Information about Ian

I taught Physics at all levels for 20 years, in state comprehensive, grammar and private schools and I have been an examiner for AQA for many years. I am familiar with all exam boards including AQA, EDEXCEL, EDUQAS and OCR, at both GCSE and A-level. I have tutored students successfully throughout this time. Currently, I am not a full-time teacher, but remain working within the EDUCATION Sector where I continue to aid students in their studies. I continue as an Examiner for AQA.

My approach is to revisit topics that students find challenging, covering the concepts in detail, followed by plenty of exam practise questions to test the students understanding and help them develop sound exam technique.

Availability: weekday evenings after 5.30pm

Willing to travel: 3 miles

Experience: As well as being a secondary school teacher of Physics I have also offered individual and group tuition to students who are finding Physics a challenge, both in person and online. I have taught the AQA GCSE and A level specifications, so I have considerable experience of the intricacies of this exam board. I have also taught the EDEXCEL exam board specification and I have tutored several students in this specification and both the OCR and EDUQAS specifications, including the rather more demanding OCR B.

I have been able to assist many students over the years to improve their grades, some by many levels. I achieve this by breaking down the concepts with simple descri ptions and models and by insisting on regular practice using past paper questions.

DBS Check: Yes

Ian is brilliant - he is always on time, flexible, professional and has developed a great relationship with my son. He tutors in a way that motivates my son and is proactive and interested in the individual student. I would highly recommend Ian.

Ian has recently started tutoring my son in A level physics - he spent time understanding what he knows already and where the gaps are and is directly in contact with him about what to do each week. Feedback from my son is very positive so far.
