GCSE Physics Tutors - Helping Your Child Excel

Hello! I'm Kufre, currently a medical student at King's College London, with a strong passion for the sciences and a deep commitment to education. My academic journey is highlighted by my stellar grades: 11 A* at GCSE and 4 A*grades at A-level in Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. These achievements not only reflect my grasp of these subjects but also my dedication, perseverance, and the effective study skills I've developed over the years. Alongside my studies, I have gained over three years of experience as a tutor. I've had the privilege of supporting students from diverse backgrounds, ranging from those preparing for their 11+ exams to A-level pupils aiming for academic excellence. My versatile teaching methods are customised to fit each student's unique learning style, ensuring their comfort, engagement, and ultimately, their success. Beyond general tutoring, I am proficient in guiding students through the university entrance process, including the BMAT, UCAT, and interview preparation. Drawing from my personal experiences, I provide insightful guidance to help students navigate these demanding steps with confidence and ease. Outside of academia, I am an enthusiast of calisthenics, a discipline that has fortified my resilience, determination, and goal-setting abilities. I firmly believe that these traits are equally valuable in a learning environment, and I incorporate them into my tutoring approach. This method helps students understand that learning, like calisthenics, is a process that involves setting and working progressively towards achievable goals. As a tutor, my mission is to not only facilitate academic improvement but also to inspire a genuine love for learning in my students. I strive to create an environment where students feel empowered, motivated, and excited to reach their full potential. I am looking forward to partnering with you and your child on their academic journey!

Hello, my name is Dominic and I am currently studying Biochemistry at University. My passion for this subject comes from combining my two favourite subjects from school - biology and chemistry - which allows me to explore how the human body works and why it works in the way it does. As a former participant in a tutoring programme, I understand the value of personalised support and guidance. I aim to share my experiences and knowledge with my students, and help them achieve their academic goals. Having been through the same experiences as my students, I can certainly empathise with the pressures that arise during the lead-up to exams and the exam period itself. My approach to tutoring is to begin by reviewing the content of the subject in question, ensuring that the student has a solid understanding of the material. I then help students understand how the content will be examined, showing the types of questions that will be asked and offering advice on exam technique, including how to recognise common tricks that exams use. Finally, I provide targeted support for specific exams, reviewing in-class tests or mock exams, and answering any questions the student has about the subject. I believe that my experiences and expertise can make a significant difference in helping you achieve your academic goals.

Hello! My name is Gavindu and I'm currently doing an Integrated Masters in Computer Science at the University of York. I have been tutoring for 2.5 years in Maths and Computer Science, as well as being a programming tutor for CodeNinjas. I have completed formal training in tutoring and have a lot of experience tutoring children with special needs. My teaching style consists more of building the child's interest in the subject, rather than teaching the content for the sake of it, since interest is what helps understanding and inspires further learning. With that, my lessons will be fun and engaging while being fully informative, as the lessons will be based fully on the exam specification. As for my results, I have achieved 9's in Maths, Computer Science, Music and all sciences. I also achieved an A* in Computer Science at A level and a few marks off an A* in maths. I have also completed grade 8 and 7 in piano and guitar, winning a formal competition for piano in the process. I am happy to do trial services to see if I'm the right fit for your child, and I'm happy to answer any questions you may have! Thanks for reading, Gavindu

I am a 5th year medical student at Cambridge University. I am interested in the science of learning and metacognition and how tools from the literature can be harnessed to have the highest yield study session EVERY session. My Grades: A-level Biology, Chemistry, Maths, Physics: A*, A*, A*, A* GCSE Biology, Chemistry, Maths, Physics: 9,9,9,9 My teaching style involves working from the ground up. Teaching the very basic foundation of the topic before adding the more complex concepts. To best teach, I use a mixture of verbal questions and mini-written assignments to ensure the student has got to grips with the concept. I find verbal questions requiring verbal answers really help the student work through their thought processes out loud and see where they are lacking in knowledge and need clarification. In addition to teaching, I will constantly remind the student of factors involved in effective learning, something I am very passionate about. A quick insight into factors that play a significant role in effective learning. Effective learning can be divided into 3 stages: Before, during, and after the learning bout. Before and after, you need to prime yourself for absorbing information. This includes things such as getting enough sleep the night before, being well nourished before starting work, and eliminating known distractions plus reducing the risk of distractions. Sleep for example is crucial for learning, both before and after a study session. Poor sleep leads to reduced motivation, concentration, working memory (The RAM of the brain), and reduced memory formation to name a few. Studies have shown that good sleep on the night of studying is crucial, but it doesn’t end there. For ample memory formation, sleep on subsequent days after learning needs to be optimal as well. During the study session itself, methods such as active recall and spaced repetition are common in the education space, but there are ways to improve on these methods to reduce the time taken to learn large sums of information. For example, the spacing of recalled information during a study session should tend towards being longer than shorter in order to give the brain the signal that that piece of information is worth remembering long term. An example of this is rather than recalling a list of words every 2 minutes, recalling it every 15 minutes will force you to make mistakes and provide a stronger learning stimulus. Recalling information too often is almost like re-reading the information because you have not let yourself forget some of the content hence it is dangerously close to simply recognizing the information. I believe the best thing I can do as a tutor is to make the student self-sufficient and equip them with the best science-backed tools to achieve the grades they want to achieve.

Hi I’m Yassin, I am a First Year Medical Student at UCL (University College London). I received all 4 of my interviews and all 4 of my offers back from UCL, Edinburgh, Sheffield and Birmingham medical schools. I achieved 3220 Band 1 in my UCAT and 5A*s in my A-levels: Maths, Biology, Chemistry, Physics and EPQ (on a medical topic). I achieved 99% in my Maths A-level, 94% in Biology, 92% in Chemistry, 92% in EPQ and 86% in Physics. I also achieved Grade 9s in all 10 of my GCSEs. I’ve got over 200hrs experience in tutoring over a space of 2 years. I love playing the piano, playing tennis, going to the gym and learning languages. I’ve achieved a Grade 8 in Piano, and I can speak English and Arabic fluently; and I speak near-fluent Spanish (C1 level). My friends would describe me as a talkative person but one who is dedicated when it’s time to focus on school work. I’m very sociable and make friends quite easily which I think makes interacting with my students a much more pleasant experience for them.

Hello there! I'm a passionate final-year medical student with a BSc in Clinical Anatomy. I have been tutoring for over two years now, and will continue to do so to support my education until I finally graduate in 2025 as a junior doctor. I specialize in tutoring GCSE and KS3 students in a range of subjects, including Science, English Literature, English Language, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. My tutoring style is tailored to accommodate learners of all abilities, ensuring a supportive and engaging environment that fosters academic growth. My teaching style involves exam-specific learning, to best prepare your child for what to expect on the big day. I will only use content that is included in their exam specification, which I use systematically for planning lessons and work for students. This way, when exam time comes, your child will have been exposed to nothing more, and nothing less than exactly what will appear on their examination papers.
