I am a fully qualified Chemistry teacher with over eight years experience of teaching children in grammar, comprehensive and private secondary school education, and I have a Masters Degree in Chemistry from Oxford University. I have taught syllabuses for a variety of exam boards throughout Key Stage 3, GCSE, A-Level and the International Baccalaureate. I am also an experienced private tutor, having provided one-to-one teaching for school students and adult learners alike.
As a form tutor I have had significant pastoral responsibilities and understand the personal challenges that pupils face. Having been part of a university UCAS team for Oxbridge and Medicine applications, I know the highly competitive process that students face today, and the vital importance of top examination results.
Above all, I am enthusiastic about Science in general and Chemistry in particular, and enjoy inspiring, teaching and helping students to succeed academically and to understand the world around them.
Whether you or your child needs help getting to grips with the basics, targeting challenging topics, or preparing for examinations, I can provide expert, personalised support. I am patient and encouraging. I have a range of materials ready for use, and can take creative approaches to explain difficult concepts in a way that the student will understand.
I am keen to help those who find Chemistry challenging, and to stretch those who have a good foundation of knowledge. Many of my students have gained places at top universities to study Chemistry, Medicine and other science degrees, and I look forward to helping you or your child succeed.

Eleanor tutored my son for 18 months in `A` Level Chemistry. His confidence and exam technique improved considerably and this was reflected in his grades. Lessons were always well planned and Eleanor`s calm and pleasant nature made it easy for him to discuss with her topics he didn`t understand. Homework was set every week and I regularly received feedback on how he was doing.I would highly recommend Eleanor, she is an excellent tutor!

Eleanor is a fantastic tutor. Unfortunately, due to a change in my sons after-school commitments, we were only about to see her for a couple of months. However, during that time, we saw his exam results increase from a 2 to 4+. We are extremely grateful for Eleanors superb teaching and would highly recommend her.

Eleanor tutored my daughter for about a year for her triple science chemistry GCSE & was an excellent tutor. Amber improved drastically in her chemistry marks & started to feel much more confident. Eleanor was always punctual & organised with lessons being well structured following both the new syllabus & Ambers needs. Homework was set after each lesson to help Amber further. She really helped Ambers confidence & definitely made the GCSEs more manageable. Thanks Eleanor!

Eleanor is a fantastic chemistry tutor. She tutored my daughter before her GCSE exams and cleared up a few issues my daughter was having problems with. She gave my daughter the confidence to know that she would be able to do well in her exams. My daughter subsequently achieved a A*A* in double science. Thank you Eleanor.

I can`t recommend Eleanor highly enough. Chemistry is not an easy subject to learn yet she teaches it in such a way that the most difficult aspects become understandable. She`s patient and methodical and extremely easy to be with. Eleanor has made a complicated and at times challenging subject both do-able and enjoyable.

She is extremely professional, reliable and a good communicator. She is very sweet and patient and very good at explaining the subject. She has made learning chemistry a pleasure as well as making a challenging subject seem easy!
