Hello. I'm Debs, nice to meet you. I tutor a range of subjects, all based on experience of teaching within school, college and less tradiitional settings. I love tutoring one to one as that is the best way to give the student exactly what they need. I teach Sociology, Business and English at GCSE and A level and I have experience of AQA and Edexcel exam boards. I have also taught Btec Business level 1-3 In 2023 I completed a Master's degree in Philosophy as I love learning new things just as much as I love to teach. I make learning fun wherever possible and tailor every lesson to the student's needs. I use a variety of methods so you won't get bored and I am always happy to answer questions and re-explain things. There's no such thing as a silly question! I appreciate people who try, no matter what their ability is, and i love seeing people achieve things that they never dreamed they could. Let me help you do that. Outside of work I enjoy reading, working on my allotment and making art and fabric items which I sometimes sell at craft fairs. MA in Philosophy Level 5 Education and Training Diploma Level 7 Diploma in business administration. BA Humanities (comprised of modules in Philosophy, History and Literature) University certificate in Social Sciences A level English, Sociology, Psychology 8 GCSE all at grades A-C

Hello! My name is Ekom. I am an online tutor specializing in the subjects: Physics, Chemistry, Biology, English, and Psychology. I help students understand these subjects and make learning easier for them. My goal is to ensure my students achieve their desired grades. In my free time, I enjoy baking and watching TV. I am dedicated to my work as a Tutor. I always look forward to learning new things and sharing my knowledge with my students. Together, let's learn and get those excellent grades you want. I have always had a passion for learning, especially in the fields of Science and Language. My educational journey started with a strong interest in the Sciences, particularly Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. These subjects interested me and I enjoyed learning of how the world works, from the smallest particles to the complexities of life. I decided to pursue these subjects in depth, gaining a strong foundation in each of them. In addition to my Science studies, I also focused on English and Psychology. English has always been an area of interest for me, I enjoy reading and writing. Understanding the nuances of language has helped me become better at communicating, which is important in my work as a Tutor. Psychology, on the other hand, interested me and it has helped me understand human behavior, which is valuable in my professional and personal life. As an Online Tutor, I teach Physics, Chemistry, Biology, English, and Psychology. I help students understand these subjects and improve their grades by making learning easy and fun. My background in these subjects has given me the knowledge and skills to effectively teach students at various levels.

Hello, I’m George, a qualified and experienced Science teacher specialising in Biology. I began teaching in a secondary school and sixth form in 2020 and have more than 2000 hours of teaching experience and have taught hundreds of students across KS3, GCSE, and A-level, helping them achieve real progress and confidence in their science studies. My passion for teaching began during a volunteer placement in Ghana in 2016, where I taught English and helped coach local sports teams, seeing first-hand the transformative power of education. I later supported first-year university students as a Peer Assisted Study Leader at the University of Bristol, further developing my skills in guiding students to achieve their potential. I hold a BSc in Biological Sciences from the University of Bristol and a Post Graduate Certificate in Education in Secondary Science from the University of Buckingham. Through my university studies, I have not only gained expert science subject knowledge but I also have an excellent understanding of the latest teaching methods to help facilitate learning and, ultimately, help pupils achieve their goals. Beyond the classroom, I have been involved in conservation projects in Sri Lanka and Costa Rica, experiences that have deepened my enthusiasm for Biology and environmental studies — knowledge I bring into my lessons to inspire students. As a tutor, I tailor each session to the individual needs of the student, combining engaging activities with exam-focused strategies. I emphasise exam technique, including effective question approaches and time management, to ensure students are confident and fully prepared for assessments. My lessons are interactive, personalised, and designed to build both understanding and results. With my classroom experience, subject expertise, and commitment to student success, I offer more than typical tutoring — I bring a teacher’s insight and proven methods to help you excel in Biology. As a secondary school pupil myself I achieved excellent results, obtaining 12 GCSES all graded A or A*, including Maths & English, with A*'s in Biology, Chemistry and Physics. At A-level I then went on to study Biology, Chemistry, English Literature, Religious Education and also achieved an AS level qualification in Critical thinking. Following this, I attended the University of Bristol, a Russel Group university which is renowned for its world-leading research and academic excellence. Here, I achieved my undergraduate degree in Biological Sciences. Following this, I began working towards achieving qualified teacher status and took my first post as a teacher of Science at a secondary school in 2020. I attended the university of Buckingham and completed my Post Graduate Certificate in Education with a focus on Science in order to become a qualified teacher. Through my university studies, I have not only gained expert science subject knowledge but I also have an excellent understanding of the latest teaching methods to help facilitate learning and, ultimately, help pupils achieve their goals. Further to this I also have other experience in coaching and mentoring roles. In 2016, I volunteered for 6 weeks in a primary school in Accra, Ghana. My primary role was teaching English to students, but given that I have achieved a Level 3 Diploma in Personal Training and level 1 qualified rugby coach, I also helped to introduce organised sport in the school and also coached local men's rugby team, the Dansoman Hurricanes.
