Information about Simon
I have recently completed my PhD thesis in stellar astrophysics.
I have always possessed a tremendous thirst for knowledge, and am passionate in my pursuit of it.
I believe there are always new fields of study to explore and ideas to engage one`s imagination - I suppose one could say that I simply love learning.
I believe it is of the utmost importance that the student tries to understand the mathematical ideas and/or physical concepts behind the topics they are studying - to picture the problem or situation in one`s imagination often helps one appreciate what one is trying to accomplish, and gives one a much better understanding of what is involved in solving problems and achieving success.
This approach of getting inside a subject has stood me in good stead throughout my academic career, and still forms the cornerstone of my continued quest for facts to fire my imagination.
Availability: Available afternoons and evenings during the school week, and also at weekends.
Willing to travel: 5 miles
Experience: For the past twelve years I have provided private tuition in both mathematics and physics for both GCSE and A level students.
I have also assisted in mathematics and physics problem classes for 1st year undergraduates at University College London.
On top of this I have assisted in astronomy classes for further education diploma students at the University of London Observatory.
DBS Check: Yes

Simon has been tutoring my son for 4 months, and the improvement in his physics grades is outstanding. His confidence in the subject matter that they have covered has increased immensely. Since starting with Simon, when answering exam style questions, my son is picking up extra marks by being able to answer them much faster and with more accuracy and confidence. Simon is always so helpful and always takes the time to understand where my son needs the extra help, he is clearly an outstanding physics tutor. My son always looks forward to his lesson with enthusiasm.
