I am 35 years old and currently in full-time employment teaching Chemistry with South Lanarkshire Council. I achieved a 1st class honours degree in Chemistry, and completed my PGDE, at the University of Glasgow.
As part of my professional development I am currently working towards completing a Masters in Education.
I have 12 years of experience as a teacher of Chemistry and 13 years of experience as a tutor. I have tutored one-to-one and in groups. During this time I have tutored various levels including National 5 Chemistry, Higher Chemistry and Advanced Higher Chemistry.
I have experience marking for the SQA and can provide tips to ensure that marks are maximised in exams.
My teaching approach varies depending on the needs of the tutee. I aim to provide a friendly face that young people feel at ease asking for help with questions and explaining concepts. I often use past paper questions to help prepare tutees for the style and level of questions they must answer in their final exam. Additionally, I can provide extra questions for tutees to answer in their own time and provide feedback on this.
