Hey I am Si Yeun! I'm a PhD student researching heterogeneous catalysts, and I have 1 year of experience tutoring Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology and Physics for GCSE and below students. Having had some tutoring myself during my GCSE period, I know how much of a nerve-wracking experience it is for both students and parents. With my lessons focusing on teaching based on the students' learning style, I hope to put those nerves at ease. Below is the list of subjects I teach and at which level. KS1/2/3: Mathematics, Science GCSE (Including IGCSE): Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology, Physics Current PhD student researching new catalysts for acetylene hydrogenation. My MSc achieved a First (1st) class classification in Materials for Energy and Environment at UCL, where I specialised in the interference of tyre wear particles with atmospheric ice nucleation. Obtained an upper second (2.1) classification for my BSc in Chemistry at Cardiff University. While my speciality is Chemistry on paper, maths and physics are integral to what I do in my current and previous research.

Teaching Ranges: Maths – Primary to A-Level (including Further Maths) Physics – GCSE to A-Level Business Studies – GCSE to A-Level Additional Information and teaching style: - Experienced working with students of different learning styles and abilities - Focus on building understanding, not memorisation - Encourage real-world examples to make lessons engaging and relatable - Encourage conversation and talking through problems instead of reading methods Degree Qualification: MEng Aeronautical Engineering – Loughborough University (First Class Honours) A Levels: Mathematics – A Further Mathematics – A Physics – A Business Studies – A* Key Achievements and Extracurricular Activities: - Chaired the Loughborough Volunteering Section with over 2,000 members, leading community projects and mentoring students - Volunteered over 500 hours whilst at University - Represented the university in Badminton competitions - Completed a Master’s research project on crash impact analysis using advanced simulation and engineering tools - Regular runner, baker, and climber, always up for a challenge or trying something new I attended Co-op Academy Failsworth, where I developed a strong foundation in maths and science and achieved 11 GCSE's (Grade 8 in Maths), before moving to Clarendon Sixth Form College, studying Maths (A), Further Maths (A), Physics (A), and Business Studies (A*) at A-Level. I then completed a Master’s degree in Aeronautical Engineering at Loughborough University, achieving First Class Honours. My studies covered advanced topics in maths, physics, and engineering, with favourite modules including Structural Design, Spacecraft Engineering, Computational Fluid Dynamics, and Gas Turbine Design. These strengthened my problem-solving, analytical, and numerical skills, which I now enjoy passing on through tutoring.

I am a dedicated and motivated individual with a strong passion for helping students progress and reach their full potential. With over 2 years of experience working with students of all ages, I enjoy taking on new challenges, setting goals, and creating a supportive environment where learners feel confident and engaged. Outside of tutoring, I love doing henna art, reading crime thriller books, and spending quality time in social activities with family and friends. Building on strong academic performance, I am currently pursuing my studies with a globally recognised professional accounting body. Alongside my education, I have achieved several qualifications and gained 2 years of diverse training and practical experience in my field.

Hi. I'm Ade, and I have been tutoring successfully for over 7 years now, with over 100 students (over 3 years on GoStudent with over 40 students), Grades 7 to 12, GCSE, and A-Levels. I have a Bachelors degree in Geophysics, a Post Graduate Diploma (PGD) in Education, and I'm currently doing a 2nd Degree in Mathematics. I keep my lessons simple, with a focus on consistent practice. I also tailor my lessons to fit the student and get the best out of them. Simply put, I help you understand the foundations of the concepts you're trying to learn, and we'll do lots of practice. I specialize in building students skill and confidence in facing and solving problems. I'm pretty good at it because I am always learning new things myself, so I never forget what it's like be a semi-beginner, and I tend to relate very well with my students experience. This helps me communicate very effectively and support them unconditionally, all the while holding them to high expectations (based on their ability). I am a learner, and I am very good at helping others learn. I look forward to hearing from you! I obtained my first degree in the physical sciences: a Bachelors degree in Geophysics. Afterwards, I obtained a Post Graduate Diploma in Education (PGDE) to hone my skills in helping others learn and achieve their academic goals. I am currently pursuing a 2nd degree in Mathematics.
