I take a supportive, step-by-step approach to tutoring, using clear explanations, worked examples, and practice questions to build confidence. Lessons typically last 60 minutes online and are tailored to each student’s needs. With a Master’s in Automotive Engineering and a PGCE, I specialise in teaching GCSE Maths, GCSE Physics, and A-Level Engineering guidance. My lessons are suitable for secondary school pupils, college students, and university undergraduates who want exam preparation, coursework support, or help managing study time effectively.
