Physics, Maths and Economics for students studying for IB, A level and GCSE exams

I am a qualified, experienced and enthusiastic teacher of physics, maths and economics. I have a PhD in Physics from the University of Glasgow, where I studied the sub-atomic and quantum effects of interactions between high intensity laser beams and aromatic molecules. I also have an M.Sci. degree in Physics from the University of Glasgow and an M.Sc. in Economic Management and Policy from the University of Strathclyde. I am also a UK qualified teacher with a PGCE from Nottingham University.

Since qualifying as a secondary school teacher in 2014 I have taught at some of Europe’s most prestigious schools. Most of my current work involves teaching highly personalised lessons to students wishing to improve or excel at the IB, A Level or GCSE exams. I have also helped physics undergraduate students to improve both their theoretical knowledge and their experimental skills.

Before becoming a full-time tutor I worked as a research scientist and, later, as a medical physicist. So I bring not only a strong passion for science and maths into my lessons but a practical, real-world context for the subjects.

I help students achieve the highest possible grades by tackling their areas of difficulty and building their confidence. My aim is to ensure students understand the fundamental concepts in order to build knowledge and apply this in exams.

My educational background:

1999-2002 Ph.D. Physics, University of Glasgow
1994-1998 M.Sci. Physics, University of Glasgow
2013-2014 PGCE (Postgraduate Certificate of Education), Nottingham University

Ali
Math, Physics, and Chemistry Tutor with 5 years of Teaching Experience
Remember how difficult it was the first time your physics teacher said you had to break forces down into components in order to use Newton's Second Law? Or when they asked you to find the maxima and minima of a complicated function? I sure do - I struggled with those things as well. But I found that with good teachers and some hard work, I was able to master difficult concepts. Through my struggle, I learned how to effectively instruct students in physics and math. Teaching and tutoring have been my passion since high school. I used to tutor students after school because I loved to see that look of "ahh I get it now" on students' faces. A decade later, it has become my passion and career. I am a Ph.D. candidate in physics, with MS/BS degrees already in Physics, and through earning my degrees I have obtained a deep understanding of the field, as well as plenty of experience teaching it. My enthusiasm for teaching physics and math is apparent in my tutoring sessions. This makes students excited to learn and therefore more receptive to the concepts. Feel free to contact me and ask any questions you may have, whether they are about my qualifications, my teaching philosophy, or anything else that comes to mind!

Every child is a Math genius | British tutor
When I was a young child, I believed I was not a mathematical person. It wasn't until I met an amazing teacher at age 15 that I discovered my mathematical genius and my life was changed forever. I'm eternally grateful to that teacher. My teacher knew that self-image and self-belief is the key to unlocking your child's mathematical abilities. Everyone is good at maths, but we all have different styles of thinking. Bad teachers teach every child the same way. My job is to find your child's style of mathematics and allow him to discover that for himself. When he discovers that, he will begin to enjoy the beauty and power of mathematics...and then you will see as the grades begin to soar. 👉Click the blue "Contact Oliver" button above and let's discuss how we can unlock your child's mathematical talents! 😊

Good! I am a 22 year old student who loves teaching. My methodology may seem common, but I can say that as a person who was recently in the role of a high school student, I know some tricks and tips to make learning easier! I have experience giving private lessons and the truth is that both the students and I have a good time since I consider myself a friendly person with a lot of patience to be able to teach properly.

