I am a 35-year-old English teacher from Ireland. I have a passion for both teaching and academic content development which I have enhanced throughout my academic and professional career. I studied English, Media and Cultural studied for my BA degree where I had the opportunity to explore and practice journalistic, academic, and creative writing. In my job as an English instructor, I am always trying to find creative ways of teaching. I have experience in teaching English as a foreign language as well as in literature and media studies. I have studied English and American literature and poetry. I have developed and created English courses for language centers and I have written and edited an English coursebook series.

I am an encouraging, patient, and highly experienced GCSE and A-Level Chemistry tutor, with a strong academic background and a genuine passion for helping students build confidence and succeed. I hold a PhD in Bioengineering and Materials Science from Imperial College London, and I have also worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Oxford. My academic training began with a Master’s degree in Chemistry with Biomedicine from King’s College London, where I was recognised as the Most Outstanding Graduate. This journey has given me a deep and thorough understanding of chemistry, as well as the ability to explain complex ideas clearly and simply. Alongside my studies and research career, teaching has always been a core part of what I do. I have delivered university tutorials, supported undergraduate and Master’s students, organised revision sessions, and mentored students at different stages of their education. I also have several years of experience tutoring GCSE and A-Level Chemistry, both one-to-one and in small groups. My teaching style is calm, structured, and supportive. I believe every student can do well with the right guidance and approach. I focus on building strong foundations first — making sure key concepts truly make sense — before gradually moving on to more challenging topics and exam-style questions. This helps students feel confident, reduce anxiety around exams, and develop strong problem-solving skills. I am particularly experienced at identifying where students are getting stuck and adapting my explanations to suit different learning styles. Whether a student needs help catching up, strengthening their understanding, or pushing for top grades, I tailor each lesson to their individual needs and goals. Above all, I aim to create a positive and encouraging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and improving steadily. My goal is not just to help students achieve better grades, but to help them feel confident in their abilities and develop skills they can carry forward beyond their exams. I have a strong academic foundation in chemistry and related sciences, combined with extensive experience in teaching, mentoring, and one-to-one tutoring across multiple educational levels. I completed a PhD in Bioengineering and Materials Science at Imperial College London, where I developed advanced analytical skills and a deep understanding of chemistry, materials science, and applied biology. My doctoral training strengthened my ability to explain complex concepts clearly, logically, and step-by-step — an approach that translates directly into effective teaching. Prior to this, I obtained a Master’s degree in Chemistry with Biomedicine from King’s College London, where I was awarded Most Outstanding Graduate in recognition of academic excellence. Throughout my undergraduate and postgraduate studies, I was actively involved in teaching and student support. I organised and delivered revision sessions, led tutorials for undergraduate and Master’s students, and regularly supported peers with exam preparation and problem-solving. These experiences gave me a strong understanding of common misconceptions students face in chemistry and how to address them effectively. Following my PhD, I held postdoctoral research positions at both Imperial College London and the University of Oxford. In these roles, I supervised and mentored students, contributed to teaching activities, and continued to refine my ability to communicate scientific ideas clearly and accessibly to learners with different backgrounds and abilities. In parallel with my academic career, I have several years of experience tutoring GCSE and A-Level Chemistry, as well as supporting undergraduate (BSc) students. I have worked with students of varying abilities, from those needing to rebuild confidence in the subject to those aiming for top grades. My teaching approach is structured and adaptable, focusing on building strong foundations before progressing to more complex topics and exam-style questions. Overall, my educational background and teaching experience allow me to combine subject expertise with a supportive, student-centred approach. I am confident in tailoring lessons to individual learning styles and helping students develop both understanding and confidence in chemistry.

I am a modern pragmatic thinker, and I bring this active, philosophical approach directly into every lesson. My goal is to move beyond simply memorizing formulas and facts; instead, we explore how environments shape minds, how ideas become action, and how education becomes a living experiment. I believe true learning is not passive—it is a continuous process of discovery and adaptation. My teaching focuses on intentional structuring, ensuring that your learning environment is optimized to produce measurable all round growth. I hold a BSc in Pure Physics from Delta State University, a discipline that instilled a rigorous, first-principles command of mathematics, analytical thinking, and the fundamental laws governing the universe. This degree demanded intensive problem-solving, providing me with the expertise necessary to teach complex foundational subjects like Calculus, Mechanics, and Advanced Physics with absolute clarity and precision. Building on this theoretical base, I pursued a Masters in Business Intelligence and Big Data at the University of Greenwich, London UK. This advanced study shifted my focus from purely theoretical problems to practical, real-world application. It emphasized how to use advanced statistics, data modeling, and cutting-edge analytical tools to extract meaningful, actionable insights from complex systems.

Levels & subjects I teach: Primary English, Primary Maths, and Keystage 3 and 4 Maths. Exam board experience: AQA, Edexcel and OCR Preferred Age Group: Primary About me: I have completed my PGCE at Leeds Beckett University. I am a qualified teacher and I have more than four years of experience in tutoring students online. I specialise in Maths and English and I have experience preparing students for SATs and 11 plus exams. I tutor online only. Furthermore, I use an adaptive teaching style to cater for all different types of learners (kinaesthetic, visual, auditory). I use different teaching approaches as students learn at different rates, have different needs and learning styles. I adapt my approach depending on the student and their needs. For example, I help students practice answering exam style questions by going through past papers. In addition, I prepare for my sessions using baseline assessments to identify areas they are struggling with. I like involving the student in order to create personalised session plans to meet their needs. Also, I set homework tasks for the students to complete in-between lessons to consolidate their learning using the seneca platform. Usually, I use a "I do, we do and you do" structure for my sessions. This tends to consist of a PowerPoint with interactive activities, videos, games, quizzes and exam questions. Some resources I use include Seneca and Twinkl. I ensure that I recap previous learning through retrieval activity at the start of sessions. I address misconceptions through questioning. I ensure the topics are taught in small chunks using scaffolding and live modelling. My Education GCSE: Grades A-C in Maths, English, Science, Health and Social Care, PE, French and History. A levels: Health and Social Care, Biology, BTEC Science. Level 3 Award in Education and Training. Degree: First class honours in Bsc Public Health and Community Wellbeing and PGCE in Primary Education (5-11)
