Expert GCSE Tuition in Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Combined Science.

Hurry - Book your seat for September while there are still places available !

Hello, I'm Steven and I focus all my professional skills, time and energy on improving the grades and confidence of the students I tutor. There are lots of tutors to choose from, so why choose me? To get your child the best grades they can get! Here's why I can do that:

1) I am an "Examiner" which means I mark REAL GCSE exam papers for the biggest UK exam board - and use what I learn to improve my students grades !

2) Fully qualified professional Teacher (QTS).

3) Independent proof that I improve my students grades - please see the 46 Five Star reviews at bottom of page as evidence.

4) Highly experienced - with nearly 20 years teaching.

5) MSc and BSc university degrees - and so deep subject knowledge.

6) I concentrate ALL of my time, skills and enthusiasm on GCSE Science and Maths only (no KS3, no A level etc) - this means I can provide my GCSE students with the very best help possible !

I mark 700+ real GCSE exam papers for the biggest UK exam board each summer. I use what I learn (common errors, misconceptions, poor exam technique, poor scientific vocab) to help my student to get more marks and improve their grades !

I offer the following:

£18 small group class lessons 1 hour online - highly effective & great value!

£125 one-to-one 1 hour online lessons.

The following is information on my small group 1 hour Teams classes:

Suitable for all year 9, 10 and 11 GCSE students studying with the major exam boards.

Each lesson is self contained – join any time.

Mini classes averaging 4 to 5 students.

Tutoring Experience

Deputy head of science and an outstanding teacher.

I am an experienced teacher and tutor who has helped hundreds of students make significant progress and improve their grades.

I have expert knowledge of AQA, Edexcel, Edexcel IGCSE, Cambridge IGCSE, and OCR exam board specifications.

I do not teach WJEC and CCEA as I'm not expert in these.

Tutoring Approach

I'm patient, honest and helpful and I believe that Science and Maths are fun, and learning them should be engaging and interesting too. When tutoring, I seek to identify the weaknesses of my students and then help them to improve whilst enjoying the process of learning.

Being a professional teacher means that I have a deep understanding of:
* The subject.
* Exactly what needs to be learnt for your exam and what does not (the specification/curriculum).
* Different teaching and learning techniques to help young people learn.

Many tutors are not qualified teachers and cannot provide ALL of the above - there is a big difference between understanding the subject and being able to teach it effectively...

Thank you for taking the time to read my profile and I hope to be working with you soon!

Best wishes,
Steven.
