About Me
Hi there,
I have received an A* in both Psychology and English Literature A level whereby I can proudly say I was an industrious, inspiring student and can do the same for other students as well. I had studied one year for my psychology with neuroscience degree and felt as if I wanted something more rewarding whereby I chose teaching as my career. It was a tough decision especially because I love learning about the brain and understanding more about people.

Dynamic and motivated teacher of 33 years (Graduate of EDHEC, Scientific Baccalaureate with honors, 2 years of preparatory class EC scientific option and 5 years of experience in private home-based courses), I propose courses and intensive reviews in Mathematics all levels and all sections until the Terminale.

Control of achievements, awareness of a practical methodology by writing cards, intensive training in solving typical exercises.

Make room for practice rather than theory in order to optimize the time spent together in solving typical exercises requiring a method (noted together on a form with the course associated with it). The goal is to react in the best way possible to a statement.

The Chomskian Linguistics model: what this course focuses on and how I can help you

The premise: A theory of universal grammar that aims to explain why syntax has the properties it does, and how the human child comes to the world with ‘genetic guidance’ in their native language competence.

This is a cognitive approach to grammar, not merely taxonomic (I am aware that most schools in the UK don’t teach grammar).

Some parts of the theory (which spans 70 years to date) are taught in different universities at different stages of its development. Students have approached me to know more (or clarify) the Minimalist program (1995 onwards) which has aimed to reduce the conceptual apparatus and simplify the theory. We shall look at VPISH (VP-internal subject hypothesis) and VP shells as well as doing away with intermediate projections which have relied on X-bar theory. The latter is still taught at some freshers’ classes. A good grasp of grammatical categories (noun, verb, adverb) will be necessary as well as grammatical functions (predicate, subject, inflection, adjunct). Some courses are still relying on binding and c-command, as well as other theoretical landmarks which are necessary for understanding the evolution of the theoretical model.

Exercises set and essay titles will rely on the student’s targeted requirements (as per their own university). For those who want to prepare for a forthcoming university course, or wish to explore this grammatical model, we shall follow UK authors who have shown a more sympathetic approach to learning.

Just done your mock exams? Are you ready to pull your grades all the way up? Or maybe looking to secure your 'safe' grade? Look no further. As a full time Data Lead and Exams Officer at Conisborough College, I have a unique view of performance metrics, and the latest knowledge on GCSE exams. With a specialism in Maths, Further Maths, and Physics, my style of teaching is an expression of my experiences as a student and a tutor.
My past tutoring experiences range from teaching secondary school classrooms and a lot of work with 1-on-1's. While I have had State Schooling my successful early experiences with exams (SATS, GCSEs) set me up with a solid foundation and ideal to approach exams by myself and eventually find my area of expertise in everything Maths and Physics.
When it comes to exam preparation, my strategy is always textbook oriented. My principle in education has always been to know what I don't know and then deal with my not-knowing of that chapter/area.
I like to use what is known/understood as a warm up and get creative with it, probing the student's baselines and tactics.
The warm up also gives you the winning-feeling about the subject and this is a feeling that grows and brings clarity such that it guides me year in, year out to go and understand every chapter to answer every topical exam question, and it can for you too.
I offer in person, and online teaching and am willing to provide references on demand, but first let's have a video call to discuss your needs further!
Do you speak French?

Have you just passed your practice exams? Are you ready to boost your grades? Or perhaps you're just looking to secure your "safe" grade? Look no further.

As Data Lead and Exams Manager at Conisborough College, I have unique insight into performance metrics and the latest developments in GCSE exams. Specializing in Mathematics, Further Mathematics, and Physics, my teaching approach reflects my experiences as a student and tutor.

I have extensive teaching experience, both in classrooms in secondary schools and in individual tutoring sessions. Although I received a state education, my successful experiences with exams (SATS, GCSEs) gave me a solid foundation and an ideal method for approaching exams independently. This is how I was able to specialize in Mathematics and Physics.

When it comes to exam preparation, my strategy always relies on textbooks. My learning principle is simple: identify what I don't know, then address those gaps.

I like to start with what is already known and understood, using it as a warm-up. This allows me to assess the student's level and strategies, while making learning more dynamic and creative. This warm-up also gives you a sense of achievement, which strengthens over time and provides essential clarity. It's this approach that has allowed me, year after year, to assimilate each chapter and be able to answer each exam question. It can do the same for you.

I offer in-person and online classes and can provide references upon request. But first, let's discuss your needs over a video call!

Tutoring for International Baccalaureate (IB) Maths AA HL/SL, Chemistry HL/SL, Physics HL/SL and for International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) International Mathematics (0607), Additional Mathematics (0606), Physics (0625) Chemistry (0620).

I aim to make sure students understand material intuitively first before delving into complicated questions and foster a friendly and patient learning environment. Instead of relying on memorising formulas, I teach students how to derive the formulas themselves, build upon their previous knowledge and use them to solve complex questions in a simple way, building their confidence in the process. To facilitate this, I use metaphors and every-day things to construct stories that help students remember concepts and relationships between them.

My lessons are tailored to each student's needs, preferences and learning style so I am able to accommodate specific requests. I can help students work on improving both overall understanding of the subject as well as detailed and thorough understanding of specific topics/sub-topics. As someone who sat these exams myself, I know what the most common mistakes in each topic are, the best exam techniques and have lots of tips, tricks and resources I can share!

I offer flexible scheduling, with availability during the day, early mornings, and late evenings for lessons online or in-person lessons near South Kensington. Please message me before booking so we can find a time that works for both of us!
If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to contact me :)

Mathematics and physics are often problematic subjects because the teacher does not have time to sit down with a student to go over point by point the poorly understood parts of the course.

With my engineering training and 5 years of experience as a private tutor, currently a student at Imperial College London, I believe I can help you fill in your gaps and regain confidence in your ability to solve mathematical and physical problems.

I can give lessons in French or English in 1 to 2 hour slots.
I can adapt to all levels up to the license.

Early Literacy is fundamental for preparing students for primary school and beyond -- creating developmentally appropriate, structured, and fun lesson plans to support literacy can have an outsize impact in instilling a joy of learning and a sense of confidence in early readers. With a background in English Literature and teaching, I specialize in early learners and students for whom reading may feel intimidating. I will provide worksheets, activities, games, and work with parents to learn about what activities and topics are the most engaging for their student.

Im Yong Zhi, a 2nd-year Electrical and Electronic Engineering student at Imperial College London, with a strong academic background in mathematics and physical sciences. I achieved 4 A* grades at A-Level, including a Top In The World award for Mathematics, and I was awarded the Dean’s List in my first year at Imperial (top 5% of the cohort).

I have over a year of online tutoring experience, specialising in GCSE and A-Level Maths and Physics, as well as admissions-focused preparation for highly competitive exams such as ESAT and Oxbridge/Imperial entrance pathways. I was also a teaching assistant for first year students for my course. I was a lab assistant, teaching students safe and pragmatic lab practices so that they could learn how to use equipment and build circuits effectively.

My approach focuses on building deep conceptual understanding alongside strong exam technique. I prioritise helping students become confident problem-solvers rather than relying on memorisation, and I tailor each session to the student’s specific weaknesses and exam goals.

For exam preparation, I emphasise:

Breaking down difficult topics into clear, structured steps
Developing efficient problem-solving strategies under time pressure
Targeted practice using past-paper style questions
Improving accuracy, speed, and exam confidence

Whether the goal is securing top GCSE/A-Level grades or preparing for competitive university admissions, I aim to provide structured, high-impact support that is focused on measurable improvement.
