My name is Ivan, I am 29 years old, I give private lessons in Physics-Chemistry and Mathematics in London. I was a student of preparatory classes in mathematics and I have a Master of Physics from the university and a good experience in teaching both in mathematics and physics-chemistry. I am now a full time tutor in London, teaching these two subjects in private lessons.

Do not hesitate to call to discuss place, availability ...

I am a third year student in Biomedical Engineering at Imperial College in London.

I passed the baccalaureate S spé maths two years ago at the International High School of Saint-Germain-en-Laye with mention TB. I was also selected to write the General Physics-Science Competition.

I offer tutoring in maths and physics-chemistry to college students, second, first and final of all girls to help them in their academic success.

Do not hesitate to contact me for more questions.

Dear parents, dear students,
I offer private lessons and / or homework help in many subjects (mathsm french, chemistry, physics ...) and for all levels.
I am currently doing a thesis at the Imperial College London in Chemical Engineering. I graduated from a School of Chemical Engineering e France and holds an MSc at the Imperial College in Chemical Engineering.
I have almost 10 experience in private lessons and I can adapt to the demands and level of each student and different personalities.
I can teach by skype or move to your home if it is not too far from South Kensington-Putney Bridge, where I work and live.
Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions 

Specialized tutoring for maths, physics and chemistry A-Level's and GCSE's. I like to fuse better exam performances (improving exam techniques for example) with a deeper understanding of the subject.

"Give a student proper exam technique, and you teach him for a test. Teach a student to think, and you teach him for a lifetime." Both approaches are valid, but I believe I add substantial value to students education by developing a deeper understanding of a subject in addition to testing practice.

I also provide general problem solving tutoring beneficial for professional tests, school entry exams and those who just want to improve their critical thinking.

I am a qualified primary school teacher and can give classes to children in any primary school subject.
I also have a teaching English as a foreign language certificate and can give English classes to anyone of any age wanting to improve their English.

Laying and consolidating the foundations of mathematics and science in middle and high school is essential to developing your children's reasoning skills, ensuring them every chance of success in their future studies... and obviously guaranteeing them very good results at the baccalaureate or patent and throughout the year!

I am a young engineer with a recent double degree from the Ecole Centrale de Lyon and the Technical University of Denmark in general engineering and civil engineering, and I suggest you follow your children throughout the year to provide them with the basics , methods and in-depth studies that teachers do not always have the time to give to students. Having myself recently completed a scientific baccalaureate and a scientific preparatory class at the Lycée Saint Louis in Paris, I know the paths and states of mind (positive as well as negative!) of the students, and will help them progress effectively with kindness, good humor and patience.

I have several years of experience in private lessons at all levels, including one in London, and have thus acquired teaching skills and knowledge of science programs from middle school to high school (including the new program). I prepare my lessons in advance, can provide schedules to students, and seek to create connections with them that allow us to move forward more quickly and with mutual trust. My goal is to provide good results, but above all to ensure a deep understanding of the concepts of the program, methods and scientific reasoning, as well as to teach students the rigor and logic essential to these subjects. These concepts are assets and tools that will be useful to your children throughout their studies and careers.

With the last half of the year 2018-2019 severely disrupted by the health crisis, your children may have accumulated certain gaps that I can help to fill. I am very available for my students, have already provided a large number of distance lessons by Skype with great success. I like to know my students and establish relationships of trust with them, as equals, by providing friendly, educational and personalized support. I am very attentive and can happily help my students throughout the week and outside of class if they have questions about exercises or methods.

My prices are commensurate with my investment, my educational experience and my qualifications, having accumulated 6 years of high-level scientific studies. I am very accommodating with schedules and can easily postpone classes if necessary.

Do not hesitate to contact me; happy back to school!

Currently doing a double degree at Imperial College as part of my fourth year at École Polytechnique, I offer science courses (math, physics, chemistry) for all levels. In addition to my training in PCSI / PC * preparatory class (Pierre de Fermat high school) and at Polytechnique, I had the opportunity to be professor of physics at Saint Joseph University in Beirut in Lebanon for an internship of 6 month. I have also tutored several students in high school and in higher education during my years at Polytechnique. With these experiences, I will be able to adapt to your needs to pass on knowledge and methods to you with rigor and enthusiasm!

