Personal Description:
A former lecturer at Middlesbrough College who is also a Chartered Engineer, Company Director and MSc Graduate, with 30+ years experience, gained predominantly by working for world-class pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturers, at varying levels of seniority, in areas of Quality, Compliance, Validation, IT, Instrumentation and Electrical. I have a great ability to make the subjects enjoyable for any age of student.
Training Experience:
Engineering involves a significant amount of IT, therefore I'm able to motivate students to achieve good outcomes in these subjects. I have many past students who have gained a better understanding and grades due to my friendly approach.
I certainly benefited from private tuition delivered by an industry professional as a young student, which helped to lay the foundations of my career. I have been a trainer since 2009 and I'm a former lecturer at Middlesbrough College in Electronic and Electrical Engineering.
Training Approach:
I always make the subject suit the audience by tailoring my lessons to the requirements of the student. I always try different approaches to ensure a good level of understanding. Significant improvements have been made by my maths students, as shown in their Grades. One student went from an F to a Grade C, just missing out on a B.

David is very engaging, I am so pleased we found him!

From Kirsty (/5): Only 4 lessons in and already David has a good understanding of my sons needs and a good working relationship with him. My son is even doing set homework without complaint and I can see progress already. Would highly recommend.

From Anthony (/5): Quick to respond and on our first meeting was very helpful in making sure I received the correct advice and tuition for my I.T requirements.
From Sandra (/5): We are very happy with Dave's tuition. He was a tutor for our son at GCSE level and did a great job. He was friendly and amenable which goes far with a teenager. He was obviously knowledgeable on the subject and tutored our son efficiently and at the speed required, always happy to establish where the knowledge gaps were by asking outright and questioning and observation. Dave had patience when some aspects took longer than others, an essential quality for success!
Dave was always willing to help and to work around my work pattern, coming both to my house and my parents on short notice.
I would thoroughly recommend.

Reply from: David:Many thanks for the feedback, it's been a pleasure to help.

The one to one tuition really helped discover his weak areas and Dave concentrated on these.

From Michelle (/5): David, thank you so much for the superb Maths tuition which greatly assisted our son in his SATS. Your engaging manner and patience really enabled him to build upon his understanding of the subject and clarify areas which he hadn't fully grasped. We would highly recommend you to anyone looking for some extra support in the subject.
Reply from: David:Many thanks for your feedback - it was a pleasure to meet you and your family. Dave.
From Andrea (/5): Hi David,
James is settling into the sessions he enjoys them and finds them productive.
He is aware that he needs to plan what he needs you help him with each week.
Thanks Andrea

From Mary (/5): Very friendly and professional. My children enjoy the lessons and are always looking forward to their next lesson.
From Kerri (/5): David is very professional and had he been closer geographically, we would have continued to use his as a physics / maths tutor.
From Katherine (/5): David is a very patient tutor and my son has responded to him well and is already starting to enjoy maths rather than just tolerate it!
Reply from: David:Many thanks for your comments.
From Michael (/5): D.E. has recently been giving me a series of lessons. Not being an exam course he had to quickly understand the situation and requirements, which he helpfully and usefully did, so I have been able to make good progress to acquiring knowledge.
From Samantha (/5): I was really pleased with Dave from initial contact through to the tuition. He has always maintained a professional although friendly approach. Kay has taken to him really well, which is more than evident in her interest in the subject and improvement in grade.
