Information about Tony

Hi, my name`s Tony. I am a private tutor specialising in Maths, Further Maths and Physics at A-level, and Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Biology at GCSE. During term time, I also tutor at a local secondary school and sixth form college in West Sussex.

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 Manchester University`s 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 in 2017, and now have more than 5000 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.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: Cambridge Physics graduate. More than 30 years` working in a range of technical and software roles in industry. 5000+ hours tutoring experience.

My daughter enjoys the weekly tutor sessions. She has grown in confidence, not just in maths and science, but in all her subjects. She has become much more positive about work and school.
