Ben

Studying at the University of Oxford. Currently in third year of Master's degree in Physics. Was in the top 25 academics at Eton College (Sixth Form Select), and was made an Oppidan Scholar, an academic scholarship.

Earned a gold award in the British Physics Olympiad and a merit in round 1 of the British Maths Olympiad.

I am organised, flexible, and responsive. I love finding the right way to engage with each student, and I find teaching very rewarding. I am looking to tutor students up to A-level in maths, physics and computer science; up to GCSE in biology, chemistry and French.

4 A*s in A-level Maths, Further Maths, Physics, and Computer Science
Nine 9s and one 8 at GCSE

Tutoring Approach

Students learn best one-on-one. My teaching style is relaxed and informal, so independent thinking and frequent questions are encouraged. Often, students will learn by being guided through challenging problems.

For online tutoring, I use both a tablet and laptop so that students can watch questions be solved in real time, and a copy of the page is available after the lesson for them to refer back to in future.
