Experience: Alongside my postgraduate studies, I have taken on numerous teaching responsibilities at Aberystwyth University. I have experience of teaching both Human and Physical Geography, and have also been an academic tutor for first-year university students. Modules have included `Geohazards`, `Volcanic Activity`, and `Global Security`.
My academic commitments and responsibilities have enabled me to gain experience of teaching both large and small class sizes. The students enrolled on my modules have exceeded their academic expectations, with consistently high grades and the acquisition of transferable skills.
Furthermore, I have taught college students on the Aberystwyth Summer University, having been an academic tutor and lecturer. The scheme is part of the `Widening Participation in Higher Education` initiative, and has allowed me to successfully prepare students for university.
I encourage discussion, and will mark assessments and homework free of charge. As an examiner, I fully understand mark schemes and expectations, and can assess in a precise, accurate and synoptic manner. As well as my teaching experience, I have marked coursework and undergraduate examinations in multiple modules, and are an examiner for GCSE and A-Level. I have also been an assistant lecturer, prepared module materials, and introduced students to field training and research methods.

Daniel has been very, very helpful in assisting our daughter at `A` level Geography. She`s an able student who lost momentum but Daniel has shown and reminded her what good work, encouraging results and effective preparation look like, and how to do it. He is professional, courteous, effective and also generous with his time and clearly cares about the help he provides. Very happy to have found him.

Daniel has been a huge help for my son to understand the mark scheme in A level geography, and how to compose an A grade answer. He has also uncovered and resolved conceptual misunderstandings my son hadn’t realised existed. I can recommend Daniel for tutoring A level geography.

Daniel is an excellent and responsible tutor. He always tries his best to meet my student`s needs. With his outstanding subject knowledge, he integrates the information of the main subject into other subjects such as Economics and Business Studies etc. It has really helped my student to understand the subject better. My student has obtained a broad knowledge from Daniel, with the method of teaching and learning cross curriculums. Thank you Daniel.

Daniel has been an excellent tutor for my daughter who was studying A level Geography. Daniel ensured that he provided detailed notes, exam questions and constructive criticism for my daughter throughout the sessions. As a result of Daniel’s tutoring, not only did my daughter’s grades begin to improve in geography but her confidence in planning and answering questions also improved immensely. It is also worth mentioning that Daniel plans his lessons in advance to ensure that all content is covered in time for tests. I would highly recommend Daniel as a tutor due to his excellent subject knowledge and a genuine passion for teaching.
