About George
Hello I'm George! I've recently graduated from Durham University with a degree in Chemistry. I'm happy to tutor in maths and chemistry at A-level and science at GCSE.
I have six months of tutoring experience and have learnt the key attributes to a beneficial tutoring experience. I believe students should gain a solid understanding of the content in order to solve problems for themselves and explain concepts to others. My lessons are adaptable to your preferred learning style and I believe inspiring a passion in the subject is invaluable.
Other than chemistry, I am an avid rugby player and captained my team in the final year of my degree. My other hobbies are listening to music, playing chess and hanging out with my friends.

I am a recent Chemistry graduate from Durham University. Science has always excited me but my favoured passion for chemistry began after a week working with a research team in Liverpool focussing on nanomaterials. I carried this experience throughout my degree and it inspired my dissertation on borophene nanosheets (2D boron).
From my experience in tutoring and my own experience within education, I recognise the key attributes to a positive tutoring experience. I highly value the understanding of concepts within the subject, a deep understanding of a subject allows the student to solve problems, answer exam questions and explain concepts. This is much more beneficial than memorising and reciting information. To help and prove the student’s understanding, at the start of each lesson I ask the student to explain what they had learnt in the previous lesson, in addition to this I set small questions with different levels of difficulty which are parallel to questions of their exam board.
I acknowledge that every student learns in a different manner and tailor my lessons to accommodate for their preferred learning styles/methods. During my years at school and college, I’ve overheard many times “what’s the point in learning this?” or “I’m never going to use this again”, resulting in a lack of interest and passion for the subject. Therefore, to combat this issue I like to show students examples of how the content they are learning is used in research and real-life.
Other than Chemistry, my hobbies include playing rugby, chess, listening to music and socialising with friends.
I hope to hear from you soon!

George is my friend’s brother, I asked him to tutor me just before Christmas in preparation for my A-levels in maths and chemistry. I prefer visual learning and George prepared for each lesson. George is patient and very calmly explains things. I felt much more prepared going into my A-level exams.
George has been a great tutor over the last 6 months. He accommodated my learning style and made sure that I understood the topic by asking me to explain the previous lesson and topic before moving on to new subjects. He was willing to go over areas more than once and in different ways until I fully understood the topic. He was flexible with times to meet my availability. George is friendly with a good sense of humour.
