Hello! My name is Rebecca and I'm an experienced tutor with a mathematical physics PhD. Within the last year, I have completed over 1000 tutoring sessions in both physics and mathematics helping many GCSE and A-level students achieve the best possible grades. I believe all students can learn to love mathematics and physics, so while my sessions focus on teaching content and exam preparation, I also give time to helping students really understand concepts and increase their desire to learn. I am currently looking to take one about 35 hours of tutoring as my last batch of students are now finished with their exams. GCSE: Mathematics and physics. A-Level: Mathematics and physics. Higher Level: Mathematics and physics. Exam Board Experience: AQA, Edexcel, OCR. Languages: English (Native speaker). Preferred student age group: GCSE/ A-level Education: PhD in mathematical physics at City, University of London (2018 - 2022) MSci in Theoretical Physics at University College London, First Class Honours (2013 - 2018) A-level Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry: A*, A*, A*, A. 15 GCSE's, 13 A* and A's, 2 B's.

Hello! Thank you for reading my profile, I'm Abbie, a postgrad student in Japanese and Chinese translation. I am passionate about teaching and motivating my students to branch out from topics typical at school. My key aims in all lessons are to make steps towards building students' confidence in the desired subject and building upon academic skills to feel prepared for exams or tests. I strive to ensure my students enjoy each lesson, feel safe in my lesson space and feel comfortable asking and discussing anything about the subject. I plan my lessons to fit each student's style of learning and interests for example studying the history of manga in Japanese lessons or diving into the world of gothic literature in English lessons - there is something for everyone! I can help with exam preparation and practice and provide extra support/materials for personal study. Subjects I teach (up to GCSE): English Language and Literature, English as a Second Language, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Welsh I have been tutoring for over 3 years now, both abroad and in the UK. I have experience working with students of all ages and with different abilities (including language abilities). I have N3 proficiency in Japanese and high proficiency in Mandarin Chinese (traditional and simplified).

Hi, I’m Elijah, and I’m passionate about making learning both enjoyable and rewarding. I love breaking down complex concepts in math and English into simple, easy-to-understand steps, helping students build confidence and a strong foundation. My approach is to make both subjects relatable, so they feel less like a challenge and more like a fun puzzle to solve. I believe that everyone can excel when given the right tools and support. By creating a friendly and encouraging environment, I help students not only improve their skills but also develop a genuine interest in both Math and English. Together, we’ll explore new concepts, build problem-solving abilities, and celebrate every achievement along the way! I hold a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering in University of Pangasinan and am working toward my professional license. My studies have provided me with a strong foundation in both mathematics and English, and I’ve seen how skills in one area can enhance understanding in the other. My background in engineering has helped me develop problem-solving skills that I apply in tutoring math, making complex concepts easier to grasp. I help students build confidence and skills in both math and English, enabling them to tackle challenges with clarity. In a supportive environment, I encourage questions, growth at their own pace, and the discovery of connections in their learning.

Subjects I Teach: - Biology A-Level - Science: KS3 & GCSE - Maths & English: Up to Functional Skills Level 2 A Bit About Me: My name is Nadia, and I'm a 25-year-old biologist. I'm currently studying for my Master's in Cancer Biology, a field I'm interested in, with the ultimate goal of becoming a clinical scientist. I believe that science should be accessible to everyone, and I really dislike it when people "gatekeep" scientific knowledge. My goal is to make learning engaging and manageable, helping you build confidence and achieve your goals through a personalised approach. Having dyslexia myself, I'm particularly passionate about using newfound ways to teach students with special educational needs (SEN), particularly non-verbal ASD, ADHD and Dyslexia. Outside of my studies and teaching, I love to relax and get creative. You might find me rollerskating, crocheting, or curled up with a good book and a cup of tea. I'm a big animal lover, and while I can't have a pet of my own right now, I enjoy pet-sitting for friends. I'm also interested in languages; I've completed a TEFL course, taught English to refugees and completed two beginner language courses, in Russian and Polish. My Education: - BSc Biology - University of Nottingham - MRes Cancer Biology - Nottingham Trent University - PGCE - Sheffield Hallam University (Partially Completed) About My Journey My journey into education began in January 2022 when I started tutoring with GoStudent while working on my BSc in Biology at the University of Nottingham. My passion for teaching grew, leading me to pursue a PGCE at Sheffield Hallam University. I completed two school placements, gaining valuable classroom experience over a total of nine months. Although unforeseen personal circumstances prevented me from finishing my PGCE, I remained dedicated to helping students. I continued tutoring through the National Tutoring Programme and the local authority, working with students who couldn't attend mainstream school due to various needs, including SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) and SEMH (Social, Emotional, and Mental Health). This rewarding experience led me to a short teaching contract at a special educational provision. There, I taught small groups of students with similar backgrounds. It was in this role that I truly discovered my most effective teaching style: a personalised, one-on-one approach. This method allows me to focus on each student's unique needs, helping them build confidence and achieve their academic goals. I'm now studying for my MRes in Cancer Biology at Nottingham Trent University, but my commitment to providing tailored, impactful education remains a priority. I'm excited to bring my experience and passion to our sessions.
