About Olive

I am an integrated master’s student in Theoretical Physics at UCL with a real passion for STEM. During sixth form, I took my learning further by completing a Gold CREST project in astrophysics, using university supercomputer resources to model galaxy formation.

Having recently navigated secondary school exams myself, I know firsthand how a tiny gap in understanding can cost marks, and how frustrating that feels. I loved the subjects I studied at sixth form, and my goal is to pass that enthusiasm on while giving students the confidence and exact strategies they need to reach their full potential.

I am based in Swiss Cottage and happy to travel ~2km from there for lessons.

About the lesson

I tailor every session to the your specific study goals, exam board (Edexcel, AQA, OCR) and learning style. My lessons focus on two core pillars:

Conceptual Clarity: we break down difficult topics into simple, intuitive steps - whether that’s helping you master expanding brackets and basic algebra, or helping an A-Level student grasp multivariable mechanics. I focus on why concepts work so students don’t have to rely purely on memorisation.

Exam Technique & Mark Scheme Precision: Understanding the material is half the battle; knowing how to ‘play the game’ in exams is the rest. We work through real problem sheets and past papers to master mark schemes and eliminate silly mistakes.

Lessons are structured in 60-minute blocks for students aged 11-18 (KS3, GCSE, A-Level, and Further Maths).

Perfect! I reached out to Olive after my son Jake experienced a crisis of confidence from a yr10 maths mock exam. Olive has been outstanding! She has demonstrated that she cares deeply, she is engaging, highly skilled. The tutoring included home work and Olive tracks progress and development, she has all the qualities needed for a tutor. Jake’s confidence and love of maths has rebounded. He looks forward to his lessons with Olive and it’s heartening to see how positively the tutoring is paying off in school. I would highly recommend Olive and will hold onto her as a contact for when my second child is approaching her GCSE’s. One very happy parent!
