Maths and physics are subjects that are difficult to learn in a lecture format. Students can benefit greatly from an explanation tailored to their needs and have often improved their understanding dramatically after completing problems alongside a tutor. This allows me to see exactly where a student is going wrong and to help them practice the specific skills that they struggle on. This is why the format of the lessons that I find work best is a collaborative attempt at some problems with content covered alongside completing practice questions.

I am currently a student doing an integrated masters in Materials engineering at Oxford University. This subject gives me the skills to teach a variety of A level courses including maths physics and chemistry. I have recently been an A level student myself and found that whilst teachers are often brilliant at what they do, it can be very helpful to spend some time with someone who has more recently complicated the course. I have an idea of which the difficult topics are and have struggled through them myself. This gives me insight into the ways in which new learners think which will improve the effectiveness of our tutorials.

I am happy to teach both online and in person, however because I split my time between university and my home town of Bath, I have found that online tutorials can often be more consistent and work better for both parties. I enjoy teaching a variety of candidates and am prepared to both help struggling students and to extend the understanding of candidates past A level.
