Levels and Subjects I teach: I’m an English and History teacher with GoStudent. I can teach these at GCSE and A Level. As a professional writer I can offer academic and creative writing classes to adults and higher level students. I am a teacher of environmental science. I have an MSc in Conservation Ecology and extensive field experience in Latin America, Africa and Asia. Having studied and worked as a professional actor, I can also offer Drama/Acting classes to A Level. Languages: Apart from English, I'm also a fluent Spanish speaker. Preferred student age groups: I prefer to work with students from 10 years and older (to adults), however I have worked with students from 6 years up. About me: I have been a professional travel, environment, and creative writer for the last 20 years, and a teacher for the last 9. I have a background in acting, drama and conservation ecology and when it comes to teaching I draw on these skills to make my classes as fun, dynamic, and interesting as possible. I often use roleplay, music, media, and games to enhance students learning and understanding. Learning is so much easier when it’s fun and thought-provoking. I teach students from young children to the executives of large companies. Outside of my roles as teacher and writer I have also worked as an actor, journalist, conservationist and professional mountain and nature tour guide and tour designer. I love wildplaces. When not working, I love hiking, film, theatre, acting, travel, snorkelling, diving, photography, and martial arts. I also run workshops in creative writing. I have an MSc in Conservation Ecology from Oxford Brookes University. I decided to do this degree after living and working in Latin America, Africa and South East Asia for many years. Living and working as a guide, writer, and conservationist in these places inspired my love of the natural world. My degree is in acting and performance art. I was lucky enough to attend East 15 Acting School (which is now part of the University of East London) to study. I worked as an actor for many years, and I often include roleplay and drama in my lessons. For my A levels I studied English (A), Art (A) and Geography (B).

My academic journey has deepened my passion for maths and science, and I love helping students discover how these fascinating subjects connect to everyday life. During my A Levels, I studied Maths, Biology, Chemistry and Italian, achieving strong results that led me to my undergraduate and postgraduate studies. Beyond academics, I enjoy music, art and languages, which help me bring creativity and varied perspectives to my teaching. I have over 7 years of tutoring experience in maths and science, working with students from primary school level through to GCSE in both one-to-one and group settings. I have also worked in secondary schools as a supply teacher and teaching assistant, which has given me valuable insight into different learning styles, the curriculum, and classroom dynamics. This experience has strengthened my ability to adapt my teaching approach to meet each student's individual needs and learning pace. Teaching has always been a great passion of mine, and I'm committed to helping students build confidence and achieve their academic goals. I focus on breaking down complex concepts into clear, manageable steps that make learning both effective and enjoyable. I hold a First Class BEng (Hons) degree in Biomedical Engineering, where I developed a strong foundation in mathematics, sciences, and engineering principles. I am currently pursuing my Master's degree in Biomedical Engineering at Imperial College London. Studying at such a prestigious institution has further enhanced my expertise and kept me at the forefront of developments in STEM education. During my A Levels, I studied Maths, Biology, Chemistry and Italian, achieving the grades needed to progress to my undergraduate and postgraduate studies. I also hold 12 GCSEs, which gives me a thorough understanding of the curriculum and what students need to succeed at this crucial stage. My academic journey has equipped me with extensive knowledge of exam requirements and effective study techniques, which I apply directly to help my students achieve their goals.

Welcome to my profile. I teach 11+, GCSE Science (physics, chemistry, and biology), and Mathematics. I use notes and revision resources that have been carefully tailored to each student's specific needs. With their exam board content, revision/practice questions, and particularly repeated past papers, I have been able to instill confidence, critical thinking, and a genuine understanding of the subject in all of my students while ensuring they enjoy the process. I look forward to beginning this journey with you. I have over 4 years (1000+ hours) of experience teaching these subjects: GCSE Science (Biology, Chemistry, Physics), Mathematics, and 11+. I hold a Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng.) in Mechanical Engineering and an international teaching certificate (TESOL). I bring both academic expertise and practical teaching experience to my lessons. Having achieved top grades (A**) in GCSE Mathematics, Physics, and Biology, I understand the challenges students face and tailor my teaching to help them succeed. I create a friendly and interactive learning space where everyone feels comfortable. This helps build confidence and ensures that students really understand the important concepts they need to reach their academic goals.
