I believe all children have the ability to succeed in science given the right support. I am especially experienced in examination and course work preparation.

I have recently retired from a Science College in Hertfordshire where I taught all sciences up to GCSE (OCR applied and additional science and geology) and A-level Chemistry and Geology (Both OCR). In the past I have taught A-level Biology/Human Biology and Btec Applied Science / Biochemistry in Higher Education establishments. I have recently gained a position as an on-line Key Stage Three tutor for the Wolsey College Oxford.

I have recently completed a open degree in physical sciences with the Open university which covers physics, organic and physical chemistry and earth sciences.

We have been very fortunate to find a very good teacher to help my daughter,M, prepare for her GCSE exams in Science in 2012. Mrs Powell has always been very professional and well prepared for her tuition lessons with my daughter who did brilliantly well and gained a place in the 6th form of one of the best schools in Colchester. My daughter enjoyed her lessons and now Mrs Powell is helping her prepare for A-levels
A huge thank you for your time and concern for S . You listened and understood her areas of improvement and tailored your technique to help her understand what she found difficult. I would be very happy to recommend you to any student looking for help in science subjects.
