I graduated from Pembroke College, Cambridge June 2013 with a BA Hons and MSci in Natural Sciences, specialising in Experimental and Theoretical Physics. Since graduating I have been working as a tutor for all levels of secondary school science and mathematics and preparing students for application to Oxbridge and Russell Group universities.

During my time at university I was involved in a wealth of educational projects. For example, through the Cavendish Laboratory Educational Outreach, I was placed part time at Coleridge Community College to act as an assistant physics teacher in my third year. I have taught science, mathematics and English as a foreign language during my summer vacations in schools in India and China.

I am passionate about helping children to secure a solid education to provide the foundations for a successful career later in life. My Cambridge education has opened up a wealth of opportunities and I too want to help children receive the best education they can so they can go on to achieve great things.

The children I teach never fail to surprise me in the wealth of their knowledge. Each session I am exposed to new ways of thinking or applications in areas I had never considered before. I too benefit from the tutoring experience and draw on these lessons to continually improve myself and ensure I remain the best tutor I can.

There are three roles I can take as a tutor. Firstly, I can act as a resource to help the child through homework assignments and explain difficult material in textbooks. Secondly, I can act as a teacher and deliver lessons in parallel to the school curriculum, tailoring a custom made course to target the child's interests. Finally, I can act as a mentor to help the child manage their own learning in order that they may maximise their potential. Usually clients request a healthy mix of all three and as the tutorials progress we can continually evolve the approach to exactly meet the interests of you and your child
