Information about Mark

Previously the Head of Physics at a local High School, but have since become a Lead Practitioner of Science with Physics as a specialism. This is because I deliver many outstanding lessons and I am an ECT mentor for new teachers, specialising in supporting Gifted and Talented Students, enrichment and developing the art of resilience and independent learning.

I teach to the current AQA Specification at GCSE and at AS/A level (Physics 7407/8) with Astrophysics as my specialty in the optional topic. I have previously taught to the OCR Advancing Physics spec too. For the last six years I have been providing A Level tuition to the WJEC spec. However, all specs cover the same basic principles and therefore the skills and knowledge are transferable regardless. The additional experience of being an external examiner has further honed my teaching of key concepts and key words along with the appropriate skills and tips needed for students to succeed in the A Level Physics exams.

I have previously provided private tuition whereby my students have achieved either their forecast or better grade. This along with teaching students of all abilities allows me to provide a personalised programme of study and preparation for students for their imminent exams or over a duration of a course.

Addition (from 26th June 2021): With the recent Covid-19 crisis, I have had to embrace online and remote learning for private tuition (as well as the need in teaching my high school students). Using the likes of Zoom where lessons can be recorded for further review and extra support for students who need to just "pause and rewind" allows for that extra versatility in delivery and has further honed my pedagogical skills to provide the best tuition possible. Remote learning has added another route to learning, progress and ultimate performance in Physics at A level, GCSE, and KS3 Science for the student.

Availability: Evenings after 6pm. Sometimes earlier if available. Willing to travel to tutee`s home. Remote learning allows for extra flexibility.

Willing to travel: 10 miles

Experience: 19 Years Teaching up to and including A Level Physics
10 Years External AS & A Level Physics examiner for a leading exam board.

DBS Check: Yes

Mark is really knowledgeable and personable and my son has really enjoyed the first couple of lessons. My son has found them really useful and Mark has explained things clearly and with patience. I would definitely recommend Mark. Thanks

Mark is professional, knowledgeable and approachable. He has helped our son focus on the areas he`s needed to improve. He has an extremely good understanding of how exam boards work and how papers are marked. Would recommend.

We want to pen down our appreciation for Mark for being an excellent tutor. His teaching methodologies are second to none as he manages to equip our son with knowledge and skills, which helped him to achieve excellent grade in his lower sixth exams. In fact, he was awarded the best student in his year for Physics. We want to thank him for the efforts and being available even out of the teaching hours to resolve the smallest of the queries.
