Maths, Physics, Chemistry A-Level and GCSE. Test Prep Tutoring. General Problem Solving Tutoring.

From 26 £ /h

Specialized tutoring for maths, physics and chemistry A-Level's and GCSE's. I like to fuse better exam performances (improving exam techniques for example) with a deeper understanding of the subject.

"Give a student proper exam technique, and you teach him for a test. Teach a student to think, and you teach him for a lifetime." Both approaches are valid, but I believe I add substantial value to students education by developing a deeper understanding of a subject in addition to testing practice.

I also provide general problem solving tutoring beneficial for professional tests, school entry exams and those who just want to improve their critical thinking.

About Me

My Profile:
I love science; apparently I talk about it too much according to my girlfriend. Currently studying towards my PhD, I have been through the education system and understand the value of personalized learning. "Give a student better exam technique, and you teach him for a test. Teach a man to think, and you teach him for a lifetime." Good exam technique is important, but I like to add value to a students education by improving their understanding of the subject matter.

Students profile:
I solely look for students with positive attitudes. With this I believe I can add value to a students education, whatever their goal or ability.

Relevant experience:
-Teaching Assistant for a universities first year engineering class (Imperial College London).
-Tutored 11 year old maths for St Paul's school entry exam.
-IOP Publishing, Student Contributor.

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.

My approach is to focus on developing the student’s mastery of the subject through problem based learning, including preparation for exams, while developing the student’s enjoyment of the subject and ability to learn by themselves. Over the years I have worked in different roles requiring a diverse range of skills including coaching/tutoring of high school students in year 9 to year 12 mathematics and coding for primary school children.

I am looking to tutor English and Maths at any ability up to A-Level standard, and any subject up to 13+ (including verbal/non verbal reasoning). I achieved all A* at GCSE and A-Level.
I have done a child protection course, a first aid course, and I am DBS checked. I also have a TEFL qualification. I have had a lot of experience working with children and teenagers both in a tutoring environment and others(ski instructing/dance and drama coaching).
I am also able to provide assistance with LAMDA exams (or any UK acting qualifications) having gained distinctions through to Grade 8. I’ve also had experience with the National Youth Theatre, so can help with audition prep.

Hello.

I am a University of Oxford medicine graduate. I will mentor you to perform as well as possible across the board, with a focus on maths and science.

Exam results are more important than ever. The truth is that most teachers will teach in a typical way which is not conducive to actually performing as well as possible in exams across the board. The methods are too time consuming, boring and inefficient.

I will teach students to perform as well as possible in GCSE exams as quickly and efficiently as possible, regardless of your ability. I will distil the content down into the most concise, simple format and combine this with exam techniques and revision strategies which ACTUALLY WORK to help you achieve similar results in any subject.

The skills I will teach come from my own experience of achieving 14A*s at GCSE and 5A*s at A-level, even in subjects I was not good at. The skills I teach can be applied to any subject and will help you to learn faster and more efficiently.

Anyone can achieve this regardless of current academic performance. I will mentor you continuously and meet once weekly to discuss new strategies, address concerns and ensure you perform as well as possible with minimum stress.

In my classes the students will be a part of an interactive session of solving time-sensitive short questions as a brainstorming exercise, proceeding with covering topics from the start of the syllabus, solving questions as we move on and understanding the difficult level that the student is easily able to pass. This will be followed by recognising the topics that the student is finding difficult and then explaining them through short lectures and diagrams, helping the student have a better grasp at the concepts. I will ensure constant feedback after each of my classes to understand the students problems and tailoring my lessons according to that. Moreover the students' progress will be monitored and tracked through short weekly assessments based on past paper questions allowing the student to be comfortable with the exam-style questions and avoid falling for the exam pressure. Please feel free to reach out if you have further questions and I hope to teach you soon!

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.

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.

MSc Chemistry 2019. Expert Chemistry tutor, specialising in advanced exam techniques to help students secure exceptional results.

I’m a devoted GCSE and A Level Chemistry tutor with 6+ years’ experience, specialising in the AQA, OCR and Edexcel exam boards. After earning my first-class Masters in Chemistry, I dedicated my career to helping students master exam technique, equipping them with skills to avoid common pitfalls and achieve outstanding results.

My approach is a hybrid system that combines learning with exam preparation, ensuring everything covered is directly applicable to improving exam performance. On average, students using my system improve by 2.7 grades, with over half increasing by two or more grades. My engaging and high-energy teaching style breaks down even the most challenging topics into clear, concise explanations, making Biology easier to understand.
