Physics / Science / Mathematics tutor - GCSE / IGCSE / IB MYP / IB DP / A-levels (very experienced)

From 66.99 £ /h

I am an interactive teacher with 8 years of experience in schools and 16 years as a tutor. I have a strong background in physics and astronomy/astrophysics, and I have taught these subjects at the university level. My academic background includes studies in science, education, and science communication. My teaching approach is friendly, open, and engaging while maintaining clarity and directness. I believe in using a variety of materials, interactive simulations, and conceptual learning to make the learning experience enriching and enjoyable. As an educator, my online teaching abilities have significantly improved over time, and I am well-adapted to the online learning environment, especially given the previous situation with Covid.

Teaching Methodology:
Effective teaching goes beyond simply presenting information or repeating the same material. To truly help students grasp concepts, it is essential to approach subjects from various angles, allowing students time to make connections. Making learning interesting in a classroom setting requires practice and skill, and I have honed these abilities over many years. I am dedicated to continually enhancing my teaching skills as I both teach and learn myself!

Reason for pricing:
I am an expensive tutor, there is no doubt that my hourly rate is high, but there is a reason for this. I am very good at what I do. I am supportive, caring and I listen, reflect and share ideas / solutions / resources with students to work with and on both in our sessions and outside of it too. I make students feel comfortable to talk to me, make mistakes and engage with the content to the best of their abilities.

About Me

I am keen to get back into tutoring one or two students on a regular (weekly) basis if possible. I have taught students of all kinds from those who were very strongly mathematically inclined to those who initially believed that they would not be able to do mathematics. Eventually through practice and collaboration, we (the student and I) developed an understanding that with a growth mindset, every student can be mathematically inclined through hard work and difficulties in understanding.

Education

Honours degree in Astrophysics from Monash University (4 years long).
A Masters degree in Science communication from Australian National University (2 years).
An iPGCE (educational degree) from University of Sheffield (1 year degree).
A Masters of Education, teaching and learning from University of Sheffield - which is the natural extension to my iPGCE - Finished 2021.

Experience / Qualifications

I am a international school teacher with 8 years experience and a tutor of 16 years experience. I have previously run my own tutoring business in Australia which had over 40 students and 10 tutors who I helped improve teaching practice and ran all aspects of the small business. I have taught physics and astronomy at university level and been in and around middle / high school education for many years, including previously working for the IB itself.

I have started tutoring intensively since September 2013 in Malaysia and I specialize in tutoring math for O-Level and A-Level Cambridge (CIE) degrees. My goal is to motivate students to learn all fundamentals by heart in the first place and implement all gained knowledge in order to solve complex questions. Hence, various methods have been used to achieve this goal since I started tutoring and with the experience that I gained through the interaction with different students I was able to help them to achieve higher marks than their expectations.

I am an interactive teacher with 5 years of experience. My teaching style is friendly and open, yet clear and direct. I incorporate a variety of materials, interactive simulations, and conceptual learning whenever possible. My abilities in education are exceptionally strong and continually improving with each tutoring session. Due to the previous situation with Covid, online teaching has become second nature to me, and I am delighted to assist you in your online learning journey.

Teaching Methodology:
To effectively teach a student, it is not sufficient to merely take notes or review the same material repeatedly. Students need time to connect concepts by approaching subjects from various angles. Making learning interesting in a classroom setting requires practice and skill, and I have been honing these abilities over the years, constantly seeking improvement as both a teacher and a learner myself!

I am an interactive teacher of 5 years experience. My way of teaching is friendly and open, but clear and direct. I use lots of materials and interactive simulations and conceptual learning where possible. My abilities in education are incredibly strong and getting better every time I tutor. Given the previous situation with Covid. Online teaching has become second nature and I am happy to help your learn online as well.

Teaching methodology:
In order to teach a student effectively, it cannot simply be a matter of taking notes or going over the same material again and again. Students need time to connect concepts by approaching subjects from many angles. It takes practice and skill to make learning in a classroom interesting. I have been developing those skills over many years and continue to try and do so as I teach and learn myself!

80% of my students got accepted in the 2025 exam, I am sure I can help you out in the 2026 exam!

TU Delft is Europe's most prestigious university for aerospace studies, preparing some of the best engineers. However the selection procedure is tough and demanding, and only those prepared have a chance to succeed.

As a TU Delft student, I know from first hand how stressfull this process is, and can therefore help you succeed in the preparation of these exams. I have previous experience as a tutor back in high school, helping students improve their grades from Cs to As.

Moreover, I have an extensive knowledge on the subjects tested on these exams, having taken them myself, completed the courses at university with excellent grades and teaching over 10 students for the entrance exam.

Throughout the class, I will use a presentation to explain the main concepts of each exam (Maths, Physics and Aerospace Engineering), focusing on those subjects the student is struggling with most. After this, I will help the student complete some practice excercises, and then assign extra practice to complete on their own time. These exercises will then be reviewed in the following class to ensure the topics have been understood.

I am looking forward to help you in your journey as an aerospace engineer!
