Frederick

Oxford Maths and Physics Tutor

I graduated from Imperial College London with a 2:1 degree in Chemistry with molecular physics. I also have a postgraduate meters in Computational physics. I have over 6000 hours of paid tutoring experience (tutoring physics, maths, further maths, chemistry and biology, at all academic levels). In addition, I also have over 6000 hours of paid mentoring experience. As of July 2019, I have been awarded a QTS. I'll be attending Oxford to do a DPhil in Physical and Theoretical Chemistry in October 2019.

From 2013 to 2015 I was a tutor/rising leader for a charity leadership programme called Team-Up. During my time there I tutored GCSE and A level chemistry, physics, maths, and biology to disadvantaged (but very bright) students.

In my spare time, I am also a tutor/ambassador for a programme called Spectroscopy in a Suitcase (SIAS). For SIAS, I taught A level students how to use IR and NMR machines (by using SIAS's portable NMR and IR machines that we take to school). We also teach them the theories behind IR and NMR spectroscopy.

I am also a mentor for STEM OUTREACH at Imperial College London - I mentor physics, chemistry, biology, chemistry to disadvantaged (but bright) 14-18 year old students.

Tutoring Approach

When I was a student at sixth form, I was forced to self-teach A2 level further mathematics, and A2 additional further mathematics. This experience helped me to discover how to learn new concepts in a more intuitive (and efficient) manner the experience is what helped me to become a great tutor.

I make sure that I thoroughly read through the exam specification for each subject that I am tutoring. Due to my extensive knowledge in chemistry, physics, maths, and further maths - I don't mind which subject we cover on the day. I make sure that I spend the most time covering the topics that the tutee is actually struggling with - which is the most efficient way of helping the student reach their personal goal (and beyond).
