Hi! I'm a second-year History and Politics student at Cardiff University. I tutor in English Literature/Language and History GCSE! I love tutoring as I enjoy helping to give people a boost in areas they may be struggling and to make them feel more comfortable in that subject. At secondary school, I worked hard to achieve all A-A* in my GCSEs, and I particularly loved History and English. I then studied History, Politics, and English Literature at A-levels, to pursue my particular interests further. This then allowed me to study Modern History and Politics at Cardiff University as an undergraduate student which I am currently in my second year of! I have experienced with tutoring my sister who is studying for her GCSES and with mentoring university students.

AQA 'Democracy and Nazism: Germany 1918-1945'. AQA 'Challenge and Transformation: Britain c1851-1964'. Higher Level: TEFL Exam Board Experience AQA, OCR Languages English : Fluent. French : Advanced Greek: Intermediate. SEND Experience Have worked with students who have ADHD. I have also worked with a terminally-ill child with learning issues due to memory impairment. Preferred Student Age Groups Am happy to tutor primary/ GCSE/ A-Level, as well as students or adults who have English as a Second Language. About me I love to travel, explore new places and meet people from different cultures. I spent ten years living in Athens, Greece where I worked as a private tutor: teaching TEFL to a wide variety of people - from complete beginners to students wishing to take Cambridge Proficiency exams in order to access UK universities. I have a BA Hons degree in Modern Languages: English/French with a module in Classical Greek Language and Literature. I believe in stress-free lessons , and learning in a relaxed setting. As a tutor I am not there to add pressure, but to help take pressure off. In terms of hobbies, I love reading, writing stories, and watching Turkish TV dramas. I am also a huge tennis fan. Last, but not least, I enjoy all forms of sugar - especially cake! Aside from my degree, I am qualified to teach TEFL. I really enjoy working with those who don't have English as a first language. It's a thrill to help them improve their speaking and listening - as well as reading and writing skills. It's wonderful to see them grow in confidence when expressing themselves in English. Furthermore, I am qualified to do proofreading. This fits in well with teaching English. I also have a certificate in Counselling Skills.

I am a dedicated math tutor committed to helping students build confidence and develop a strong understanding of mathematical concepts. I specialize in algebra and Geometry and adapt my teaching to suit each student’s learning style. My approach emphasizes conceptual clarity, problem-solving strategies, and real-life applications to make math engaging and relatable. I strive to create a supportive learning environment where students feel encouraged to ask questions and think critically. I aim to make math enjoyable and accessible, empowering students to excel and apply their knowledge beyond the classroom. I hold a Master’s degree in Mathematics, I have got a strong foundation in advanced mathematical concepts, problem-solving techniques, and analytical thinking. My academic journey has provided me with expertise in algebra, calculus, statistics, and geometry. During my studies, I actively participated in research projects and practical applications, further enhancing my teaching skills. My educational background enables me to simplify complex topics and tailor lessons to students’ needs.

Hey there my names Ben! I'm passionate about maths and science who loves to help those tricky concepts click for students. With my background in maths, physics and chemistry, plus years of helping students in their studied, I've discovered that learning happens best when it's engaging and applied to the real world. I specialise in tutoring maths, chemistry (physical, inorganic and organic), and physics (focus on classical and quantum mechanics) up to A-level equivalent standards. People say I have a knack for explaining complex ideas simply, and I take pride in watching people's confidence grow alongside grades. I tailor my approach for each individual student because everyone learns differently, and I'm all about building understanding rather than memorization. Whether you're struggling with homework, preparing for a big exams, or just want to deepen your knowledge, I'm here to help with flexible scheduling options. Most of my students improve by 1-2 letter grades within the first few months, let's turn those science and math challenges into strengths! I did my undergraduate degree at University College London, I achieved a First Class Honours Degree in Natural Sciencies, specialising in Physical Chemistry, Maths and Statistics. After a few months research in academia (Machine Learning Materials Science Research) and 2 years working in industry as a Data Scientist I have returned to education to undertake an MPhil in Scientific Computing at the University of Cambridge. I am hopeful to achieve a Distinction in this course and apply my skills and knowledge in the computational drug discovery/medical fields.
