Interview

Which subject(s) do you teach?
I teach maths and physics.

Tell me about your qualifications.
I have an A-level in both maths and physics and studied physics at Bristol University where I graduated in 2002 with physics BSc(Hons).

What kind of experience do you have?
I have several years experience in private tuition in maths and physics for pupils in year 9 (KS3) to A-level. I have also tutored several students doing adult learning courses such as HNDs.

How much do you charge?
£28/hour for A-level and adult learning
£26/hour for GCSE and below

Where do you teach?
I am based in Wantage and can tutor at my house or I can travel to your house if it is relatively close. My students often come from the surrounding towns such as Grove, Didcot, Abingdon, Bishopstone, Farringdon, Wanborough,Uffington and other small towns and villages in the area.

When are you available?
My schedule is very flexible and I am prepared to tutor whenever I am not already booked. I am happy to tutor in holidays.

Which ages and levels do you teach?
I mainly tutor KS3, GCSE and A-Level,occasionally I tutor students who are doing adult learning courses such as maths or science based HNDs. However if you have requirements outside of these please contact me and I can advise if it is something I can help you with.

Do you have an up-to-date CRB (Criminal Records Bureau) disclosure certificate?
Yes

Do you have a personal message for students?
I genuinely care about helping my students achieve their aims in maths or physics, many of my students come from referrals from previous students. I also enjoy teaching and like to make it fun where possible.

Often I recommend students purchase the relevant text book for their course to give a base structure for our lessons and for the students' homework. I am familiar with a wide variety of teaching material and can advise accordingly.

Ideally I like my students to be familiar with all the course material a few weeks before the exam so we can concentrate our efforts on past papers. Having said that, one-to-one tutoring often needs to be modified to the specific needs of the individual student.
