About Maxi
I first moved to the UK from Germany when I was 16 years old, initially only expecting to stay for 6 months to improve my English. I went to a sixth form in Essex and loved it so much I ended up staying to finish my A-levels. I then went on to study Physics at Royal Holloway, University of London and graduated there with a BSc in Physics in 2012. Still very much enjoying Science and with a specific interest in Astronomy, I started studying for a PhD at the University of Southampton. I graduated in 2021 after going part-time and having some time off to have my three children.
I now live in Salisbury with my family where I spend my free time as a vice chair in my son's school's PTA, volunteer at a preschool group and work on our allotment.
I am a tutor because I have a passion for science and find it rewarding to help and inspire young minds. Science and maths can sometimes appear daunting, but I am here to show you that they needn't be!

I'm enthusiastic about science and have a specific interest in astrophysics. I have a PhD in Physics and Astronomy from the University of Southampton.
To fund my PhD, I received a Mayflower scholarship, which required me to teach 25% of my time there. I assisted teaching of several different courses ranging from first to fourth year physics including maths, laboratories, electromagnetism etc.
I also helped to mark problem sheets, exams, course work as well as presentations. Moreover, I was a tutor and had regular tutorials with my four tutees. I guided them academically whilst also making sure that they were settling in well into university life.
As part of my teaching experience at university, I have taught students with a range of abilities and from different cultural backgrounds, including non-native speakers.
I understand that each person has a different leaning style and I adapt my tutoring sessions to reflect this. I'm friendly and personable and aim to put every student at ease because learning shouldn't be stressful. I'm happy to teach physics and maths for all age groups ranging from primary school to university level. I'm also happy to teach German for all age groups as I'm a native speaker. I hold a current enhanced DBS certificate.
The length of the tutoring sessions is negotiable but I generally recommend 1h slots.
