Nicolas

I am an experienced GCSE, iGCSE and A-Level tutor specialising in Maths, Further Maths, Physics, Economics, Business and Computer Science, with Chemistry and Biology to GCSE/iGCSE. I have eight years’ tutoring experience, have taught 100+ learners, and hold an MSc from Imperial College London and a First-Class BSc (Hons) in Mathematics, Statistics and Financial Economics. I teach online.

I have worked with students across a wide range of ages and abilities, including GCSE, A-Level and IB candidates, international students, entrance-exam candidates and learners requiring tailored support due to SEN or educational disruption.

My teaching is student-centred, structured and exam-focused. I identify gaps in knowledge and understanding, set clear goals and adapt lessons to each student’s needs. I focus on understanding and applying concepts rather than memorisation, using clear explanations, worked examples, guided practice and exam-style questions to build confidence and independence.

I use active recall and spaced repetition throughout lessons to strengthen long-term retention, alongside past-paper analysis, timed questions, model answers, error logs and targeted homework. Open-ended questioning and real-world examples also encourage students to explain their reasoning, think critically and apply their knowledge to unfamiliar problems.

Beyond academic content, I help students develop effective revision, time management, problem-solving and communication skills. Constructive feedback and achievable weekly goals allow students to see their progress and become more confident independent learners.

I work particularly well with students who feel behind, overwhelmed or unsure how to revise effectively. Lessons are calm, structured and built for focus and retention. Students have achieved 1–3 grade improvements, including exam-season turnarounds. The goal in every lesson is simple: clearer methods, stronger confidence and a realistic route to the target grade.

I teach across AQA, Edexcel, Cambridge/CIE, OCR and WJEC, support IB Maths and Physics at Higher Level, and also offer entrance-exam and university-level support.

Experience: I have eight years’ tutoring experience and have taught over 100 students across a broad range of ages, abilities and educational backgrounds. I hold an MSc from Imperial College London and a First-Class BSc (Hons) in Mathematics, Statistics and Financial Economics.

My experience includes working with private clients and established tuition providers, including organisations specialising in entrance examinations and international IB tuition. I have also worked with agencies supporting local-authority students, including learners with SEN, children in care and students whose education has been disrupted by mitigating circumstances.

I primarily teach GCSE, iGCSE and A-Level Maths, Further Maths, Physics, Economics, Business and Computer Science, alongside Chemistry and Biology to GCSE/iGCSE. I have experience across AQA, Edexcel, Cambridge/CIE, OCR and WJEC, and support IB Maths and Physics at Higher Level.

I also prepare students for 11+ and 13+ Maths and Non-Verbal Reasoning, and provide university-level support in Maths, Statistics, Economics, Business and Finance, alongside UCAS personal statements and course selection for quantitative degrees.
