Information about Donald

I have a PhD in mathematical physics and started tutoring while at university.
I have been a full-time professional tutor for over ten years and I teach maths and all science subjects for GCSE and Maths, Further maths, Physics and Chemistry at A-level.
I have been an exam marker for the OCR exam board and for controlled assessments at a school in Ipswich.

I have a PhD in mathematical physics and started tutoring while at university.
I worked in IT for many years and started tutoring again after helping my daughters with their GCSEs and A-levels.

I try to ensure that my students have a good understanding of the underlying principles of the subjects. This ensures they can deal with a great variety of exam questions and enables them to get the best result possible.
I am patient and helpful and believe I have a good understanding of young people and how they learn and study.

Availability: I have a few spaces left in the week both in the evening and during the day.

Willing to travel: Home Only

Experience: I initially started tutoring at university while I was doing my PhD and found that I had the ability to help pupils understand the underlying concepts of maths and physics. Instead of just giving my tutees the answers to questions, I always tried to provide interesting examples of the principles behind the topics being studied in order to give a deeper understanding of the subject.
I have been a full-time tutor for over ten years. I have taught pupils from a wide variety of schools - including state, independent and boarding schools.
I have also taught adult pupils including first year university students doing maths or physics modules as a part of other degrees.

My son improved his exam result by two (almost three) grades after having tutorials with Donald for just a month. I would therefore definitely recommend Donald.
