Brian

I am a Chemistry specialist (to PhD level) and highly experienced teacher of 20+ years. I first graduated with a BSc in Chemistry followed by an MSc in Analytical Chemistry. I completed my PhD in 1998 (synthesis and characterisation of superconducting materials) and worked as a researcher in the USA and UK before entering the teaching profession in 2003.

I have worked across a number of schools at a middle leadership level, where I have gained considerable teaching experience with students (11-18 ages) across the entire ability range. I enjoy the hands on nature of my subject and the interactions I have with students supporting their development towards reaching their potential. I also currently mark A-level Chemistry examination scri pts for an exam board in England.

I have been tutoring students for more than 15 years now (face to face lessons at my home or at the students home) and have also been tutoring online for the last eight years. The majority of my tutoring time is focused on A-level Chemistry (OCR A, OCR B Salters, AQA and EDEXCEL examination boards) followed by GCSE Biology, Chemistry and Physics (OCR, AQA and EDEXCEL) and GCSE Mathematics (OCR, AQA and EDEXCEL). I adopt an interactive and relaxed online tutoring style, working with students to develop their skills, confidence and subject knowledge. I have assembled a considerable range of materials to support students whatever their particular needs on any topic area.
