An outstanding professional and very experienced Bath-based Physics teacher with an established reputation as a highly effective and engaging pactitioner - capable of getting the very best outcomes for students.

Tutoring Experience

I have been a Physics teacher in academic, high-performing schools (state and private) for the past 30 years. In this time have been Head of Physics and Deputy Headmaster. I am now a part-time Physics teacher in The Blue School Wells, Somerset alongside private tutoring (see Google Reviews for High Flying Physics). I've assisted hundreds of students reach top grades and get into their first choice universities. Here is what some of them have said:

“His teaching style and the methods he used made physics incredibly understandable for me. Without his help I would never have achieved the grades required to get into university. He saved me!!” Scarlett

“Brilliant teacher explains things step by step in a very clear manner. Highly recommended.” Guy

“Mr Watts has tutored me throughout year 12 and year 13 and has helped me enormously. He is a great tutor, very knowledgeable and really supportive - thank you for all of your help!!“ Helen

Tutoring Approach

With years of experience I undertsand the stumbling blocks for students getting top grades. My strength is to quickly diagnose misconceptions and gaps in knowledge/understanding. I use excercises/questions to correct these misunderstandings and to embed concepts.

More recently I have also developed a specialism in effective online tuition. Having invested time in developing resources, high quality hardware and exploiting features of a digital class book, I am able to provide an extremely engaging and high-quality remote learning experience.
