I am a qualified physics teacher (in KS3, KS4 and KS5) with a PGCE Science: Physics with Mathematics

Advert description
I am a qualified teacher (QTS) with a PGCE in Science: Physics with Mathematics, Institute of Education, UCL, and a PhD in Theoretical Physics.

A recent Enhanced DBS certificate is available upon request.

I have worked as a tutor for over 6 years and I have tutored KS3, KS4, and KS5 students in mathematics and physics.

All my tutees have achieved grades above the predicted ones, up to 3 grades above.

I am passionate about physics and mathematics, I enjoy teaching, and I have a genuinely positive attitude towards one`s aspirations and wishes.

I put an emphasis on a deep understanding of each concept, theory, method, and observation, as well as acquiring and mastering technical skills. I am thorough in teaching, and besides explaining everything clearly I also provide and walk with the student through the necessary material – usually in the form of slides, interactive questions and quizzes, simulations, notes, problems and past papers / exam practice papers – for a solid understanding through assimilation of the ideas as well as practice. Problem-solving methods are discussed and explained, not only as to how a problem is solved, but also why it’s solved that way: this helps the student understand the maths and science behind the problem better, as well as develop their critical and analytical abilities that will help them tackle any other problem in maths and science as well as in life in general.

I encourage questioning, not hesitating to raise unclear points, individuality in thinking and working, having an inquisitive and creative mind, and being good friends and generosity with working time. My particular planning and delivery of the tutorials depend on the individual student’s current motivation, needs, and knowledge, as well as the particular content of the topic that is taught. I also often discuss with the student ways to learn as well as study. True learning and understanding has a multifaceted nature.

I believe that everyone has the potential to reach their aims, and I always do my utmost so that this will happen for each one of my students.

For online lessons, I use an interactive platform which allows the student to write on and answer questions on the online pages (and use them the same way that I do), and which copies the whole session on a pdf file that I email to the student after each lesson.
