Mathematics, physics and Basic Electrical Engineering

From 34 £ /h

I specialise in tutoring applied mathematics and physics with special emphasis on how these subjects relate to electrical power system design and construction. Specific subjects include:
- Electrical power generation
- Medium Voltage distribution systems
- High Voltage transmission
- Power system protection
- Low Voltage distribution including Motor control centres
- Lighting
- Emergency power systems.

This class is suitable for students who are studying intermediate to senior level electrical engineering and wish to enhance their understanding of the application of electrical power system theory to circuit design and practical engineering problem solving.

The tutoring can be tailored to meet individual students' requirements.

Extra information

A basic level of maths and physics (up to GCSE level) will be helpful but not essential.

About Me

I have worked as an electrical engineer for the majority of my career and have a total of 40 years of experience gained in the UK, Holland, where I spent 22 years of my life and in Indonesia where I lived and worked for 5 years in the 1980's. After University I took a job in the steel industry which gave me a very strong background in design and engineering in the harshest and most demanding of environments and this proved to be invaluable in my later career designing and building power plants and transmission lines in the deserts of Saudi Arabia. My working experience as a teacher/lecturer is limited to 5 years at a technical college but I have always had the ability to share my enthusiasm for electrical engineering with those who have been under my charge. Whilst I have always used my knowledge of electrical engineering theory to great effect, I consider my ability to pass on my practical experience in the real world to be of equal value. I am articulate and organised with a good sense of humour which I have always found to be essential to the establishment of good communications.

I am a Masters graduate in Public Administration at the University of Leiden and have a Bachelors Degree in Economics from University of Leeds, UK. While taking a year out after my first degree at the University of Leeds in the UK, I decided to unleash my teaching potential thereby making an impact in the lives of selected year 11 students in my neighbourhood struggling with core subjects such as Maths, English among other subjects.

This was an enjoyable experience and I am glad I am able to put smiles on their faces and add to the knowledge of my students. I look forward to working with students within my territory regardless of their knowledge levels in the subjects I teach hoping that I would be able to make the same impact on them as well.

I am an experienced tutor:

English all ages and stages up to GCSE
Biology up to A-level level.
Chemistry up to A-level
Mathematics from beginners up to As
Arabic from beginners up to A-levels
Grammar school entry exams; 11+

I aim to adapt to the nature of the class to the needs of the student, I am very flexible and my approach isn't fixed because I understand each student has a different learning ability. I set Homeworks without overloading the student but to actually make the information get fixed and be put into practice.
Also, I'm more than happy to repeat information and explain topics that students might have missed in school or at college and haven't understood.
I try to make this experience effective by employing intaractive teaching.
I also offer updates to the parents on the progress of their child in a kind way where they are able to participate in their child's learning and feel involved in reminding the child to do homework in case they forget to.

I will be first assessing the student's needs and weaknesses as well as their strengths to provide me with a guideline on where to start.
I could also provide Mock exam sessions to boost and strengthen the student's performance and confidence.

Math certificates are becoming more and more important at different levels of education. For several universities, math certificates such as SAT or GMAT are compulsory tests students must have. To get good scores on these tests, it is advised for students to approach them as soon as possible.
Math is not only about the formulas but also the stories of mathematicians and how they generated their ideas as well as its application. Learning math is one of the best ways to develop logical thinking which enhances problem-solving skills for students.
In Vietnam, I was trained to be a professional math teacher. With 2 years of experience being a teacher and a tutor, I had opportunities to work with students of different ages (9 to 18) and different levels (mental math, IB, IGCSE, A-level, SAT, SSAT). This makes me believe that I can bring the greatest value to students in the UK.
I offer classes for different levels: IGCSE, A-Level, IB, GMAT, SSAT, SAT, and math for college students (algebra, calculus, geometry).

The subjective learning has become a crucial task in today’s life where gadgets play a major role in taking away time. I can be your friend, teacher and also a parent who always nurtures you with care in learning a subject with ease.

I have an experience of teaching and getting First Class results for about multiples of hundred a year with a little experience of about 5 years. Give me a chance and I will never let you down in your studies

English and Math are beautiful subjects that may be challenging for some but are not. I specialize in helping students learn the English Language and Math for personal use or preparing for exams like the SAT, GCSE, GRED, and so on. I aim to provide a comfortable teaching experience for my students which would also challenge them but not be overwhelming. I also give assignments and homework to track my students' performance. I ensure i work hand in hand with my students for them to achieve their goals.

My teaching style includes;
Student-Centred Approach - You’re not just a number in a seat. I shape my teaching around your goals, your pace, and your strengths. Whether you're a visual learner, a hands-on doer, or someone who thrives on discussion, I’ll adapt to help you thrive.

Active Learning All the Way - Expect to participate, problem-solve, and collaborate. From real-world scenarios to group challenges, I believe the best learning happens when you’re actively engaged — not just passively listening.

Open Communication - Got questions? Ask away. Confused? Let’s break it down. I aim to create an environment where no one’s afraid to speak up, and feedback flows both ways. We learn with each other, not just from each other.

Real-World Relevance - Whether we're diving into theory or practice, I’ll always connect it back to the real world — careers, current events, and everyday life. My goal is to make sure you walk away thinking, “This actually matters.”

A Positive Vibe - Learning should be fun — yes, even math can have their moments. I bring energy, humour, and empathy into my teaching so you feel motivated and supported every step of the way.
