I am a qualified science teacher and university lecturer. During my earlier career, I was an instructor in the Royal Navy and a technical consultant in broadcasting and telecommunications. I am an Electrical Engineer with a Master's Degree in Applied Computing and a lifelong student of the sciences. My big passion is Physics, but I have also taught Biology and Chemistry to Years 7 and 8. I firmly believe that learning science is an adventure and it should be fun!

Tutoring Experience

5 years as an Instructor Officer in the Royal Navy, teaching Mathematics, English, Electrical Theory, Electronics and Electrical Machines.
Qualified teacher, with teaching experience at schools and universities in the south of England

Tutoring Approach

Produce a structured series of tutor sessions to address any areas of weakness and to move forward to new and relevant topics
Ensure familiarity with the types of assessment that will be used (e.g. typical exam questions)
Enjoy learning science!
