Tony (Tutor in Horsham)

Hi, my name`s Tony. I am a private tutor specialising in Maths and Physics up to A-level, and Chemistry and Biology at GCSE. During term time, I also tutor at The Weald School in Billingshurst.

I was just a child when Man first set foot on the moon, but that historic moment kindled my love for all things scientific. After studying Maths and Physics at Cambridge, I was able to indulge my passion by enrolling on a PhD in Radio Astronomy at the Jodrell Bank radio telescope (the iconic backdrop for BBC’s ‘Stargazing Live’). I have since worked in Industry, where I often acted as a mentor to junior engineers, some of whom have since gone on to work for companies such as Apple and Microsoft.

I became a private tutor about two and a half years ago, and now have more than a thousand hours` experience. My teaching philosophy is simple: to encourage my students to understand the underlying principles rather than just trying to memorise facts. I try to make my lessons fun, and want everyone to look forward to the lessons and enjoy them in the same way I do.

I hope you will consider me in your search for a GCSE/A-level tutor. I look forward to hearing from you soon, and to having the opportunity of helping your son or daughter fulfil their own potential.
