Information about Claire
Hi! I have been an experienced science teacher of over 35 years. I taught at a local grammar school, in North-West Kent, teaching GCSE Chemistry, Biology & Physics and Edexcel & AQA A`level Chemistry and IB Chemistry. I also taught in comprehensive schools teaching a wide range of abilities.
I have sort of specialised in tutoring and supporting tutees who have struggled at school for various reasons.
I am also a Grannie, so the monies I gain through tutoring enables me to go to Ireland each summer to see and visit my 5 grandchildren.
I have not raised my fees due COVID, but I have raised my fees if you want me to go to your home. I prefer tutees come to me and I reduce my fees to reflect this. I also reduce my fees if we Zoom!

Claire is so personable and friendly, she put my nervous daughter at ease and created a really productive learning environment. Weekly visits for the duration of year 11 meant she achieved an 8,8 in her Combined Science GCSE, up from a 4 in her yr 10 PPE. Claire worked out weak points and knowledge gaps, quickly helping my daughter catch up and gain confidence. Wonderful experience and a lovely lady.
