Nathan

I am a professional, enthusiastic and inspirational Cambridge graduate. I believe in teaching learning techniques which give students the confidence to achieve high grades for life. I also look to make the teaching experience personalised to a student’s abilities and interests so they can develop significantly faster than in a standard classroom. Recent students have gained A*s at A-Level and 8s and 9s at GCSE.

I will always look to prioritise student welfare, and have a CPD qualification in Safeguarding Children alongside my Enhanced DBS Certificate. My voluntary work for The Mix Young Person`s Helpline has provided me with additional training in emotional support. I also work with the Neurodiverse Self Advocacy Organisation so have specialist knowledge regarding autistic and neurodivergent people.
