Chelsey

Hi, I'm Chelsey a fully qualified Science teacher, tutor and AQA examiner with 13 years of experience. I am patient kind and encouraging and have a passion for engaging students and allowing them to reach their full potential. I have a deep knowledge of the various exam board specifications, test papers and mark schemes for GCSE Science's.

Teaching Experience

I have a 1st Class Honour's degree in Biomedical Science from King's College London, as well as a PGCE in Secondary Science teaching from University College London (UCL). I have also undertaken research for a PhD funded by Diabetes UK into the mechanisms of development of type 1 diabetes.

I have taught in Outstanding Grammar school's in Buckinghamshire for the past 13 years. Along side this I run 1:1 private tutoring sessions to support and enhance children's learning and progress.

I am very experienced with teaching children who have a range of SEN needs and I possess a wide array of teaching strategies to engage learner's with my lessons.

Please see recent reviews below

Claire - Chelsey has been tutoring my daughter for a few weeks now, leading up to her GCSEs. She explains everything very well and has managed to get across topics that my daughter previously didnt understand. This has massively increased her confidence for the upcoming exams. I would highly recommend.

Rachel - Absolutely amazing. Patient, kind and clever. Got both my girls through their Science GCSEs with good results

Justine - Very pleased with the progress my daughter is now making with the help of Chelsey, she is now much more confident about her upcoming sciences exams

Alexander - My daughter has found Chelsey a great tutor: she has really helped her with her GCSE chemistry. Chelsey is very organised, prompt and personable. Would recommend her highly.

Wendie - An excellent tutor who made my daughter`s lessons fun as well as informative, restored her confidence and helped her gain the GCSE Science grade she wanted.

Tutoring Approach

My lessons are fun and structured, yet tailored to each individual child. I quickly build relationships to identify gaps in knowledge and build a clear plan to fill these. This enables your child to feel as confident and well prepared for their exams as possible.

Lessons contain animations, mini plenaries and quiz's to check understanding as well as a clear focus on exam technique. We will often use the second half of the lesson to practise application of knowledge to exam questions. This enables students to get "in the mind" of the examiner so that they are fully prepared for their exams.
