Aurelia P.

I’m a computing graduate from London with varied teaching experience, ranging from working as an after-school coding teacher for children as between 5 & 16 years old, to providing 1-to-1 tutoring in both maths and coding, to being a teaching assistant at university. I can break down maths and tech concepts to make them digestible for students Open University Arts and Languages Access Course (Currently Studying) Goldsmiths, University of London BSc (Hons) Creative Computing (1st) Modules: Maths, Web Design, Databases, Computer Graphics, Music (Sound and Signal) Sixth Form, Surrey A-Levels: Mathematics (B), Physics (B), Media Studies (A*)

--- 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.

Hi! I’m Teacher Tracy from Johannesburg, South Africa 😊 I am passionate about teaching English and helping students gain confidence in their language skills. I create lessons that are interactive and enjoyable, making sure students feel confident and motivated every step of the way ✨. I use visuals, roleplay, and a variety of creative methods to make learning engaging and effective 🎨🗣️. I have experience teaching students of all ages, from as young as 4 years old to adults, so I am happy to work with learners at any level 👶👦👧🧑👩. I love studying, reading, and languages, and I bring this enthusiasm into every lesson to inspire a love of learning in my students 📚🌍. Outside of teaching, I enjoy exercising, traveling, and socializing 🏃‍♀️✈️💃. A fun fact about me is that I’ve always been drawn to the creative world — I even wanted to be a model when I was younger 💫👗. In my class, mistakes are welcome, progress is celebrated, and every lesson brings you closer to success. I look forward to meeting you in class 🌍✨ I hold two 120-hour TEFL certificates 📜✏️, which have equipped me with the skills and methodology to teach English effectively to learners of all ages 🌍🗣️. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Communication Science from the University of South Africa (UNISA) 🎓🇿🇦 and a Higher Certificate in Economic and Management Sciences 💼📊, achieving 20 distinctions out of 30 modules 🏅, reflecting my strong academic dedication. I am passionate about academics and lifelong learning 📚✨, which is why I will be pursuing a Masters degree iin 2026🎓💡. I continuously work on advancing my skills to provide high-quality, engaging lessons for my students 🎯📝. I have 2 years of tutoring experience, having taught students of various ages 👶👦👧, which has helped me develop adaptable teaching methods and a deep understanding of individual learning needs 💡💖

I have always been passionate about teaching Chemistry, Psychology, and Biology, and I have been tutoring these subjects for over a year. It has been incredibly rewarding to witness students grow in confidence and develop a genuine enjoyment for subjects they once found challenging. To see young people’s interest grow as they begin to learn sciences for the first time and to help them build a better understanding of this is very rewarding. My goal is to continue helping students improve their grades by making learning engaging and accessible. When a subject feels difficult, it can be discouraging to persevere, which is why I strive to create a supportive and enjoyable learning environment. As a tutor, I believe in adapting my teaching approach to each student’s unique needs, ensuring that they find the subject both approachable and interesting. I have achieved 10 GCSEs, in which I received: a Grade 9 in Chemistry, a Grade 8 in Physics, Food Preparation and Nutrition and Geography. 3 Grade 7’s in Biology, Maths and German and 3 Grade 6’s in English Literature, English Language and Religion, Psychology and Ethics. I have also achieved 3 A-levels and received: an A in Chemistry, an A in Psychology, and an A in Biology. I am currently studying Biomedical Sciences at the University of Bristol.
