Harold

Worked in medical physics industry, then took up teaching. Now retired from full time lecturing. Involved in alternative energy and sustainable lifestyle.

Tutoring Experience

25 years full time lecturing/ teaching at colleges of further education and latterly part time teaching at university. For some years since retiring I have been tutoring A level at home; Physics, Pure Maths, and Mechanics. More recently I have been helping undergrads in various branches of engineering, physics and maths.

Tutoring Approach

I help students to gain confidence developing what they already know into competence at their desired level. Knowledge and work produced become the students own achievement rather than something I have "taught" them.
I mainly work with exam type problems, helping students fill in any gaps in background knowledge as we go.
