Chemistry (11-18 years) and Science (7-14 years) Tutoring (English)
From 42.52 C$ /h
Learning anything requires patience and resilience, and sometimes a little encouragement.
Chemistry is perhaps one of the hardest subjects to understand because it requires so much of you as a student - the concepts that are covered in Chemistry are challenging but that makes them all the more interesting. There is much to chemistry (and science in general) that is so relevant to all of us in our day-to-day lives, and it is vital to have a good understanding of these topics in our role as global citizens.
I am an experienced Chemistry teacher who has taught in Grammar schools in the United Kingdom for over 6 years - primarily the AQA Chemistry Syllabus, and I have three years experience of Private Tutoring (online due to the COVID pandemic). I have a diverse background and I bring experience from a variety of different interests to my teaching. I am therefore mindful of the barriers that young people face when they are challenged by a subject or topic, and it is my responsibility to facilitate the breaking of those barriers to develop understanding.
Lessons will be adapted according to capability and learner preference, and tailored with a practical, goal-orientated approach. In general, we will start with the basics and plenty of recall, and move to use past exam questions to develop a problem-solving, practise based approach in order to build confidence prior to the examination. Feedback will be given regularly, and whether the goal is to prepare for a particularly tough homework or assignment, or examinations, the target will be support and facilitation of your knowledge and understanding.
I am also able to proof read material (e.g. essays, assignments etc.) prior to submission. Please contact me for further details.

Extra information
Online lessons will require access to one of Microsoft Teams/Google Meet/Zoom.
I will require prior information about the syllabus that you follow/wish to follow, and you should bring your course/revision notes, and textbook (if you have one) to the first session so we can target your learning needs together. There may be need for an initial (low stakes) assessment to gauge our starting point and assess progress.
Discounts for packages of lessons can be arranged after the initial meeting.

About Me
I am an enthusiastic and caring tutor/teacher who has a real passion for my subject and to also learn from my students. I am willing to go the extra mile to encourage engagement and develop understanding. From me, learning comes with a smile, and it is my aim for you to leave with the confidence to smile about our lesson too.
I frequently read articles in scientific journals and popular science magazines and have a particular interest in the contributions of James Clerk Maxwell and Scottish Enlightenment Philosophers to science education. Further interests in Greek, Norse and Celtic Mythology and hero-worship.
