Private tuition with experienced tutors in Penzance.

My name is James and I have 15 years experience supporting pupils to achieve the best possible outcomes. I am looking forward to working with you. I believe that building a good rapport with students, is a good start to successful learning. I also tailor my lessons to the way that individual students prefer to learn. I have found that having a flexible approach enables me to break down any barriers to building knowledge and skills. My experience across Primary and Secondary (Maths) sectors has given me a broad understanding of how pupils learn. I have extensive experience working with pupils who...

I have been teaching languages and training teachers to tutor languages for over ten years and along the way I’ve worked in a number of very prestigious schools in the UK and overseas at British international schools. I have taught and supported hundreds of students, from primary school all the way up to A Level and so I am very confident teaching any student at any stage of their learning. I also have a lot of experience teaching the French International GCSE. I’m also a CELTA qualified tutor of English as a Foreign/Second Language. I’ve taught English to children and adults alike. As a keen ...

I can hear you now: "More school? After school? No, please.'Let me explain why I know where you're coming from.It doesn't matter how old you get. The moment something difficult finally clicks, is one of the the most freeing feelings you will experience. It doesn't change whether you're a child or an adult, life still wants to teach us hard things and sometimes in the hardest ways. I also remember attending school and feeling like nothing clicks, I mustn't be smart enough. Confidence low, school just isn't something I'm good at it. You look around the room and your friends are all answering questions,...

I have spent over 30 years teaching in secondary schools in various parts of the UK (in both the state and independent sectors) teaching both geography and geology to university entrance level. At my previous school our geology department was awarded the best school in the U.K. by the 'Good Schools Guide' for its 'A' Level results! As an educator my approach initiates student-centred learning involving debate and discussion, avoiding being merely a dispassionate purveyor of facts. As a teacher, I prefer not lecture but encourage guided self-discovery with any student. My approach is more ‘the g...

Friendly, highly experienced, qualified (PGCE+QTS+DBS) female Maths teacher with 28 years teaching experience in both English and Chinese mainstream schools. As a GCSE (9 -1) Mathematics Examiner I have a deeper understanding of specification & assessment. My specialist knowledge, training background and teaching experience have well prepared me working with wide range of learners from KS1/2 to KS3/4 and KS5. I believe everybody can do maths and my strength is helping students to repair maths learning gaps, practise skills, build up the confidence, enjoy the maths learning and achieve their best...

I have been teaching to a wide range of student abilities for over 30 years. I have had considerable success with many ex-chemistry students who are now doctors, nurses, teachers etc. My teaching style depends on the individual.I really think that the student being able to teach me a topic ensures that their understanding is good. Most students are visual learners so I use diagrams a lot in my explanations. I know what examiners are looking for and have gone through many mark schemes with boards like Edexcel, AQA and Cambridge to make sure I understand what can and cannot be put down as an answer....

I am an experienced tutor and have been working in Somerset for the last fifteen years. In the past I have tutored students who cannot access full-time education for different reasons (health, mobility, faith and behavioural, for example) and always try to tailor my tuition to the individual's needs.I have worked as an examiner for both A level (chemistry), GCSE (sciences) and SATS (maths) so this means I am able not only to tutor the subject but also improve examination technique. Mathematics and all three sciences can be covered at GCSE in any combination and I have gained a sound working knowledge...

Hi, I’m Sam and I am in my final year of my Masters degree in Physics at the University of Oxford. I am on track for a first-class degree overall and I currently rank 4th out of 150 in my cohort after 3 years. For my Masters year, I am taking specialised papers in Condensed Matter Physics and Quantum Information, and doing an experimental project in solar cell development. I tutor Maths, Further Maths and Physics for students doing GCSE, A-Level and university admissions tests. I tutor online using a virtual whiteboard to be able to work on problems together. I take inspiration from my Oxford t...

Hello, I am a qualified teacher with a post graduate qualification in teaching and an outstanding grading. I have been tutoring on this site since June 2018.

I enjoy working 1:1 or in small groups to support children with specific learning needs, identifying misconceptions and striving towards consistent accelerated progress. I enjoy creating interesting and memorable learning experiences. I have worked with children who require differentiated activities...
