Inspiring and enthusiastic Maths and Science tutor with 9 years of experience - FREE first lesson

Chemical Engineering Graduate from The University of Edinburgh - My excellent academic career has nurtured in me a natural talent for teaching. My experiences have taught me how to tackle one problem at a time, and I believe that using this approach, paired with my unconventional examples, forces students to think outside the box. I can truly provide an excellent understanding and explanation. I am currently pursuing a PhD for my potential career in Academia.

I extend tailored lessons meticulously designed to cater to the unique requirements of each student.

My comprehensive teaching approach includes personalized notes, an extensive question bank for additional practice, and ample opportunities to work through past papers. This combination ensures a thorough understanding and adeptness in the subject matter.

Please note: I am only available for online sessions. I appreciate your understanding.

Tutoring Experience

I have been tutoring since 2012 to fund my education expenses. I formally began tutoring in 2014 as part of my vocational training as a teacher in Ghana, funded by the University of Edinburgh. The formal training has taught me a lot about curriculum development, time management, and fusing my teaching methodology to my students’ needs. I have been tutoring in Physics, Chemistry, and Math, in person and online; the hybrid model has allowed me to reach out and teach students in 8 different countries. I have successful students from these past nine years that have not only commended my work ethic but can also stand testament to my enthusiasm.

Tutoring Approach

My teaching methodology is based on two main things: skill development and adaptation. Initially, I create a skeleton of the most suitable methodology tailored to the preferred curriculum, after which I adapt that lecture to the student's specific needs based on their knowledge and grasp of the concepts. Second, I like to develop analytical and scientific abilities and knowledge in my students. For that, I use a combination of resources in the form of worksheets, class tasks, and past papers. Last, I believe in the strong ethic of providing feedback to the parents so they are aware of their child's progress.
