Steven

Hello, I`m a fully qualified and highly experienced professional teacher and so I`m sure I could be a huge help to your son or daughter!

Each summer I mark hundreds of real GCSE exam papers for the biggest exam board in the UK. I use what I learn (common errors, misconceptions, poor exam technique) to help my students improve their grades - and this significantly boosts both confidence and grades.

Most teachers and tutors do not mark real exam papers, and so cannot bring this first hand, first class, knowledge to their students.

I have a Master of Science degree (with distinction) and also a Bachelor of Science (Honours) degree - and so I have a deep understanding of Science and Maths and use this to help my students.

I can offer you the following:

Class lessons online for £18 per hour - Highly effective & great value.

One-to-one online lessons £120 per hour.

One-to-one at your home (time suitable to us both) £ by negotiation to take into account travelling time.

I have a few vacancies in my small group GCSE progress classroom lessons - see below.

Classroom style lessons:

Fantastic value at only £18 for a 1 hour lesson !

These excellent skype lessons are suitable for all year 9, 10 and 11 students who are studying for GCSE`s and are looking to improve their knowledge, understanding, confidence and grades.

More details if you want them:

I tutor via video link - a method which over many years (including pre-covid) I have developed to ensure this approach is very effective for my students.

I am a fully qualified and very experienced professional Science and Maths teacher and tutor.

I am also an examiner - I mark REAL GCSE exam papers for the largest exam board.

I understand that leaning can be daunting for most students but you will find me both friendly and patient.

I tutor one-to-one and have classrooms of up to 9 students - see top of page.

I have a strong academic background (Master of Science with Distinction and Bachelor of Science with Honours) and from my many years as a teacher a deep understanding of Science and Maths, and how students can (and do!) misunderstand them.

This strong subject knowledge together with my excellent tried and tested teaching skills have been very successful in allowing me to tutor young people and help them improve their grades at GCSE and A level.

This is a very important time for all year groups as clearly they have missed a lot of school during the covid years. However, I can help you ! An hour a week lesson with me will make a lot of difference both to their knowledge and their confidence.

Experience: I am a fully qualified and enthusiastic professional teacher with many years experience as a classroom teacher. I have taught in several different schools and across all secondary Key Stages, from KS3 through GCSE to A level. I have also been head of A level Physics and Second in Science. I am an experienced tutor who has helped many students make significant progress and improve their grades.

My approach to tutoring:
Science and Maths are fun, and learning them should be engaging and interesting too. When tutoring, I seeks to uncover students weaknesses and then help them to improve whilst enjoying the process of learning.

Why choose me?
Being a professional teacher means that I have a deep understanding of:
* The subject.
* Specifically what needs to be learnt for your exams and what does not (the specification).
* Different teaching and learning techniques to help young people learn.
Many tutors are not qualified teachers and cannot provide ALL of the above - there is a big difference between understanding the subject and being able to teach it effectively...

Thank you for taking the time to read my profile, whether you choose me as your tutor or not I wish you good luck !
