Professional, Award-Winning Science and Literacy Tutor
Introduction and Key Recognitions.
I am a highly experienced Science teacher, recognised as the recipient of the “Top UK Tutor Award 2025” for outstanding contributions to education. My dedication to teaching has also been commended by Ofsted inspectors, several local schools, tutoring organisations as Principal, and countless students and parents.

Teaching Experience and Subjects
With over 30 years in the classroom, I deliver expert tuition across Primary, Key Stage 3, GCSE, and A Level Science. My specialisms include A Level Chemistry and Physics. Additionally, I teach Primary English and Maths, supporting pupils preparing for SATs and KS4 Maths examinations. I also run workshops in reading, writing, and poetry to boost literacy and numeracy skills at all key stages.
Teaching Methods and Philosophy
My approach centres on stepwise instruction, targeted questioning, and robust exam technique practice. I focus on developing literacy and numeracy, using differentiated and graded activities tailored to each student’s needs. Every session includes feedback and assessment to guide future learning, as well as homework or extension work to reinforce progress.
I believe every student can excel when provided with the right tools and support. My teaching creates a positive, interactive environment where learners feel confident and engaged.
Impact and Student Success
My students consistently achieve improved SATs, GCSE, and A Level results. By employing proven metacognitive strategies, I help pupils raise their achievement and attainment. These methods support students’ progress and significantly enhance their learning experience. As their confidence and knowledge grow, they feel more at ease with exams and reach higher standards.
