I’m a graduate in Accounting and Finance from the University Of Warwick with wide experience tutoring maths, economics and sciences, particularly physics. I have done both the old style exams and the new ones, which puts me in a good position to help all students and apply the best resources to their revision for their specific exam.

To me, defeating any tricky exam is a process of a few steps:

Know the facts. This is the first and most obvious step in doing well. Factual recall is the basis of getting good marks. This can often be difficult, but breaking it down into smaller chunks, and being "smart" about revision can make a topic list much more approachable!

Apply the understanding. This is particularly important in sciences and tricky maths! Practice makes perfect, but it has to be the right type! An understanding of where the marks are allocated can make this much easier.

Play the game? Exams to me represent not just a factual recall or knowledge application test, but a strategic challenge where tactics, organisation and creative, targeted revision are rewarded. Strategically approaching exams with an eye to exam technique and ‘playing the mark scheme’ has always helped me get the best results. Coursework can be a great way to make life easier when it comes to exams, if you`ve got it. A good coursework grade can give so much extra breathing room for the actual papers.

Experience: I have tutored hundreds of students through the government`s schools tuition programme in maths, English and all three sciences. I have also been a private economics, maths and physics tutor for the entirety of my university career so almost three years to this point. I have helped students go up many grades in a variety of different exam boards so I am familiar with the specific requirements examiners look for when awarding top marks. Prior to this I was a senior maths mentor at my school where I helped younger students with problems they were struggling with, sparking my interest in the tutoring field. I am able to tutor from KS3 level all the way up to university in certain fields and look forward to helping anyone who may be interested.
