I take a student-led approach whereby we work together to identify problem areas and possible solutions. I encourage students to make use of past papers, past exams, and homework exercises, which they can then bring to sessions to receive targeted help. The best way to learn is by doing! My goal is to teach students to understand the underlying principles, as this equips you to tackle challenging or less obviously-phrased questions.

My teaching style relies on student participation, as I prefer coaching a student through the problem together rather than just telling you how to do it. Often, students are not lacking in ability but rather confidence, and I find that using a collaborative one-step-at-a-time teaching approach is crucial to highlight the knowledge a student already possesses.

I prefer an informal learning environment and encourage you to ask questions along the way; there is no such thing as a stupid question! No two people are the same, and so the environment I foster is different for every student. The goal is nevertheless the same - to build confidence, develop skills, improve understanding, and to do so in a compassionate and supportive space.

I have experience tutoring high school students in Maths and Science. Additionally, I achieved my Maths GCSE two years early and proceeded to self-teach GCSE Statistics. I have A-Levels in Geology, Maths, Biology, and Chemistry. I obtained an Integrated Masters degree in Earth Sciences from the University of St Andrews, and am in the final months of my PhD in Volcanology. During this time, I have demonstrated practical classes for a range of undergraduate Geology modules and have published two research papers in leading academic journals.
