would highly recommend you to anyone, you are an excellent tutor.” - Parent
“Just wanted to say a huge thank you for all your help and support with [student] Biology A level. She has had huge benefit from your 1-2-1 sessions, and you have had such a positive influence during what has been a very difficult year for so many students. You have been extremely motivational for her and succeeded where we have not!! She always was ready, prepared and looked forward to her lessons with you, and you gave her lots of confidence. I will be delighted to recommend to you anyone looking for a biology or Chemistry tutor.” - Parent
“I really enjoyed our lessons so thank you for making Biology easier for me :)” - Student
My lessons are completely personalised to the needs of my student. Before each lesson we will decide on a topic for the next lesson. During the lesson, I find the most effective use of time is to spend the first half revising the theory and reviewing any weak points in the topic, and using the remainder of the lesson to do past paper questions. However, if you feel you would benefit from a specific lesson structure or more/less review time, I am completely flexible as I want you to walk away feeling satisfied by the lesson.
I look forward to starting lessons together! :)

I am currently studying towards my PhD degree in Mathematics at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) and at the same time, since 2017 I am employed by QMUL as a Teaching Associate for various Schools within the college. Being employed as a Teaching Associate for the Schools of Mathematical, Biological and Engineering Sciences at QMUL equipped me with a certain level of initiative and commitment when it comes to resolving complex situations that may arise within the classroom. The modules I have taught range from “Probability & Statistics” to “Data Analytics with Excel”, always within the field of Mathematics and Physics.
I am experienced in submitting accurate reports and working efficiently within a team, due to my PhD course. Apart from my academic teaching experience, since 2018 I have been employed as a Private-Tutor for Kaleido Tutors London as well as BE Education, where I had the opportunity to teach students of various ages on Mathematics and Physics for GSCEs, A-Levels and Cambridge Pre-U. Moreover, I familiarized myself with online tutoring, by providing lessons over Skype for students who were not able to physically attend the session. This taught me how to continuously engage with students and enhanced my ability to correctly evaluate situations where students lack the understanding of important notions related to the subject taught.
During 2018-2019, I was employed as an Application Consultant at the Careers & Enterprise Center for the Careers Group UCL & QMUL where I learned how to quickly build rapport and provide targeted advice to students, with respect to their Oxbridge & Greater London Undergraduate and Postgraduate programmes applications. I specialized in applications concerning degrees in Natural Sciences (Mathematics, Physics) but I also got valuable experience in Engineering and Biology subjects. Moreover, I prepared the students for their upcoming interviews for their placement by providing mock-interviews and various methods to answer difficult questions. These one-to-one appointments taught me how to handle personal data with discretion.

Hi! My name is a Tanya and I'm a fully qualified teacher of Science delivering curriculum in GCSE Biology and Chemistry, KS3 Biology, Chemistry and Physics, and specialising in Biology at A-level. I've had more than 13 years experience in a variety of mixed, single-sex, state and independent UK secondary schools, and worked with a huge number of pupils over this time preparing them for GCSE and A-level exams. Originally from Melbourne, Australia, I have considered London to be my home since 2007. I have enjoyed working here as a secondary teacher throughout all of this time. During my undergraduate studies I provided private tuition to primary and secondary age pupils in subjects including Science, Maths and English with terrific success, and I continue to work with young people in this capacity today. I'd love the chance to meet with you to discuss the tuition needs of your child and to set up a programme of study tailored to them, so please do get in touch.

Where can I get common entrance past papers?
Our tutors will supply your child with past papers in the 7+, 11+ or 13+ exams. With this your child will get the best practise possible to prepare them for common entrance exams.
What's on the common entrance science syllabus?
The science syllabus for common entrance varies for each level. The ISEB 11+ science exam will test topics on biology, chemistry and physics. Pupils will need to demonstrate strong knowledge on Energy, Materials, Earth and Solar System. These topics will also be on the 13+ exam, but in more depth.
Where can I find a science teacher?
Find a local science teacher and start learning wherever you are in the UK. We have great science tutors tailored to your child's needs. We also have specific tutors to help with common entrance for maths, English and science.
How to pass common entrance with a science teacher
Common entrance exams are a test of skill and practical application. It requires children to think outside the box and go beyond their learning at school. Pupils who hire a science teacher have a greater chance of passing the 11-plus and 13-plus exams. This is because they are given 1:1 tuition and support to progress into higher level material. A science tutor will help them to get higher test scores than relying on self-study.
Our tutors will take your child through practical and theoretical based science tasks. Popular topics taught in KS1 and KS2 in particular includes: plants and animals, the environment, the human body, electric circuits, light and sound & more. For 11-plus and 13-plus exams this will go into more detail and specific syllabus content.
Common entrance exams are amongst the most competitive in the UK. There is usually a 1:10 ratio for a place in school per child that takes the exam. Therefore, getting extra tuition will enable you to beat the odds. We've seen our students boost their results by 41% just from a few sessions alone. For you, this means you're more likely to give your child the education they truly deserve.
Our science teachers are qualified, DBS checked and local. Most have had experience working in the classroom before becoming a tutor. With online learning being more popular, you can count on your child's safety during their studies. You can start learning today from £20/hr from the comfort of your own home.
For more information, give us a call today and we'll do the rest of the work — Tutor House makes it easy for you.
