Hi there. James here, from South Africa. I taught in London in Walthamstow for my probationary year in 1991, and then in Johannesburg and Kwazulu-Natal in South Africa for a total of 21 years. I have taught Cambridge A Level History and England and South Africa's English and History curricula. I am also a published researcher, poet, and author. I enjoy cross-country running. I like NETFLIX mystery series. I regularly get out wilderness walking and cross country swimming. Since February 2025, I tutor English and Religious Studies for GoStudent. I battled with learning difficulties at school. However, I did very well after school, because I knew that English opens doors. So, I set goals. Then I achieved a B.A (1985) and a B. Ed (1996) degree, at Wits University in Johannesburg. I did a Masters Degree in Theology (Regent College, Vancouver, B.C., 2001) and a PhD in Church History (University of KwaZulu-Natal, 2016). I believe education is a lifelong journey. We master English every day for the rest of our lives. So I'm still learning as I tutor GCSE students, A Level students, and juniors, to reach their highest goals.

Expertise: Biology, Chemistry and Physics Comfortable with all age groups. Prefer: GCSE AND A-LEVELS|| NAT5, HIGHER AND ADV.HIGHER (SQA) Education: Bachelor's (Life Sciences), Master's (Genomic Medicine) University: The University of Manchester Title: Clinical Scientist at NHS Manchester My teaching strategies are focused on concept building. I am an experienced academic content developer and tutor for students aged 7–18 years. I have a strong academic background with a holistic knowledge of what it takes to achieve good grades. I am a student-friendly person. As a tutor, I look after the well-being of my students both academically and pastorally. I always guide my students in critical thinking and future planning. I understand scientific concepts well. As an experienced tutor, I hold a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) degree in Life Sciences and a Master of Science (M.Sc.) degree in Genomic Medicine from The University of Manchester. My academic background enables me to deliver engaging and effective lessons tailored to the needs of each student, fostering their understanding and passion for the subject matter. I have also garnered numerous publications and awards in the field of science, academia, and research, highlighting my expertise and contributions. As a tutor, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to support students in their learning journey, providing a strong foundation in sciences, while sharing insights from my research and scholarly achievements.

I graduated in Mathematics and Computer Science from the University of Birmingham and teach Maths to students of all ages up to A level. I achieved A*A*A* at A level in Maths, Physics and Chemistry, reflecting the strong academic foundation I bring to my teaching. With my students, I ensure that their understanding of underlying methods is to the highest possible standard through rigorous practice. In my experience as a student, exposing yourself to different mathematical scenarios builds a great foundation for achieving the best possible grades. My biggest aim for my students is for them to constantly improve so that when they get to the exam, they are confident about any aspect of the syllabus that may arise. For my sessions, I will ask students what they wish to study and ensure I tailor the session around what I am told. If the student is undecided, I will plan lessons around pushing the student to challenge themselves in rigorous practice, with my guidance, around different mathematical concepts in their curriculum. For exams, my main aim is for students to achieve the best grades possible, meeting and exceeding their targets. My highest level of education is an MSci in Mathematics and Computer Science from the University of Birmingham. Prior to this, I achieved A*A*A* in A-level Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics. I have over 3 years of experience tutoring students in Mathematics across a range of ages and abilities, up to A level. Through this experience, I have developed a strong ability to explain difficult concepts clearly, adapt lessons to each student’s learning style, and build both confidence and exam technique. My focus is always on ensuring students fully understand the methods they are using, so they can approach unfamiliar questions with confidence and achieve the best grades possible.
