IGCSE and IB Physics, Maths and Chemistry tutoring

From 26 £ /h

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 :)

About Me

I am an IB grad (Physics HL 7, Chemistry HL 7, Maths AA HL 7) from the Czech Republic currently studying Physics at Imperial College London. I love physics, maths and chemistry and love sharing my passion for them even more! My lessons focus on helping students understand concepts intuitively and mastering the relevant terminology and equations as well as making physics, maths and chemistry more fun and engaging! I understand how frustrating and confusing these subjects can be, and therefore am very patient and use everyday things to explain complex phenomena through analogies and stories.

3rd Year Electronic and Information Engineering student at Imperial College London. I have 3 years' experience tutoring Maths & Physics both in person and online and I am very familiar with GCSE & A-Level specification. My lessons aim to develop understanding of a topic from the ground up rather than just making students memorise lines in a textbook. This is achieved through frequent use of examples and analogies which students can visualise and relate to. On top of this I regularly provide exam practice and feedback so that students become more confident in applying their knowledge and are not intimidated by the pressure of exams. Please feel free to reach out if you have further questions and I hope to teach you soon!

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!

A final year engineering student, currently on exchange at Imperial College London, I offer private lessons in mathematics, physics and chemistry. Thanks to my two years of preparatory classes for the grandes écoles (CPGE), I have acquired a solid foundation in these subjects and a rigorous working method. Originally from France, I am fluent in French and English, which allows me to teach in both languages, depending on the student's needs. I really enjoy sharing my knowledge and I enjoy helping students understand, progress and gain confidence, whether to overcome difficulties or to improve. My goal is to support each student in a personalized way, at their own pace.

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.

Hi,

My name is Andreï, and after two years at the engineering school Centrale Paris and a gap year in quantitative finance, I’ll be starting a Master’s in Mathematics at Imperial College London in September. Alongside my studies, I offer private tutoring in maths, physics, and computer science.

With a strong academic background and a genuine passion for these subjects, I have helped students from secondary school to university over the past three years build both skills and confidence—whether their goal is to strengthen their intuition when it comes to problem solving, improve exam performance, or prepare for competitive entrance tests.

My approach to teaching is both structured and flexible. I adapt each lesson to the student’s individual needs: reviewing fundamental concepts, addressing specific difficulties, and preparing efficiently for assessments or exams. Beyond problem-solving, I aim to provide students with lasting tools—methods of reasoning, strategies for independent learning, and a clearer sense of confidence when approaching new challenges.

I would be delighted to arrange an initial conversation to better understand your goals and how I could help you achieve them. Please feel free to contact me for further information.
Best regards,
Andreï
