Tell me about some of your current students.: My current students range from Key Stage 3 science to A2 Chemistry. Currently, I have a good mix of students of various abilities and personalities. I tutored several of them last year at AS Level and now they are returning for A2. I have seen a big improvement in two of them in particular, one who was struggling for confidence and one who wanted to improve a grade. This is very good to see!
Do you have a personal message for students?: You can improve your grades massively with a little help and guidance. Once a week or once a fortnight is enough. If you are well prepared then the exam will be no problem and you will perform to your potential and beyond. A tutor can help you do this. If you come to the sessions keen to learn and with some questions then you will get a lot from it. Also, it is vital that you put in the effort in between sessions and recap on what we did.
