Patrick B
Friendly and helpful A-Level Maths and GCSE Science Tutor
I enjoy Mathematics greatly, having studied both Maths and Further Maths at A-Level, also while I was at sixth form I took part in working as a classroom assistant in Year 8 Maths lessons, which gave me valuable experience at teaching students. I took part in another programme which taught the elderly how to be computer literate, these two experiences have given me very different skills to utilise whilst teaching.In my experience as a one-on-one tutor I have usually found my best strategy is to utilise examples, both ones I work through myself and others I assist my students in working through,...

Anita M
Anita has been incredibly helpful in both improving my understanding and confidence in A Level Chemistry with weekly tutoring sessions. I felt really comfortable to learn with friendly back and forth communication that guided me to find the answers myself and persevere if I wasn't correct at first, so that I actually understood the content rather than just memorizing it from a textbook. Each lesson, we worked on topics that I struggled with as we went through content in detail, allowing me to grasp tricky concepts and then practiced with past paper questions to understand how to gain full marks from the specific mark scheme, which also helped to improve my exam technique. Overall, Anita's expert experience in both Chemistry and Tutoring allowed me to go from averaging C grades in mocks to feeling able to obtain an A grade in A Level Chemistry with a lot more confidence in exams.
