Hi! I’m Ann — a second-year medical student who loves painting, reading, and (recently) horse riding. I’m someone who genuinely enjoys learning new things, but I also understand how tough studying can feel when you’re stuck, stressed, or unsure where to start. That’s a huge part of why I tutor — I want to make learning feel lighter, clearer, and way less overwhelming. I’m not the type of tutor who just reads off a screen or throws information at you. I like to explain things in a simple, friendly way, break topics down into small steps, and make sure you actually understand the idea, not just memorise it. Everyone learns differently, so I always adjust the pace and style to whatever works best for you. If you’re someone who loses motivation, gets anxious about exams, or feels like certain subjects just “don’t make sense,” don’t worry — I’ve been there too. We’ll work through it together until you feel confident. I’m patient, supportive, and I’ll never make you feel bad for not knowing something. That’s literally what I’m here for. I really want my students to feel comfortable, motivated, and proud of themselves. I love seeing someone go from “I don’t get this at all” to “wait… that actually makes sense now!” It’s the best part of tutoring. If you’re looking for someone who will help you learn in a relaxed, encouraging way, I’d love to work with you. Let’s make studying feel manageable — and maybe even enjoyable. I achieved all A* in chemistry, biology and maths at GCSEs, and an A in biology for A-level through my time as a student I developed effective study techniques, which I use to support students in their learning. I am now a second year medical student.

--- About Me! --- I'm Danny, a 4th year physicist at the University of Edinburgh, currently undergoing a research year abroad working on a thesis at GSI/FAIR, a facility for high energy physics. My work involves a lot of programming, knowledge of physics, and application of engineering and design principles. I love inspiring others and talking about my subject, so any student who comes my way will hopefully leave feeling confident, ready for common exam questions, and most importantly, wanting to learn more beyond their curriculum. I play the violin to a diploma standard, love trying out new cooking recipes (sometimes with disastrous consequences), and really enjoy mountain sports, like climbing and hiking. --- My Education --- As mentioned above, I am a physicist at the University of Edinburgh on a year in industry at GSI. I am working on the upcoming DIRC particle detectors for the PANDA project and the EIC at Brookhaven (google these things, in my opinion they are very cool). This research of course involves knowing a bunch about programming, mathematics and physics! I achieved 4 A* grades at A-Level, in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Music, with the WJEC exam board. For these grades, I abused my poor printer, drilling past paper questions endlessly, so I am very familiar with this specific curriculum. However, mathematics and physics are very similar across all exam boards. There are common questions in every exam, and your child will become familiar and confident with these questions with me, ideally able to reproduce 'stock answers' with a high level of understanding and speed. This saves time in exams and guarantees easy marks; this is a major step in reducing exam anxiety, and one of the main strategies I used to achieve my marks. I taught a STEM program at a US summer camp. It was much more of a 'for fun' thing, so we focused on making classes lightweight and enjoyable, rather than drilling worksheets and past paper questions. As such, I won't exclusively bore tutees to death with math problems! I pride myself on being able to break down concepts into simple to understand analogies. I am also a huge advocate for using past questions as revision material. However, I recognise the importance for students to balance time spent on questions with going over textbook concepts.

Hi! I'm Connor and I am studying Physics at university! At uni my favorite topic is space and galaxies. In my spare time I work on old cars and do astrophotography. I am dyslexic, so I understand that different people have different approaches to learning and that there is no single correct way to go about it! I enjoy learning and would like to share my passion with others :). I am currently attending the university of Liverpool studying Physics going into my third year of undergraduate study aiming to complete an integrated masters and hopefully move on to a PHD. so far over both year one and two I have averaged a first class degree whilst still maintaining my hobbies and a job on the weekends. I completed A levels in maths, further maths and physics.

Key Stage 3(KS3): Science and Mathematics GCSE: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics. A-Level: Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Higher Level: Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Exam Board Experience: AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC, etc. Languages: English (Native Speaker) Preferred Student age group: GCSE, A-Level, and Higher Level. About me: I am a dedicated and passionate science tutor with a strong background in biology, chemistry, and physics. I am committed to fostering a positive and engaging learning environment that encourages students' curiosity and scientific thinking. With a proven track record in adapting teaching methods to suit individual learning styles, I am adept at conveying complex scientific concepts in an easy-to-understand manner. My experience spans across various online platforms, where I have successfully conducted needs assessments and designed individualized tutoring services. I am also skilled in preparing and delivering engaging lessons, monitoring student performance, and adjusting teaching strategies for improved content delivery. My goal is to help students master material content, improve their study skills, and build confidence in their scientific abilities. University of Sunderland A-Levels GCSE TESOL TEFL I hold a Bachelor's degree in Pharmacy, a rigorous program that has provided me with a comprehensive understanding of the biological, chemical, and physical sciences. My academic journey has been marked by intensive coursework in areas such as organic and inorganic chemistry, human anatomy and physiology, pharmacology, and biophysics. This strong foundation has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to effectively teach and simplify complex scientific concepts. My passion for science, coupled with my academic background, allows me to bring a unique perspective to tutoring, making learning an engaging and enriching experience for my students. In addition to my degree, I have also completed a 120-hour TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) certificate. This certification has equipped me with the skills to effectively communicate complex scientific concepts in an accessible and understandable manner. It has also enabled me to adapt my teaching methods to cater to the diverse learning styles and needs of students from various linguistic and cultural backgrounds. With this blend of scientific knowledge and teaching expertise, I am well-prepared to guide students through their academic journey in the sciences.
