Katherine

Masters graduate in Chemistry from the University of Oxford, now teaching Chemistry in a prominent private school in Berkshire. Member of the Royal Society of Chemistry (MRSC). At school, I achieved 10 A*'s at GCSE and 4A's at A level.

I am friendly and approachable, and extremely patient. I enjoy a challenge, and will always push to get the very best out of myself and others in the most applicable way possible.

I have Teachers' Liability Insurance from Alan Boswell Group and a valid DBS.

Tutoring Experience

I have over ten years of experience tutoring students Maths and Science/s at both GCSE and A-Level. Since January 2019 I have also been teaching Chemistry in two of the top private schools in the UK, gaining valuable experience in the classroom and with SEND issues such as dyslexia and ADHD. I have a PGCE in Chemistry with Distinction.

I am currently Head of Chemistry at a leading independent boarding school.

Alongside my academics, my passion is sport. At University I captained the Athletics Team and Powerlifting Team, through which I was able to help with summer sports camps. I am now a qualified UKA Athletics Coach.

Tutoring Approach

I aim to help and encourage students to learn at their own pace in their own way, as I believe and acknowledge that every student is different. I draw upon my extensive experience of working with students with a range of abilities and learning styles to help me provide the best service possible, working particularly on common problems, exam technique, and study skills, building an organised approach to tackling subjects and eventually exams.
