Private online tuition that's more

Real teaching with a real teacher

Why trust online "tutors" who often are not fully qualified teachers? Most online tutors are undergradute/postgraduate students who have no formal teaching qualifications, may not be enhanced-CRB checked, have no real teaching experience and little understanding of exam board specifications. Learn from a highly qualified and experienced subject specialist UK teacher, with over two decades of real teaching experience and an exemplary record of securing the highest student attainment in real schools and colleges.

Deeply personalised learning

Specify your exact requirements for your tuition session during the booking process, to allow your teacher to personalise the planning, resources, and teaching activities to the student's exact needs. Each lesson is uniquely crafted for each individual learner to maximise specificity, engagement, understanding, progress and retention; no waffling, no filler, no "winging it", just a highly tailored, focussed and effective learning experience every time.

It's just like being there!

We use state of the art online conferencing to enable teachers and students to interact with each other in real-time from anywhere, on any device. Students and teachers see & hear each other in high definition over a secure encrypted connection. Students are fully immersed in interactive learning tasks, as the teacher gives them control to use simulations, software, whiteboards, and many other resources, including virtual science experiments which would be impossible to perform in the real classroom!

Retain it all, forget nothing

Unlike ordinary "face-to-face" or "offline" tuition, students don't have to rely on their memory and written notes to retain everything they experienced and learned during the session. After our tuition sessions, students receive a link to the recording of the session and also any downloadable resources (such as worksheets, notes, virtual experiments and simulations, PowerPoint, etc.) which they can use for revision again and again.

Complete transparency, ongoing dialogue

Access to full recordings of each session assures parents/carers a level of transparency and confidence which is unavailable in ordinary "face-to-face" tuition. This gives parents/carers more insight into their child's progress, and allows them to become more involved in shaping their child's teaching.

Detailed feedback, highly targeted homework

Students and parents/carers receive highly detailed feedback after each session (and on request) to highlight specific strengths and weaknesses in knowledge, skills and attitudes, together with highly specific recommendations on how to improve. This is supplemented with deeply personalised homework tasks which are expertly designed to maximise the learner's progress, ensuring a continuous cycle of work, feedback and improvement that facilitates students to reach their full academic potential.

Powerful & unique

In addition to expert one-to-one teaching, students are engaged with powerful learning activities designed through a unique application of game theory to science education and state of the art machine-learning algorithms. Regular private tutees receive access to exclusive "homework" resources tailored to their exact requirements and learning style, including advanced interactive assessments and interactive videos, testing understanding, providing tailored challenge and detailed feedback to meaningfully accelerate learning.

Convenience, reliability, privacy & comfort

No more travelling to/from sessions for students or teachers; save time, hassle, and expense. You're no longer at the mercy of transport, which can often cause delays or (worse) missed sessions. No need to dress up or prepare a room at home before a session; you can study and learn in complete comfort and privacy anywhere you like with just an internet connection, and can choose whether to be seen and/or heard by your teacher. Online tuition even makes it easier to receive tuition on those occasions when you're feeling a bit under the weather!

Check availability and book your online lessons below:

Please read the following carefully:

To fully participate, the student will need a microphone, headphones and webcam. A graphics tablet would also be useful, but is not essential.
The student will also need the free “Zoom” online video-conferencing application installed on their device (desktop, laptop, tablet or smartphone). Download Zoom for free at the official Zoom website.
After registering for the lesson, the student will be sent their unique Zoom link to allow them to attend the lesson via the Zoom application at the allotted date and time for the lesson.

About your teacher...

I’ve been teaching mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology in the UK for over 20 years, and I’ve been a full time teacher of GCSE and A-Level physics, biology and chemistry in UK schools and further education institutions for 14 years.

During the course of my teaching career I have built a proven record of facilitating excellent academic attainment in all three sciences at key stages 4 and 5 as a classroom teacher, together with experience in designing, implementing and managing the whole science curriculum and its delivery for a large science department as its ‘subject leader’. I currently teach at a school in Camden, London.

My academic background includes bachelors degrees in medical science and medicinal chemistry, a postgraduate certificate in secondary education and a masters degree in science education.

In recent years as a teacher and tutor, I’ve become very interested in the potential for new strategies and technologies for e-learning and online teaching in my subject areas. My strength as a teacher has always been in stretching and challenging the most able and/or motivated students, and I wanted to explore the potential to leverage my teaching experience and the latest e-learning strategies to support such students to excel without being restricted by the limitations of school curricula, conventional teaching methods or the physical classroom.

Consequently, I’ve created this website to explore the potential for e-learning in science, offering both my services as an online teacher/tutor as well as interactive online courses which cover the full scope of GCSE and Advanced Level Physics, Biology and Chemistry.
