Physics - GCSE & A-level ( all boards) Science GCSE ( Synergy & trilogy )

I specialise in effective Physics tutoring. I have 27 years of experience and am also an examiner for Edexcel and OCR (including iAL).
I focus on understanding the key concepts and problem solving strategies. Physics is easy when you know how to approach problems.
I use ICT in a variety of ways to make the concepts clearer - Physics is really just maths with pictures! I will help you develop your visualising skills and show you how to apply different methods to answer questions.

Aerospace Engineering TU Delft - Selection Exam Preparation
The TU Delft Aerospace Engineering Bachelor is one of the most prestigious bachelor programmes the Netherlands has to offer. With it being highly sought-after by students all around the globe, there is a highly competitive selection procedure which needs to be completed to get admitted to this popular degree. A massive part of this admission procedure is the selection exam, consisting of three different tests: Mathematics, Physics and First-Year Material. As a cum laude graduated Aerospace Engineer at TU Delft, who has also been tutoring since 2017, I have a lot of valuable experience and knowledge of the program to help you out with the right preparation to get in. Moreover, after having successfully helped two international students get a spot last year, I have decided to continue preparing an additional custom lesson plan for each student, with the admission syllabus as its basis. With my calm and stepwise explanation, weaker topics will be addressed and your solution procedures will be polished. Each lesson will either be theory, exercise-based or an opportunity to talk about the admission, what to expect from the study and whether it is a right fit for you.

Mechanics, Physics, Thermodynamics: Higher education - private lessons.
Need help with mechanics, physics or thermodynamics? As a civil engineer, 31, I am happy to help you! Learn at your pace and with many examples to clarify the learning material. I have years of experience in learning simple and complex material. The lessons run as follows. First, we look together for the student's biggest stumbling blocks. These can be related to the subject matter as well as to the study method. From there, I work at the pace of the student and encourage them to ask as many questions as possible. I also give tips and tricks, and improve their working methods where necessary. During the lesson I give many examples to make the subject matter more interesting and we solve exercises together. Once practiced from the lesson, I mastered challenging exercises to also test the deeper understanding of the subject matter. In this way I try to optimally prepare the student for his/her exam test. However, learning should also be enjoyable. That is why I always strive for a bond with the student through a spontaneous and positive approach. I am also very patient. All this to solve and improve the problems. Are you interested? Don't hesitate to receive me! Please come! Tim
