Hello. My name is Darren Beech and I have been a Science Teacher for 26 years. I have taught all three science specialisms at key stage 3 (Biology, Chemistry and Physics), Biology and Chemistry at GCSE and A level Biology. I have taught all ability ranges over these years and have had exemplary success with the students in my classes. Having left main school teacher in the summer of 2025 to care for a disabled parent, I have moved into tutoring to continue passing on my passion for science and to help continue to get students to progress through their qualifications. Even if my availability doesn't suit you, please message me and we may be able to come to an alternative time slot. Having completed my GCSE;s (1992) and A levels (1995), I moved to the University of Derby to complete a BSC (HONS) degree in Biology (1998) and then onto a PGCE (Secondary science) with DeMontfort University (1999). I have then taught in 4 schools over my career as a teacher of science, where I also had additional responsibilities such as Head of Biology and Deputy Head of the 6th form.

Ich heiße Anna und studiere Internationale Wirtschaft auf Englisch an der ELTE-Universität in Budapest. Mathematik hat mich schon immer fasziniert, besonders das Erklären und Weitergeben von Wissen. Deshalb habe ich mich entschieden, als Tutorin zu arbeiten. Mein Ziel ist es, dir zu zeigen, dass Mathe nicht nur lösbar, sondern auch spannend sein kann! Mir ist es besonders wichtig, komplexe Aufgaben verständlich in kleine Schritte aufzuteilen, damit du sie leichter nachvollziehen kannst. Gemeinsam finden wir den besten Weg, damit du Mathe nicht nur verstehst, sondern auch Spaß daran hast! Ich habe mein Abitur an einem Gymnasium mit erhöhtem Mathematik-Niveau absolviert. Leider hatte ich einen Mathelehrer, der nur ungern auf die Schwierigkeiten seiner Schüler einging. Doch anstatt aufzugeben, brachte ich mir den Stoff selbst bei – oft stundenlang zu Hause – und bestand mein Abitur mit großem Erfolg. Das eigenständige Lernen hat mir nicht nur viel Spaß gemacht, sondern auch mein Interesse daran geweckt, anderen zu helfen. Meine erste "Schülerin" war meine Schwester, die sich oft in den einzelnen Schritten eines Problems verlor. Durch sie habe ich gelernt, scheinbar einfache Konzepte noch klarer und verständlicher zu erklären. Später unterstützte ich auch mehrere Mitschüler dabei, ihre Mathematiknoten zu verbessern. Derzeit helfe ich einer Studentin an der Universität in Mathematik, und bereits nach wenigen Einheiten sind deutliche Fortschritte in ihren Ergebnissen zu sehen.

Hi! My name is Amy and I’m currently studying Maths and Philosophy at the University of Leeds. I am a Maths tutor aiming to help students between KS2 and GCSE level to enjoy and understand Maths. Beyond studying, I have a passion for dancing and love to perform on stage. When I am not dancing, I also love to solve puzzles and riddles. Initially, I attended All Saints Primary School. Then, I went to Greenbank High School and received 11 GCSEs with grades ranging from 7-9. I took a mix of GCSE subjects from Dance and Drama to History and Further Maths. After High School, I attended Runshaw College. I completed A-levels in Maths, Psychology and English Literature and earned grades AAC. I also completed an AS-level in Further Maths and earned a grade C. I am currently completing a BSc Maths and Philosophy honours degree programme at the University of Leeds. I have completed my second year and will hopefully be graduating in the summer of 2026.
