Anthony

I am a former Head of Science with over ten years teaching experience in schools with an additional thirteen years of experience tutoring students privately.
I offer my clients a solid, comprehensive, and responsive tuition experience, in all the sciences together with mathematics covering all the English and international examination boards (this includes, the International Baccalaureate syllabi).
My services have assisted many students over the years to improve their grades and gain confidence needed to succeed in examinations. I also work well with special needs students; and those students looking for more control over their own education.

Tutoring Experience

To date, I have accumulated over twenty-three years of teaching experience in: biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics from primary school level straight through to A-levels. I also, have about twenty years’ experience working with special needs students - particularly, with engaging Asperger syndrome spectrum kids.

Tutoring Approach

In regards to on-site tuition or on-line teaching or/and learning, I prefer to work to a pre-planned agenda where possible (with at least a couple of days prior-notice in regards to materials to be covered). This allows me to properly plan and prepare my lessons to form a basis for instruction and learning to maximise the benefit for the student. My lessons (whether on-line or otherwise) always take into account the student's current depth of knowledge and aim to build from there in order to create an enjoyable interactive learning experience.
I do support my lessons with friendly learning targets, pre-tests, progress tests and honest progress reports on strengths and weakness. Students can expect plenty of supportive homework delivered to check learning, help identify areas for further learning and build confidence.
Advice and support on examination techniques is routinely incorporated into all of my lessons (and homework) to match the required specified syllabus undertaken by students. This includes good support with English and Maths literacy - to get students solidly prepared for their examinations.
I am very calm, patient, and supportive with my students. My lessons are structured to provide students with exactly what they need to know. All material provided is well explained, and tailored to meet each student's individual specific needs: includes a variety of hands-on-materials and varied learning styles support with after-lesson homework.
