As a qualified teacher I bring a diverse set of skills to my role as a tutor. Not only can I act as curriculum expert, able to design and deliver content effectively at a wide range of ability levels, but I am also able to use my knowledge of the science of learning to help develop life long learners.

In terms of lessons, I focus on what the student needs rather than delivering arbitrary content - I find that supporting the student in identifying areas that they need the most help is critical as this helps us prioritise our time and helps the student develop a more complete picture of their own scheme of knowledge, which can support more effective independent practice.

My ideal session would be to work through a selection of practical exercises as a means of identifying potential gaps in understanding. I would then aim to provide a range of alternative perspectives to view the gap from, before helping the student identify an approach that makes sense to them. I also like to provide support from first principles by reenforcing understanding around a subject area such that solving problems becomes less of an exercise in memory work, and more an exercise in the practical application of well understood concepts.

With all that being said, I am by no means rigid and I would certainly be prepared to have a chat about what sort of support you are after. If I can provide that support in a proficient manner, then I'd be happy to do so.

Since using Jamie for my son he has significantly improved in his physics. Jamie’s teaching style is clear and well structured, making complex concepts easier to grasp.

Jamie has been tutoring my son in both A level physics and maths and has made such a positive impact on him. He is friendly, punctual and reliable. Jamie has the patience and skills to be able to break down course content into something more manageable. He has also helped my son with exam techniques which has aided my son in recent exams too which in turn has built his confidence further. Thank you!

Jamie is the only tutor I’ve have used for my daughter who is in year 11 & I didn’t feel that I needed to look elsewhere! He gives her confidence, discipline & structure with her learning! She managed to retain information he teaches her & she enjoys her sessions. You can really tell that he is enthusiastic about what he does & it’s great to see! Would highly recommend
