I have worked with hundreds of students across a wide range of abilities, backgrounds and learning needs, including students with SEND. I understand that barriers to progress are not always about ability, as confidence, motivation, retaining knowledge or feeling overwhelmed can all make learning harder. My priority is to create a positive environment where you feel comfortable asking questions, being honest about what you find difficult and making mistakes without feeling judged.

Science can be challenging, but it is also incredibly rewarding and opens the door to a huge range of future opportunities. I enjoy making difficult ideas feel understandable and relevant, helping you connect what you learn in lessons to the world around you. I set high expectations, but my role is to encourage and support you in reaching them rather than adding unnecessary pressure.

For students aiming for the highest grades, I can also help make sense of what can sometimes feel like the “hidden rules” of exams. Whatever your starting point, you will be supported, challenged appropriately and in safe hands.
