Information about Mark
Fallen behind on exam content? Want to boost your current knowledge? Want to prepare for your exam content early? I am an experienced science teacher with a proven track record of improving the attainment and the progress of my pupils, I am an approachable, dynamic and creative individual with a passion for science and for helping others succeed. I have an extensive knowledge of the curriculum so I can help with any missed topics or work ahead on new topics.
I have great communication skills and will strive to help you understand concepts you find difficult, and embed those that you find easy. I know how to help you to get the most out of your learning, both with knowledge and learning/revision skills.
I am proud to say that many of the students I have taught over the years have gone on to study science based degrees, including medicine, pharmacy and dentistry. I have also trained science teachers and delivered lectures to degree level biochemistry. I have also delivered many successful lessons online via various platforms during the current education climate. Thanks for looking at my profile.
Availability: Please see the separate availability table, as my availability can change based on the tutees I acquire. Please get in touch even if your preferred time slot is marked as unavailable and I will strive to fit you in if possible for us both.
Willing to travel: 15 miles
Experience: I have been teaching for more than 8 years now and I have spent this time teaching in schools in Manchester. I can help with all science disciplines to GCSE and Chemistry to A level. Additional to my role as a teacher, I have also been a science key stage three coordinator which has allowed me to develop further and detailed knowledge of the curriculum and a head of year at a time where my students were engaging in their options choices.
I am also a GCSE examiner for the exam board AQA which has given me a further insight into the level of response required for exam questions.
My experience as a classroom teacher will allow me to design your tutoring sessions specifically to your needs, and my experience as an examiner will allow me to develop your exam technique further.

Mark is a great Chemistry tutor. He`s patient and friendly with an extensive subject knowledge. He helped improve my general subject knowledge massively and also taught me how best to approach exam questions. He was organised and always had loads of resources and exam style questions for each topic. He is a excellent teacher who made one of the hardest A-levels much easier and more enjoyable! I couldn`t recommend him enough.

Mark is extremely useful and crucial in my A Level chemistry learning. He is flexible with your teaching preferences and can adapt to the way you want to learn and of course is very friendly.