I offer private lessons in Chemistry to school students following French, British, IB or American systems. Being a PhD-holder in Chemistry from Imperial College London, I also offer support to chemistry students at university level.
Classes are delivered online via Zoom.

In my classes:
- I encourage asking relevant questions and I am willing to repeat explanations as much as necessary.
- I use technological tools and web interfaces to provide visual support to verbal explanations, which I consider a key part of effective teaching.
- I share my own, tailored, class notes and encourage the student to take notes him/herself as practice.
- We solve problems and I also assign homework and correct it in the following lesson.

After my classes, I share my notes with my students to help them retain the information and revise.

I am a 3rd year Chemistry student at Imperial College London. I am an experienced tutor in A level and GCSE Maths and Chemistry. I have the necessary skills to develop a tailored learning environment for different students to help them strive in their learning. I have tutored maths and science to students of all ages for 5 years.

Hello, I am a former student of a preparatory class in maths/physics (MP) and a graduate of an engineering school (master's level). I offer private lessons in scientific subjects (maths, physics/chemistry, SVT and engineering sciences) for all levels from primary to high school. Do not hesitate to contact me for more information.

Highest mark for Physics IGCSE in Malaysia.
Highest mark for Physics and Chemistry international A level in South Korea.

I’m currently an undergraduate at Imperial and I enjoy teaching in general.
I teach GCSE Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics.
Review all the topics, solve topic questions and practice with past papers again and again. This will help you master all the key points and understand the concept better.

I offer tutoring for GCSE and A-Level students in central London. All levels are welcome, I will work at your pace to help you gain confidence and achieve the best grades possible.

I am also able to help KS1 and KS2 students.

My background is: First-Class Chemical Engineering (Hons) graduate, currently doing an Msc in Materials Science at Imperial College London.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if interested! :)

Tutoring for International Baccalaureate (IB) Maths AA HL/SL, Chemistry HL/SL, Physics HL/SL and for International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) International Mathematics (0607), Additional Mathematics (0606), Physics (0625) Chemistry (0620).

I aim to make sure students understand material intuitively first before delving into complicated questions and foster a friendly and patient learning environment. Instead of relying on memorising formulas, I teach students how to derive the formulas themselves, build upon their previous knowledge and use them to solve complex questions in a simple way, building their confidence in the process. To facilitate this, I use metaphors and every-day things to construct stories that help students remember concepts and relationships between them.

My lessons are tailored to each student's needs, preferences and learning style so I am able to accommodate specific requests. I can help students work on improving both overall understanding of the subject as well as detailed and thorough understanding of specific topics/sub-topics. As someone who sat these exams myself, I know what the most common mistakes in each topic are, the best exam techniques and have lots of tips, tricks and resources I can share!

I offer flexible scheduling, with availability during the day, early mornings, and late evenings for lessons online or in-person lessons near South Kensington. Please message me before booking so we can find a time that works for both of us!
If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to contact me :)

Mathematics and physics are often problematic subjects because the teacher does not have time to sit down with a student to go over point by point the poorly understood parts of the course.

With my engineering training and 5 years of experience as a private tutor, currently a student at Imperial College London, I believe I can help you fill in your gaps and regain confidence in your ability to solve mathematical and physical problems.

I can give lessons in French or English in 1 to 2 hour slots.
I can adapt to all levels up to the license.

Im Yong Zhi, a 2nd-year Electrical and Electronic Engineering student at Imperial College London, with a strong academic background in mathematics and physical sciences. I achieved 4 A* grades at A-Level, including a Top In The World award for Mathematics, and I was awarded the Dean’s List in my first year at Imperial (top 5% of the cohort).

I have over a year of online tutoring experience, specialising in GCSE and A-Level Maths and Physics, as well as admissions-focused preparation for highly competitive exams such as ESAT and Oxbridge/Imperial entrance pathways.

My approach focuses on building deep conceptual understanding alongside strong exam technique. I prioritise helping students become confident problem-solvers rather than relying on memorisation, and I tailor each session to the student’s specific weaknesses and exam goals.

For exam preparation, I emphasise:

Breaking down difficult topics into clear, structured steps
Developing efficient problem-solving strategies under time pressure
Targeted practice using past-paper style questions
Improving accuracy, speed, and exam confidence

Whether the goal is securing top GCSE/A-Level grades or preparing for competitive university admissions, I aim to provide structured, high-impact support that is focused on measurable improvement.
