I am a scientist/engineer with an MSci in Chemistry and a PhD in Materials Science and Metallurgy from the University of Birmingham. I have several years of professional experience working in the battery and energy technology industries.

I have a strong passion for education and enjoy helping students develop their understanding and confidence in science and mathematics. I offer tutoring in GCSE Mathematics, GCSE Science (Biology, Chemistry and Physics) and A-Level Chemistry.

I aim to make learning enjoyable and helping students build the knowledge and skills they need to achieve their academic goals.

I have previous private tutoring experience from 2024, supporting students at Year 8, GCSE and A-Level Chemistry.

During my PhD at the University of Birmingham, I also worked as a laboratory demonstrator, supporting undergraduate students during practical Chemistry sessions. This involved explaining scientific concepts, demonstrating experimental techniques and guiding students through laboratory activities.

These experiences have strengthened my ability to communicate complex topics clearly, adapt explanations to different academic levels and support students in developing their confidence and understanding.

My tutoring approach is student-centred and tailored to each individual's learning needs and academic goals.

I begin by identifying areas of strength and topics requiring improvement, before developing structured lessons that focus on building a solid understanding of key concepts. I break down challenging topics into manageable steps, using clear explanations, worked examples, visual aids and interactive questioning to reinforce learning.

For GCSE and A-Level students, I place particular emphasis on exam technique, past-paper practice, understanding mark schemes and applying knowledge to unfamiliar questions. I am particularly familiar with the AQA curriculum.

I encourage students to ask questions freely and aim to create a positive learning environment where they feel comfortable making mistakes and developing independent problem-solving skills.

My goal is not simply to help students improve their grades, but to build lasting confidence and a genuine interest in their subjects.
