Edmund

I like the way science and maths let us describe the workings of the world. I hope to pass my understanding and enthusiasm on to others.

I am used to sympathetically coaching young people in unfamiliar skills, having also been the principal teacher for a university folk dance club for five years.

Tutoring Experience

I have three years' experience conducting tutorials in Materials Science at Cambridge University, having myself studied Natural Sciences there, including two years of Physics and one of Chemistry.

In 2018, I taught the Maths and Physics component of the NCC International Foundation Programme for Engineers (of around GCSE/A-level level) at the Star Exeter language school. Since then I have tutored Physics Chemistry and Maths to A-level and Biology to GCSE.

Feel free to contact me even if you are studying for a different qualification or an usual scientific topic - I have helped people studying ophthalmic dispensing, perovskite solar cells and non-destructive testing as well as school science / maths, and may well be able to help you too.

Tutoring Approach

I enjoy showing you real-world applications of what we are studying. In our lessons, we will draw diagrams and break problems down into bite-size steps, and I will train you to ask yourself helpful questions such as “What do I already know?”, “Is this a sensible answer?” and “Did I expect those units?”.
