I have just graduated from Durham University with a 1st class masters degree in Physics. From my experiences studying Physics and Maths at GCSE, A-Level, and degree level, I understand how stressful and daunting exams can be. This is why I am passionate about helping younger students to excel in these areas, drawing from my own knowledge (gained through trail and error through the years!) of what works and why.

The level at which I study Physics enables me to contextualise topics that my tutees cover at GCSE and A-Level, within the wider field of Physics, which I have found leads to a much more secure knowledge base - and confident student - when facing an exam.

I value any opportunity to be able to share my knowledge and experiences with students studying Maths and/or Physics, who are seeking a tutor to help consolidate and expand their learning. Please don`t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions you`d like to ask (or even to just have a bit of a chat!) to see if I`m the right tutor for you. :-)


A level: A*A*A* (Maths, Physics and Chemistry)

GCSE: 9A* 1A (Where I received the highest marks in my year for Physics, Biology, and Chemistry)

Recipient of Odgen Trust School Physicist of the Year (2016) and BMT Award for Science and Technology (2016), Durham Physics Award for Outstanding Achievement (2020), Florence Nightingale Prize for Graphical Excellence (2020).

Availability: Flexible hours - we can work together to arrange a time that is best for you.

Willing to travel: 1 miles

Experience: - Volunteered to mentor students taking GCSE maths.

- Currently in training as a Project Access mentor; someone who mentors students within schools that do not have the resources to support students aiming for entry into the top universities (Oxford, Cambridge, Durham, etc.)

- Student ambassador for Science and English: I assisted in classes of younger students, working with the teacher to ensure that all students understood and felt secure studying the lesson.
