Information about Alan
I am an appointed Advanced Level Mathematics Examiner for 2015-2024. I have successfully marked the 2023 Pure Maths EDEXCEL Paper One.( I have a certificate from EDEXCEL to confirm my successful marking of A Level Maths (MECHANICS ) from 2015 to 2018 )
My accuracy as an examiner has given me team leader status.
I am retired as a teacher, so I have plenty time to prepare excellent lessons.
I expect students to do extra work which I will mark and give feedback to student and parent.
I am an Enthusiastic teacher of Mathematics and Physics to Advanced Level-and beyond.
I enjoy sharing my knowledge and help students to fulfil their true potential. I keep up to date with Physics news.
I was a tutor at Wiltshire College for 14 years, then taught Mathematics and Science in the field of Military Science at MOD for another 14 years to 2012. This has given me a superb appreciation of the practical applications of my subjects in many situations. For example Doppler Radar and sensor circuits to identify speed and direction of enemy targets.
I have experience of being an Examiner and Moderator in A Level Physics too.
My DBS Certificate has been renewed from 6th August 2023
I use ZOOM Pro for ONLINE lessons :
I also use BITPAPER which keeps all the lessons taught in one place. Its a really innovative resource sharing environment that will cost you nothing. The student gains possession of lessons that can be referred to for revision and reinforcement of concepts.
Availability: I prefer tutoring in Advanced Level Maths/Further Maths/Stats/Physics.
Any exam Board for Physics : Edexcel, AQA, OCR
Morning tutorials are really best for me but I realise students are at school .
I tutor all afternoons except Saturday
I tutor all weekday evenings up to a 7 pm start
I only teach for one hour intervals weekly not fortnightly.
Willing to travel: Home Only
Experience: Hons Degree Physics Nottingham University (1974)
PGCE (Leeds University 1978) Qualified Teacher Status.
At St Aldates College, Oxford, I taught A Level Maths and Physics for 6 years at an international Independent school.
At Wiltshire College, I was responsible for setting up a Mathematics Study Centre. I have a vast experience of one-to-one tuition and the negotiation of learning programs with indiviual students.
I have taught on a wide range of courses at Advanced Level: Pure Maths, Mechanics, Further Maths, Statistics and Physics.
GCSE Maths and Physics, BTEC Computing, HND Engineering, BEd Education
At the Ministry of Defefence, I was a subject matter expert in the following fields:
RADAR, Thermal Imaging, Ballistics, Missile Dynamics. I taught Military Science and Mathematics to Army Officers for 14 years.
I taught the use of EXCEL, SHAREPOINT and POWERPOINT. I write IOS Apple Mac IPHONE APPS
I have many great feedback comments and I want to continue Tutoring because it is great fun,. All students have their own way of learning but I insist that they do extra work to consolidate their learning.
I have found that the students who succeed are the ones who consistently complete the work I recommend them to do.
DBS Check: Yes

Alan has been supporting my daughter who is in Year 13 taking A-level maths. He has been an excellent tutor bringing experience both as a maths teacher and examiner. He has set papers to elicit any misconceptions in her understanding and works through problems, building confidence and skill. We would highly recommend Alan as a tutor.

Alan stepped in at very short notice to help my daughter out with some A Level maths topics she had missed out on, and is doing a great job in filling in the gaps and more importantly helping with understanding.
