I have a long teaching career From 2003, that has spanned both Secondary school and FE lecturer settings teaching. I specialise in teaching students from ages 11 to adult. I have taught numerous science programmes with Physics, Chemistry, Biology and applied sciences such as Forensics. I Have also been an examiner for AQA , OCR and Edexcel. This does give one a good insight into how exam questions are required to be answered. This is an effective tool that will ensure students good understanding and ultimately good grades when it time for assessment.

For the last seven years I have worked as a one to one and small group tutor with a successful private tuition company ‘Top Marks,’ based in Ormskirk . I work flexible hours that fit around my students schedules mainly in the evening and at weekend. The sessions offer personalized learning tailored for the individual needs of students (age range between 11-16) often geared towards the GCSE exams themselves. Many of the students are with me for at least two years and really see significant improvement in their knowledge often moving up sets and exam skills improving grades. I fully enjoy my role as tutor considering it an integral part of the students journey towards confidence and success in the subject and exams.
The nature of the role involves highly personalized teaching according to the needs of each student. Age range is between 11-18, I have taught Biology and Physics at A level although currently I focus on GCSE all specifications. This academic year I have been involved in The National Tutor Programme incentive to help students catch up there studies I have taught students Nationwide that have been unable to attend school for extended periods of time and they have had great success as a result of this intervention. I use tailored resources, interactive whiteboard on zoom and some science software along with exam style questions when appropriate, Students will normally be e mailed copies of everything that is used throughout the lesson although this will also be available on screen and annotated real time so that understanding of the concepts are continuously assessed. Verbal and written assessing both informally and formally is so important in the learning process. It is paramount to pinpoint were students are struggling and I believe I am able to identify that quickly so that we can overcome any challenges. Students that I teach are happy consider me as approachable and have successful outcomes from there time in tuition
