Tutor Profile

Peter

Private Physics and Maths Tutor in Solihull

I have over 20 years of tutoring experience and specialise in AQA/ OCR A Level Physics and Edexcel Maths. I also teach both subjects for GCSE. I have a First Class Honours degree in Electrical Engineering and a BA in Maths. I am a MIEE and a CEng.

Teaching Experience

I have been tutoring maths and physics for over 20 years, full time for the past 10 years. I teach AQA, Edexcel, OCR(A) and WJEC. I teach both UK and international students and my focus is sound principles and building student motivation to achieve excellent examination results.

My approach is to build lessons around the very latest past paper questions pertinent to the requirements of each student. I focus on exam technique, strategy and question trends for each board.

I offer unlimited free support outside tutoring sessions by answering any questions via WhatsApp and help in using AI and other tools in the most advantageous ways.

Peter was really helpful and flexible and our son Daniel enjoyed his lessons right from the start. He focused exactly on what Daniel wanted, which was exam practice on trickier areas, and has improved Daniel's confidence that he can do well in his Physics A-level. I would have no hesitation in recommending Peter to anyone.

I knew Peter was the tutor for us when he spoke of his experience and obvious dedication to his students. He did not list students that had achieved A's under his tutoring instead he gave realistic expectations and showed a genuine interest in those he taught.

I have have just finished sitting my A level physics exams this year and I was really struggling in year 12, Peter is an amazing tutor and even that is an understatement, he is dedicated and extremely supportive even outside lesson time, for instance he always answers any question I have no matter the difficulty from quick multiple choice question to confusing calculations and always responds quickly providing me with a detailed and clear method/ explanation, It is really rare to see a teacher so incredibly dedicated to his students as Peter is and I’m so glad I found him, thank you so much!!

Peter has been a fantastic tutor - I cannot recommend him highly enough. He has an excellent teaching style, explains things very clearly and thoroughly, and lessons are engaging and fun. He has also been so kind as to answer my questions outside of lessons which has led to my understanding and confidence improving exponentially. His focus on exam strategy as well as various other tips and tricks for answering A level Physics questions effectively have been extremely useful. His support has been totally invaluable! Thank you so much Peter - I will miss our lessons.
