5+ years of tutoring experience, I offer tutoring for GCSE and A-Level students in Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science, and Electronics, covering all major UK exam boards: AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC/Eduqas, and CCEA. At the GCSE level, I teach Physics, Computer Science, Mathematics, and Electronics, while at A-Level, I specialise in Mathematics, Computer Science, and Electronics.

I am currently a university student in a placement year pursuing a degree in Electronic Engineering with Computer Systems. I have achieved first-class grades, with scores reaching up to 100% in my first and second years. My expertise lies in STEM subjects, and my academic background, combined with hands-on experience in engineering, allows me to teach not just theoretical concepts but also their real-world applications.

Tutoring Experience

Throughout my 5+ years of teaching experience, I've had the privilege of working with a diverse cohort of students, ranging from Key Stage 3 pupils to undergraduate scholars. This extensive experience has honed my ability to adapt to various curricula and individual learning needs. My tutoring journey began during my GCSE days, where I assisted peers in navigating challenging coursework. This experience ignited my passion for teaching and demonstrated the profound impact personalized guidance can have on a student's academic journey.

In addition to one-on-one tutoring, I've also facilitated group study sessions and workshops, focusing on collaborative learning and peer-assisted study techniques. These experiences have enriched my understanding of different learning dynamics and have equipped me with a versatile skill set to address various educational challenges.

Tutoring Approach

I believe in a structured yet flexible approach to tutoring, ensuring that each lesson is tailored to the individual student's needs. Whether you prefer a structured learning plan or a more flexible, question-driven approach, I adapt my teaching to help you succeed.

For students who like a clear roadmap, I can create a personalized progress plan, outlining what topics will be covered each week, ensuring steady progress towards your goals. Alternatively, if you prefer a more fluid style, I’m happy to focus each lesson on the specific questions and topics you bring. The key is making the sessions as effective and engaging as possible.

A typical session lasts 1 hour and is structured to maximize understanding:

• 5 minute recap of previous content or schoolwork
• 15 minutes answering student questions and clarifying doubts
• 15 minutes introducing new concepts in a clear and practical way
• 25 minutes practicing and applying knowledge to reinforce learning

This structure is merely a guideline. Some students may prefer an entire session dedicated to problem-solving, while others might opt for in-depth theoretical discussions. We'll determine the most effective approach during our initial consultation and adjust as needed to best support your learning journey.

I am committed to providing a supportive, engaging, and adaptable tutoring experience. Together, we'll work towards achieving your academic aspirations and cultivating a genuine interest and confidence in your studies.
