Bio

Oxford and Sussex educated with a D. Phil, I have extensive experience in teaching Physics and Mathematics. I aim to share my enthusiasm for these subjects and support students in achieving success.

With a friendly and patient approach, I foster a supportive learning environment. I build on existing knowledge, encouraging questions for enhanced comprehension. When faced with challenges, I provide alternative explanations. My arsenal includes personalized exam-style questions and model answers covering A-level Physics, Mechanics, and Statistics.
