Prior to teaching I have worked in life science Reasearch and Development and in Biopharamceutical research, sales and marketing. I also worked a part-time voluntary teaching assistant in primary and seconday schools for 2 years. In 2014 I decided to change career completely to become a science teacher, so I trained at Kings College, graduating with my PGCE in 2015.
My background prior to teaching brings additional experience and skills to my teaching. Chemistry is my specialist subject. I have taught and tutored all sciences successfully to years 7 to 11, and have taught and tutored Chemistry and Biology at A level.

My Psychology degree and 9 years of experience working with children with Neuro-divergence and additional educational needs prior to teaching have significantly shaped my approach to teaching.
I prioritise relationship building and trust with students and their caregivers.
I am patient, kind, and incredibly encouraging but have high expectations. I work with students for them to also gain high expectations in themselves. This may happen in the first few sessions or may take a longer period of time depending on the student.
I help students gain high expectations for themselves by initially giving tasks where they are guaranteed success, then celebrating and reflecting on this success and how they were able to use the skills taught and their effort to complete the task. This builds a persons confidence and significantly increases the likelihood of attempting more difficult tasks. This is heavily proven by research (and seen in my classroom daily) known as the “theory of self efficacy” and the “theory of planned behaviour”.
If a person does not believe a task is within their capability, they are incredibly unlikely to even attempt it (No matter how much we believe they can do it).
It is my job to SHOW students they can do it by designing tasks and lessons in a way that they feel challenged finish with pride in their achievements.
When teaching new skills I will show them first, then we will complete a task together, then they will apply the skills independently. I will be constantly assessing as they work independently and provide support where necessary. The ultimate goal is to phase back my support until they are using the taught skills correctly, consistently, confidently and independently.
Lessons will vary depending on students needs. If caregivers want to spend a percentage of the lesson to discuss, that will be agreed upon. If there are specific targets you want me to cover then we can dedicate time for you to tell me these expectations. If you would prefer me to assess your student and gage where the gaps are and plan accordingly, that is also ok.
I would suggest an initial session to meet, and discuss goals.
Some classes you may benefit from:
-SATs Prep
-Phonics
-Reading (comprehension, vocabulary, inferencing, predictions, explaining, retrieval, sequencing, summarising, making links, authors intent)
-Spelling
-Grammar (or Spelling and grammar combined)
-Maths
-Maths (arithmetic)
-Maths (Reasoning and Problem solving)
-Target specific - has your teacher said there are targets you need to work on in various subjects?
-Science
-History
-Geography
-Psychology (GCSE, A Level)
Is your child in secondary school but needs support in the foundation subjects such as reading, writing or maths?
Reading and writing is an essential skills in secondary school for every subject. I can support your child to close the gap so they can access all subjects with their peers. Having worked in secondary schools before, I have seen how much students are required to read and write in all lessons, but there will not be opportunities to learn these fundamental skills at school.
I welcome students of all ages (including adults) from all backgrounds and of all abilities.
I look forward to meeting you soon and celebrating the amazing progress ahead!

Qualified former primary school teacher with 8 years of teaching experience (including training years) across a range of year groups including Early Years (Reception). Hi, i'm Mariyam. I always knew I wanted to be a teacher, so I studied to teach children of a primary school age for 3 years at a great university. I have been a qualified teacher since I was 21 and have 8 years in total of teaching experience, including my training years.
Feel free to enquire about other primary school subjects, including History, Geography and RE.
The best part of educating is knowing you're making a difference to a child's learning and helping to set them up for a successful future.

I was a scientist, leading my own research group before becoming a teacher. I am passionate about the subject and can bring extra knowledge on how science is woven into our daily lives and explanations about natural phenomena. I really enjoy teaching science, but also understand that it is a lot of information and so I focus on breaking it down into smaller pieces of information and ensure that you understand each part, leading to a good understanding in the subject overall.

I have been a Primary School teacher for the past 4 years and have experience teaching KS1 and KS2. I am currently a Year 6 teacher, Environmental Science Lead and completing my Masters in 'Teaching and Learning' to help develop my teaching abilities to ensure all children learn. During my PGCE, I specialised in maths but I am very confident teaching all subjects according to the National Curriculum.
As a tutor, I am aware lessons need to be structured better to support your child in accessing the work and I am confident I will be able to find engaging yet challenging ways to help them progress. I have experience working with children with SEN needs and so I have readily available resources to help your child if necessary.
Previously, I have tutored for Year 6 SATs, 11+ exam, Year 1 phonics screening, Year 2 SATs and Year 3 children.

I am a Physics specialist and currently Head of Physics & Head of Year in the school I work at. I have been teaching for over 18 years now and have been proud to see many of my ex students pass their exams with flying colours. Some of the students I have taught are now working at CERN as a Particle Physicist, one has completed a PHd in Astrophysics and another is now a pilot. I aim to enthuse, engage and motivate and not just aim for good results, I aim to get students to love Physics and the world around them. I am keen on STEM related careers and will always encourage students, especially girls, to follow these routes into exciting and innovative careers. I'm a great believer in building strong relationships with my students, where we have a mutual understanding of the benefits to learning.
Due to coronavirus, I will currently be able to only deliver online tuition, I am happy to have an initial free consultation/ chat to discuss your childs needs and what they are looking to achieve, both long and short term in terms of this subject. I would also be happy to have an initial online chat to see if my style is suited to your child and vice versa. I have QTS status and have an enhanced DBS certificate. I have tutored students from both grammar and comprehensive schools. Please get in touch if you want to find out more/ availability.

Allow me to introduce myself - I'm Nelson, an experienced educator who has been teaching in secondary schools for over six years. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of teaching in both London and Australia, enriching the lives of students through subjects such as maths, science, chemistry, and psychology.
My journey as an educator has been driven by a profound passion for building children's mindsets and fostering a belief in the power of growth. I firmly embrace the concept of the growth mindset, knowing that when students are equipped with the right mindset, they can achieve remarkable things. By instilling in them a sense of resilience, adaptability, and a hunger for knowledge, I empower my students to embrace challenges and view setbacks as opportunities for growth.
One aspect that sets me apart as an educator is my unwavering commitment to building students from their foundations to higher levels of proficiency. I recognize that education is not a one-size-fits-all approach, and each student deserves tailored guidance and support. By identifying their unique strengths and areas for improvement, I create personalized learning experiences that challenge and engage them. My goal is to ignite a love for learning that transcends the classroom and accompanies them throughout their lives.
Discipline and consistency are integral to my teaching philosophy. I firmly believe that discipline, when nurtured with consistency, serves as a powerful tool for success. By setting clear expectations, establishing routines, and fostering a structured learning environment, I guide my students in developing the self-discipline and organizational skills necessary for their academic journey. Through this approach, I aim to equip them with the tools they need to thrive not only in their studies but also in all aspects of life.
One of the most rewarding aspects of being an educator is witnessing students realize their full potential. I am driven by a deep sense of fulfillment when I see my students grasp complex concepts with ease and confidence. To facilitate this, I employ various teaching strategies and techniques that cater to different learning styles. By incorporating interactive discussions, practical experiments, and real-world examples, I create an engaging and dynamic classroom environment that fosters deep understanding and long-lasting knowledge retention.
In summary, I am an enthusiastic and dedicated educator who believes in the transformative power of education. With a strong belief in the growth mindset, a passion for building strong foundations, and an unwavering commitment to discipline and consistency, I strive to guide my students towards realizing their full potential. Together, we embark on a journey of growth, discovery, and lifelong learning, unlocking the doors to endless possibilities.
