Maths and Physics Lessons in Bloomsbury

I'm a masters student in physics at University College London. I'm currently working on the NASA lead ANITA mission to detect small particles called neutrinos that interact with the ice in Antarctica.

I love all things space and astronomy related and I'm keen to share my knowledge and get more people interested in physics.

Tutoring Approach

I have a problem lead teaching style. The best way of leanring maths and physics is to get stuck into problems, this is the only way to master techniques and do well in exams. A typical tutoring session would involve going through problems and correcting and improving understanding of the material along the way.