Cameron
Native English Speaker offering lessons to kids in school
Hola! Me llamo Cameron, de Reino Unido. Estudiaba economía y finanzas en universidad. Soy profesor de inglés, matemáticas, economía, historia, y finanzas. Si quieres un profesor para enseñar a tu hijo o hija inglés or otra sujeto en ingles, no tienes que buscar más! Tengo experiencia laboral con niños de entre siete y 18 años. También, he enseñado finanzas al nivel universitario. Estoy aquí en Valencia para aprender español. Estoy haciendo una programa de nivel C1, entonces hablo suficiente bien para explicar cosas en español, pero doy clases de cualquiera en inglés. Abajo hay más sobre yo en inglés. Experience I have a bachelor’s degree in Economics from the University of Glasgow and a master’s degree in Investment and Finance from the University of Strathclyde. As a natural extrovert, I worked in Sales and Customer Service for about two years. During this time, I was responsible for training new sales recruits and fellow customer service representatives. Recently at Morgan Stanley, an investment bank, I took on the responsibility of training my team’s newest member who had zero work experience. Training colleagues at work is quite like tutoring; to teach anyone requires a lot of energy, patience, and positivity – three things that I have in spades. It also requires being comfortable with explaining things multiple times and sometimes in different ways. Regrettably, most people lack compassion when teaching because they forget with time just how useless they felt at the start of their first job, or even their fifth job. Similarly, after mastering a subject a teacher can easily forget how much they struggled with it at school. Fortunately, I have a good memory. You will find me to be a very understanding and enthusiastic tutor. To the Student If you are reading this, it means that you have an ambition. That ambition might be getting into your dream university, landing a great job straight out of school, or simply being the best that you can be! If you put in the work, I promise I’ll help you achieve your goals. The road to success is a succession of smart decisions (say that quickly ten times) and seeking help is one of those smart decisions. There is nothing wrong with seeking help; no one in history has ever become successful without it. I had plenty of tutoring when I was at school, and it helped me get the grades that some of my teachers never believed I would get. I hope that your teachers are more encouraging than mine were, but the reality is that schoolteachers think in averages. If a teacher’s class average is an A, but the worst student gets a D, that teacher will celebrate. As your tutor, I will only celebrate when you get the grade you want. My classes are not going to be lectures, that wouldn’t be any fun for either of us. Each session will be focused on what you feel you need help with, and we will go through practice questions together. But don’t worry, it’ll be a lot more fun than you think! Just imagine how good it will feel to walk out of each exam with a smile on your face, knowing that you aced it. It’s an awesome feeling, I can’t wait for you to experience it for yourself! To the Parents My guess is you are reading this because you are not totally satisfied with the education being provided at your child’s school. As someone who received plenty of discouragement from teachers, from primary school all through most of high school, I appreciate the effect this can have on a student’s learning. It can also be tough for a student in a class of 20 to 30 to get the attention he/she needs from the teacher. I will be a refreshing change to what your child is used to. The most obvious advantage to private tutoring is that your child will have my undivided attention. Another advantage is that, without the distraction of peer pressure in school classes, your child will have the confidence to speak up more and ask questions judgement free. It will amaze you just how quickly your child will improve after a few tutoring sessions. Ultimately, I’m here to get your child top grades. No matter what grades your child is achieving now, I guarantee that the top grades are still attainable. It’s just a matter of learning and practice. Between school and tutoring, your child will get plenty of both. If you are interested in private tutoring, I would love to discuss how I might be of service.

Math courses and tutoring in English elementary - high school
Navigating the world of mathematics can be difficult. One on one instruction is provided to identify students needs and improve comprehension. Personalized goals and learning targets for student help to provide a clear and organized plan for success.

Joanne
Experienced Tutor and Teacher - British National Curriculum
I am an experienced primary school teacher of 12 years and a mother. I have taught in a wide range of different schools including international schools in Dubai, Germany, and Spain, and many inner-city schools in and around Liverpool. I particularly enjoy teaching maths and utilize a plethora of different creative techniques in order to instill both a love of learning and a clear, confident understanding of the subject. I quickly develop strong relationships with children as I am excellent at gauging them and their specific needs. I love talking to children in order to fully understand them and decide on the most appropriate methods to use with them. I like to provide children with a number of mathematical methods for working out a specific problem so that they are not reliant on one method alone and I find that this also helps to build their confidence. Obviously, I also greatly enjoy teaching reading and writing as English is my native language. I am highly effective at ensuring progress and advancing students' confidence and ability. I have worked in reception, year 1, year 3, year 4, and year 6 so almost the full spectrum! I have tutored children in all year groups and have 3 years experience of in tutoring. I also have experience teaching EAL children in the UAE, the U.K., and Germany and a variety of SEN children.
