Hi there! I’m a Natural Sciences student at Cambridge, and I’m passionate about helping students feel confident, capable, and even excited about science — while also smashing their exams. I know firsthand how overwhelming school science can feel at times, so my lessons are designed to meet you where you are, no matter your level or background.

My approach balances two things I believe are equally important: nailing exam technique and building a real love for the subject. That means we’ll spend plenty of time working through past exam questions together. I’ll walk you through how to break down tricky problems, spot the key information, and write clear, structured answers that hit every mark. We’ll go at your pace, and you’ll never feel rushed or embarrassed to ask questions. I’ll also share my own tips and tricks for revising efficiently and avoiding the common mistakes that cost students easy marks.

But we won’t just focus on exams! I love sharing the “cool stuff” behind the syllabus: how the physics you learn in class explains everyday things, how biology concepts connect to my own university work, or how chemistry shapes the world around us. I find that when students understand why a topic matters, it’s much easier to remember and enjoy it.

Every session is tailored to you: if you want to move fast, we can. If you need extra time to go over a tricky concept, that’s totally fine too. I aim to help you feel more confident in class, improve your grades, and walk away from each lesson actually curious about what we’ll learn next.
