have graduated with a degree in chemical engineering from the University of Edinburgh, UK. I am also an Erasmus Mundus scholar with a master's in Analytical Chemistry from Uppsala University. Currently, I am pursuing a PhD in physical chemistry.

I have been tutoring since 2012 to fund my education expenses. I formally began tutoring in 2014 as part of my vocational training as a teacher in Ghana, funded by the University of Edinburgh. The formal training has taught me a lot about curriculum development, time management, and fusing my teaching methodology to my students’ needs. I have been tutoring in Physics, Chemistry, and Math, in person and online; the hybrid model has allowed me to reach out and teach students in 8 different countries. I have successful students from these past nine years who have not only commended my work ethic but can also stand testament to my enthusiasm.

My excellent academic career has nurtured in me a natural talent for teaching. My experiences have taught me how to tackle one problem at a time, and I believe that using this approach—paired with my unconventional examples that force students to think outside the box—I can truly provide an excellent understanding and explanation. My teaching methodology is based on two main things: skill development and adaptation. Initially, I create a skeleton of the most suitable methodology tailored to the preferred curriculum, after which, I adapt that lecture to the specific needs of the student based on their knowledge and grasp of the concepts. Second, I like to develop analytical and scientific ability along with knowledge in my students, and for that, I use a combination of resources in the form of worksheets, class tasks, and past papers. Last, I believe in the strong ethic of providing feedback to the parents, so that they are aware of their child’s progress.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Which subject(s) do you teach?
I teach math, mechanics, statistics, chemistry and physics. I also teach biology up to GCSE level.

When are you available? My timetable is quite flexible. I am happy to work weekdays, week evening and weekends.

Which ages and levels do you teach? The majority of my students are between the ages of 10-18, but I also teach college Students. I am also helping foundation and first year university students.

Which qualifications do you prepare your students for? GCSE, o-level, A/S-level, A-level, IB, School entrance exams and SATs

Describe your arrangements for online tutoring? I use Zoom online sessions since it has many tools and features specially designed for interactive and visual learning. I am fully equipped with modern gadgets for e-learning. I use Google drive and docs to share files.

My approach as a private tutor is based on an active and personalized learning method. I adapt to each student's specific needs, offering clear explanations followed by practical exercises to solidify the concepts. In organic chemistry, I use diagrams and concrete examples to simplify complex mechanisms. Each lesson begins with a review of previous concepts, then we move on to new concepts accompanied by exercises, followed by a detailed review. I ensure that the student masters each step before moving on to the next. My lessons are suitable for all levels, from high school to university, as well as professionals wishing to deepen their knowledge of organic chemistry and processes. My goal is to make each student independent and confident in the subject.

Life Sciences are intertwined with each other- Biology and Chemistry to Physics and Maths. A strong comprehension of atomic principles will allow students to see links between taught disciplines and support their successes not only in Chemistry, but in all related subjects!

One of my principles is integrating taught metrical into the skill of writing exams and approaching in-class assessments! We will go step-by-step through the annual curriculum and identify areas of knowledge based on the amount of attention we would need to dedicate to them.
