I have tutored undergraduate students and school students in chemistry and physics for more than 10 years. I am very familiar with the syllabus for National 5, Higher and Advanced Higher chemistry and physics and am happy to teach undergraduate chemistry to University and college students. I work with students who have a range of abilities, from those struggling to sit the National 5 exam, to those aiming for an A pass at Advanced Higher.

I am very friendly and approachable and aim to make my students feel at ease and enjoy the lessons. I frequently tutor the same students for consecutive years as they progress through the secondary school system and am often recommended to their classmates by word of mouth.I have an excellent range of practice materials for all courses I tutor. These can be worked on during the lesson or left with the student for additional practice and marked by me after their attempt.

I have a Ph.D. and 1st class Honours degree in chemistry and physics and have worked in research laboratories in Universities and industry for over 7 years. During this time I also lectured and tutored chemistry and physics. I also developed strong links with a local school to supervise Advanced Higher Chemistry projects and have strong experience in this area. I am particularly specialised in Advanced Higher / 1st Year University and have spent a lot of time tutoring pupils of this age and level.

Availability: I am a full-time professional tutor and am available daytimes and evenings on weekdays and weekends. I can come to your home or you can come to my home or I can meet you in a public place like a library or University campus. Skype lessons are also available.

Willing to travel: 10 miles

Experience: Over 10 years experience of teaching University and secondary school pupils chemistry and physics. Thorough knowledge of the National 5, higher and advanced higher chemistry and physics syllabuses.
