My curiosity about how the universe works led to my interest in physics and I have always tried to make sense of the world around me. Whilst studying for my PhD I researched new electronic devices based on atomically thin materials that will one day soon revolutionise consumer electronics. It is my passion for physics and experience as a physicist that I will bring to each tutor session. The aim is for my pupils to come away from these sessions with a greater understanding and appreciation of the subject as a whole. This in turn will allow them to realise their potential and achieve their aims.

Experience: I have 4 years teaching experience as a postgraduate teaching assistant at the University of Exeter. This role involved working in a variety of teacher-student environments including as a tutor to groups in problem classes and as a laboratory demonstrator to pairs of students.

In addition to this I have 3 years’ experience tutoring undergraduates without a background in physics or mathematics. These were informal, one-on-one, tutoring sessions with Medical Imaging students from the University.
