I have had experience in a classroom with students whilst helping peers with questions and understanding. I have a strong maths and science background in school and now at uni and will hopefully explain things in a productive manner as I've experienced many different teaching styles. I will find different methods of explaining and make the lesson engaging and useful for your needs! I personally like to help friends and other students achieve and get the best results they are capable of, which was seen throughout my time in school and university. I am very determined and like to be involved with education, having doing previous summer schools before attending university, and helped out at open days. Thus, I would be happy to share my experiences with students. Outside of academia, I am heavily involved with sports, primarily table tennis and tennis. Overall, a very friendly and understanding person who has been through this process before by undertaking maths and all science A-Levels & now a first class chemical engineering graduate.

Past experience in tutoring but would like to help pupils of different ages succeed and get the best out of them. I have been in their shoes and especially at exam times a little guidance would be preferential. I normally help friends with their work at school and even at university now and would like to transfer my skills. Have experience with English (GCSE, a-level) and Scottish (N5, Higher, Advance Higher) curriculum content in maths and the 3 sciences.

I aim to bring the best out of students by reviewing multiple methods and like to be proactive and engaging with content. I typically make simple PowerPoint slides with main content concepts and to fit in time to practice this verbally and written, though I am very flexible to the student's demands! I thoroughly review content and papers beforehand primarily through relevant past papers practice and ensuring it aligns with the correct curriculum. I have previously even marked past papers and gone through this with students, and am willing to create homework if required. Typically takes place online, though I am based in Edinburgh. I usually write in real time through questions. I will have different methods of explaining, and depending on the topic I will have multiple works to back up the theory. I’m always a good listener and like to understand what you are thinking!

For GCSE I was familiar with Edexcel for maths, AQA for biology, chemistry, physics; for a-levels I was familiar with edexcel for maths, OCR for biology, chemistry, physics. I will be happy to look at new exam boards and familiarise myself with it, especially after reforms.
