--- About Me! --- I'm Danny, a 4th year physicist at the University of Edinburgh, currently undergoing a research year abroad working on a thesis at GSI/FAIR, a facility for high energy physics. My work involves a lot of programming, knowledge of physics, and application of engineering and design principles. I love inspiring others and talking about my subject, so any student who comes my way will hopefully leave feeling confident, ready for common exam questions, and most importantly, wanting to learn more beyond their curriculum. I play the violin to a diploma standard, love trying out new cooking recipes (sometimes with disastrous consequences), and really enjoy mountain sports, like climbing and hiking. --- My Education --- As mentioned above, I am a physicist at the University of Edinburgh on a year in industry at GSI. I am working on the upcoming DIRC particle detectors for the PANDA project and the EIC at Brookhaven (google these things, in my opinion they are very cool). This research of course involves knowing a bunch about programming, mathematics and physics! I achieved 4 A* grades at A-Level, in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Music, with the WJEC exam board. For these grades, I abused my poor printer, drilling past paper questions endlessly, so I am very familiar with this specific curriculum. However, mathematics and physics are very similar across all exam boards. There are common questions in every exam, and your child will become familiar and confident with these questions with me, ideally able to reproduce 'stock answers' with a high level of understanding and speed. This saves time in exams and guarantees easy marks; this is a major step in reducing exam anxiety, and one of the main strategies I used to achieve my marks. I taught a STEM program at a US summer camp. It was much more of a 'for fun' thing, so we focused on making classes lightweight and enjoyable, rather than drilling worksheets and past paper questions. As such, I won't exclusively bore tutees to death with math problems! I pride myself on being able to break down concepts into simple to understand analogies. I am also a huge advocate for using past questions as revision material. However, I recognise the importance for students to balance time spent on questions with going over textbook concepts.

Hello there! I’m Gem Levi, and I’m excited to make math fun and engaging for you! I believe learning math can feel just like grooving to upbeat music motivating, energizing, and enjoyable. With over a year of experience in ESL teaching and two years as a coach for Math Quizzers, I’ve had the joy of helping students improve both their language and problem-solving skills. Whether you’re learning the basics or exploring more advanced concepts, I’ll guide you step by step with patience and creativity. In our lessons, I use interactive activities, real-life examples, and a positive approach to help you build confidence and truly understand math. Just like music keeps me inspired, I want math to inspire and empower you too. I look forward to learning with you and making math an exciting journey! See you soon! Hi, I’m Gem Levi, a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering graduate and an enthusiastic math teacher! I’ve always loved solving problem sets more than writing essays, and that passion for problem-solving is what I bring into my lessons. I make math fun and practical by using real-life applications, interactive activities, and step-by-step guidance that help students build confidence and curiosity. My goal is to show that math isn’t something to be afraid of it’s a skill that can be exciting and rewarding to learn!

I have been tutoring with GoStudent for six months now, having formerly worked at museums, churches and summer camps. I enjoy working with children and am a current Sunday-School teacher and former volunteer with several youth charities. I also have two years of classroom experience with Years 2 and 3, but am happy to work with children of any age, teaching English, Maths, History, Latin, and RE. Please note I do not take adult learners at this time. I am a graduate of the University of Cambridge with a first-class degree in History, also having taken papers in Classics and Theology. I won several prizes during my degree, including three prize scholarships and the Roy Porter Prize for History in my second year. Prior to my degree, I took three A-Levels in History, Maths and English, receiving all A*s, and prior to that, ten GCSEs, receiving all 9s.

Hi! I’m Armi, an English educator with over four years of experience helping learners develop fluency, confidence, and strong communication skills. My lessons are fully immersive and conducted entirely in English, designed to be both structured and engaging so students can learn effectively while enjoying the process. My teaching approach is shaped by a diverse background. My military experience instilled discipline and leadership, while my international experiences in figure skating and fashion modeling have given me a broad, global perspective that I bring into the classroom. I hold postgraduate studies in education, along with degrees in Business Management (Singapore) and Marketing Management (Philippines), both earned with honors. I’m certified in TESOL and TEFL, and I also hold a Certificate in Professional Development with a focus on evidence-based teaching methods. These qualifications allow me to adapt to different learning styles and create lessons that are both culturally rich and academically rigorous. Above all, I’m committed to helping every student reach their full potential in an increasingly connected world. I bring a solid academic foundation, having graduated with honors in Business Management in Singapore and Marketing Management in the Philippines. I'm certified in TESOL and TEFL, and hold a Certificate in Professional Development with a focus on evidence-based teaching practices. These credentials reflect not only my commitment to excellence in English education but also my ability to adapt to various learning styles and student needs. My diverse skill set—blending academic rigor with a deep passion for literary and theater arts—allows me to create dynamic, engaging, and culturally enriched learning experiences for every student.
