Information About Tudur - Bangor tutor

Personal Description:

I have recently graduated from Durham university with an MPhys and enjoy all things related to maths, physics and astronomy. I am currently undertaking postgraduate research in the School of Electronic engineering at Bangor university. I am a keen hill walker, astronomer and enjoy playing the piano and organ.

Tutoring Experience:

I have a broad experience of working with young people having been a qualified leader in the Bangor scout group for a number of years whilst I was at school. As a young leader, I completed several training modules which equipped me to teach new skills to younger age groups. Subsequently, as an adult leader I was warranted and received a CRB check. At school I was appointed head boy and this provided me with several opportunities to engage with lower years and helped with primary school reading skills. I am familiar with all national curriculum requirements and the details of each specification. I am aware of the new specifications and assessment procedures in both England and Wales.

Tutoring Approach:

My tutoring approach will concentrate on key concepts and linking these with everyday contexts so that the student is aware of the relevance of what they are learning. I will encourage students to target areas of difficulty by asking key questions. This will instil in the student confidence in their learning. I wish to make the tutorials a relaxed and productive experienced for the student so that they feel comfortable in asking questions.
