Amanda

I have a friendly, patient and straight forward approach.

I have a masters and a Ph.D. in chemistry and a post graduate certificate in education in which my teaching was graded "outstanding".

I will help you unravel and understand the most difficult concepts and help you develop the skills and habits you need to excel in your studies.

Tutoring Experience

I have experience working in schools as well as extensive one to one mentoring experience. I have helped a foundation year chemistry student improve their grade for their final chemistry exam from 50% to 87%. I have helped A-level students develop the skills and habits required to excel in their subject.

I have helped A-level chemists go from a U to a B and helped top students go from a B to and A*.

With the right habits and some help you can also succeed!

Tutoring Approach

On top of teaching the subject material, my tuition sessions include going through problems step-by-step, simplifying topics that once seemed very tricky, teaching exam and revision technique, encouraging a positive attitude towards working hard and encouraging the ambition and the drive to succeed.

I have a patient, friendly and motivating approach to teaching, I have helped my tutees with both the most basic aspects of the course and the most complex with an equally supportive attitude, I help students realize their potential and just how clever they really are. I can also give guidance and information about science-related careers.
