Information About Mark

Personal Description: I relocated to Scarborough at the end of August 2011 having lived in Nottingham for 3 years and Malton for 1 year. I'm 26 years old. I currently teach science to students up to the age of 16 in Scarborough. I studied Pharmacology at the University of Newcastle, graduating 5 years ago and going on to to complete a PGCE in Science (Biology) at Nottingham Trent University.

I am from Scarborough originally and so I know the area well, I will be happy to tutor students in my own home or elsewhere. My hobbies include reading, football, going to the gym, cycling and music/films.

Tutoring Experience: - 3 years experience as a science teacher.
- experience of teaching biology to a-level.
- have tutored maths and english to students from both primary and secondary, in school as part of the governments 'Making Good Progress' scheme.

Tutoring Approach: Below are some of the skill sets I would hope to pass on to students… ■ Reading between the lines
■ Deciding how to tackle a problem
■ Seeing how to break a task down
■ Generating ideas
■ Organising ideas
■ Identifying the main points
■ Generalising
■ Checking and self-correction strategies
■ Securing concepts
■ Pattern spotting
■ Identifying relationships
■ Articulating reasons and giving explanations
■ Risk taking
■ Making mistakes without fear of failure
