Information about David

I am a graduate of Durham University with a Master`s Degree in Physics and Astronomy, willing to tutor Maths and Science at any level from Primary to A-level. I have been a tutor for six years now, and in that time I have helped students secure academic scholarships and exceed their predicted grades.

I was a student at St Olave`s Grammar School in Orpington, where I was elected as Vice Captain of School for the 2015/16 academic year. As a Physics student I have a thorough understanding of the maths and science courses at GCSE and A-level and achieved 11 A*s at GCSE as well as 2 A*s in Maths and Physics and 2 As in Chemistry and Further Maths at A-level. This history of exam success means I understand how best to deal with obtuse mark schemes and assessment criteria. In addition to tutoring I have also been a content creator for the revision site `Physics and Maths Tutor` for whom I wrote the A-Level Physics revision guide and several class workbooks. I know the subjects well and I know how they`re assessed in the exams.

I love to teach and discuss ideas with people, and help them to understand complex topics in a manner that will enrich their appreciation for the subject as well as help them to pass exams.
When teaching I will first want to assess the student`s current understanding and ability, and set regular targets to document the student`s progress as we work towards understanding topics with which the student has difficulties.
I look forward to giving my help.

Availability: I am available at flexible times in the coming months. I can tutor online if preferred but I typically prefer and enjoy in person teaching.

Willing to travel: 10 miles

Experience: I have been a tutor for six years now, and in that time I have helped students secure academic scholarships and exceed their predicted grades.

I have been a content creator for a well known revision site for whom I wrote the entire Physics A level revision guides and several workbooks. This has given me a great knowledge around how the material is examined and what students need to be able to do.

I have a masters degree in Physics myself, and great school grades in maths and science subjects. So I know these subjects very well and can share that knowledge with students.

David is an excellent, intelligent, caring and helpful tutor in every way. He helps any student reach beyond their expectations. He helped my son learn beyond our expectations and my son did really well in exams. Any student will be lucky to have him as their tutor.

My boys really enjoyed working with David over the summer, they actually look forward to their lessons. David went through some really challenging Maths workbook and covered all other subjects such as verb and non verbal reasoning, we are very pleased to have David working with our boys.

David is a very good tutor, he knows his subjects well and he definitely helped my son to improve... however he is still gaining experience tutoring and i felt that sometimes he was a bit shy in giving my son more work. I would recommend David to anyone .
