I can draw on this experience to identify gaps in your understanding and boost your confidence and, if that is your aim, ensure you are ready for public examinations. I also have experience preparing students for GCSE Astronomy.

**Qualifications**
BSc (Hons) Physics (Manchester University), PGCE Sciences (Chelsea College, London University), MSc Sciences Education (Manchester Metropolitan University).

**Where**
I am based in Wickford, Essex. You can either visit me or I can travel within Wickford or to the nearby towns of Billericay, Rayleigh, Basildon and South Woodham Ferrers.

**Cost**
I invoice for tutoring at the rate of £42 per hour.

He is very approachable, which helped me ask about areas I was uncertain of. He was also very patient with concepts I found particularly tricky, helping using visual aids and approaches tried and tested over many years. This teaching style worked particularly well in small groups, from which I greatly benefitted over the course of my A-levels.

Philip was my GCSE and A-level physics teacher. He always did his best to make sure everybody understood the content, often providing alternative explanations and mathematical derivations to help you understand the content. I was always encouraged to practise on a regular basis, keeping track of revision and topics that I needed to practise more. He was very helpful in helping me to gain a better understanding of the topics that I struggled to get my head around. Fast forward 3 years, I am a year away from graduating my degree in astrophysics and I have Philip to thank for helping me get here.
