I currently lecture in Engineering and Mathematics. I am 57 years old and graduated in 1987 with an honours degree in Mechanical Engineering. I worked for 25 years as a professional engineer in the motor industry for companies like Lotus Engineering, Borg Warner and Visteon. Covering such diverse areas as Formula 1 engine development to development of automated manual transmissions. I also hold several patents for technologies, with which I was closely involved in inventing. Whilst in industry I organised and ran many projects with local schools to encourage children to enter engineering as a profession. Until very recently, I worked for a very well known children`s science centre located in Cardiff bay. I was responsible for the manufacturing team, who make all the exhibits on the floor and also for the engineering and manufacture of other exhibits sold to other science centres around the world.

Availability: I do have a full time job as a lecturer in mechanical engineering and maths, but I am available most evenings from 6pm and also at weekends.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: I have been tutoring for over six years and teaching full-time for four years.
