About Michael

I am fully booked on weekends and weekday evenings I am available weekday daytime or school holidays and study leave. I have 30 years' experience as a full-time GCSE Science teacher, private tutor and GCSE Examiner - I know the subject and where candidates often lose marks. I tutor online usually for 1 hour, but I can offer longer sessions if suitable. Many years of experience help me to explain the content in a way that is easier to understand for those who feel a bit lost - the content can be a bit overwhelming and confusing. Spending time one-to-one at the student's pace makes such a difference to understanding and confidence. More able students benefit from a faster pace, more challenging tasks, focused on harder exam questions etc. Everyone is different and so the tuition sessions will adapt and change to suit the individual, complement what is done in school, identifying and strengthening weaknesses etc. I have experience of all the main exam boards and use the latest textbooks for that specific exam board, not just a general science book. This does make a significant difference as they do vary on content and style. My experience as a GCSE Examiner made me so aware of how many candidates who seemed to know a lot of science failed to get good marks due to poor exam technique. Even now this is often not emphasised and practised enough, due to lack of time in school. In tuition sessions we can work on this much more, talking over why marks are lost, what to look for in the questions etc - this takes time and practice. University: - Newcastle University - BSc [2]

I love helping a student understand chemistry, often just one more explanation, at the right pace and level, can really help change from a confusing mystery to 'getting it'. Chemistry particularly needs the basics explained well, it is logical but if you didn't understand or missed something then it is confusing. To see a student gain in confidence is great. Everyone is different, learns differently and needs help in different areas and different ways. I use the many years of experience as a teacher, tutor and former examiner to provide lessons that suit the needs of each individual student. As well as covering the subject content I also work on exam and revision skills - important for improving grades and helpful for other subjects, useful skills now and in the future. I have helped students gain top grades, many of them initially not keen on science as a subject, preferring other subjects - that is fine, as long you are prepared to put in a fair effort.
I specialise in GCSE Sciences - biology, chemistry and physics and only do online.
NOTE: I only have weekly vacancies on Mondays 5.45 - 6.45pm or Tuesdays 6.15 - 7.15pm. I am available during HOLIDAYS for extra sessions. Occasionally someone may drop out, in which case I will update this.
