Information about Nigel
Qualified to B.Sc, Ph.D level I have been successfully tutoring Maths and Physics to GCSE and A-level for 8 years.I find both Maths and Physics totally fascinating subjects, and try to instil some of my enthusiasm for them into my students.
I am married to a teacher, who is qualified to B.A and PGSE and also works as a private tutor. We work very much as a team, with her tutoring the younger students, while I concentrate on the older ones.
Availability: Weekdays late mornings, afternoons and evenings.
Although I prefer to find weekday slots, I am prepared to work on Saturday late mornings or afternoons if a weekday slot cannot be found.
Please note that I only work from my home, where I have all my teaching resources readily to hand.
Willing to travel: Home Only
Experience: After getting my Ph.D I worked as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow, where I had a number of lecturing duties.
After my time as a Research Fellow, I joined the scientific branch of the Civil Service, where I worked on a number of projects in the field of electronics and communications.
As a general guide I expect to improve a student`s performance by at least one grade. Sometimes I can achieve an improvement of two or more grades, but, of course, that depends on the student putting in the necessary work.
While I clearly cannot name references the following are extracts from some emails sent to me.
"Thought you would like to know Cam got an A* for Maths and an A in Further Maths..... Thanks again for your tuition which he really enjoyed and found very helpful." 13/08/2013.

My daughter is in lower sixth and has been having A Level Maths tutoring with Nigel for approximately 6 weeks. He is very polite, approachable and excellent at communicating. She is finding the tutoring very helpful and feels it is really helping her course work.

Thank you Nigel for all your support and effort, for being flexible and adaptable on numerous occasions and most importantly for increasing Adam`s confidence in Physics at A level.
Much appreciated and highly recommended.
