7 Years experience of tutoring on line for:
GCSE Chemistry, GCSE Biology, GCSE Physics

Alevel Chemistry
A Level Biology

I like to nurture confidence in a supportive environment rather than utilizing a very high tech. approach to online tutoring.
When students know it is OK to make mistakes deep learning can take place. In Science particularly students can feel anxious and worried about making mistakes. I try and help students understand that making mistakes is not only OK, but also a necessary, inevitable and useful part of learning. We work through examination questions and problems together to develop the skills needed for the examinations.

Fully qualified teacher with over 20 years experience as a full-time teacher, tutor and examiner.
Online tutor who creates a supportive environment for students to develop and achieve.
My fee covers tuition, preparation of tailored resources, marking and feedback each week via the VLE

2nd in Science for a high achieving independent school.
BSc (Hons), PGCE Post Compulsory Education, GTP, QTS.

Penny has been an outstanding tutor for our daughter since Year 9. Not only did she help improve Sophia’s understanding of Chemistry, Biology, and Physics, but she also made a huge difference to her confidence and enjoyment of the subjects. One of the biggest achievements was helping Sophia progress to a level where she was able to study the individual sciences at GCSE. Over the years we saw her grow from being unsure of herself to becoming genuinely confident in science, so much so that she went on to choose both Chemistry and Biology at A-Level. Penny is patient, encouraging, reliable, and explains complex topics in a way that is easy to understand. We are incredibly grateful for all the support, guidance, and encouragement she has given Sophia throughout the years. I would highly recommend Penny to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and supportive science tutor.

Penny has been tutoring my daughter for close to two years now. Her calm and patient approach has helped my daughter’s confidence immensely. Her grades also went up. I have also found Penny’s practise of monitoring school assessments to identify weak areas very reassuring and productive.

Penny has been helping my son for A level Chemistry for over a year. Penny is very organised and responds to our queries in a timely manner. She also has lots of resources and always tailors the lessons to the needs of the student. We highly recommend Penny. Great Chemistry tutor!
