About Jonathan
Product of a failing comprehensive school myself, I attended Oxford University, King's College (University of London) and Birkbeck College (University of London). M.Sc. qualified I have a degree in Biology and Physics and a higher degree in Computer Science. I am a qualified fitness instructor and worked in the City as a software developer and project manager. I have run three businesses, including a tuition company that had over 140 students in Haringey.
Having recently relocated from Mexico City, I now live in KL - King's Lynn, not Kuala Lumpur! This allows me and my two young boys to be close to their grandma and grandpa and to watch Arsenal play occasionally... It is long overdue!
Examiner, Head of Science (4 schools, including one that is a G12 world school) and Schoolteacher in 4 continents. Previously responsible for online learning at large Academy in UK, I am a specialist in using Teams, Zoom, XYlink and Skype. I have taught online, remotely, in China, New Zealand, Germany, Mexico and the UK to classes of students in schools. I have done 1-to-1 internationally. I have trained teachers in UK schools how to teach online.
As a classroom practitioner I have delivered KS2, KS3, GCSE, iGCSE, A level, IB and prepared students for Cambridge international checkpoint tests. I have also tutored for 11-plus and Oxbridge entrance exams. A period of supply teaching in London schools meant that I have taught English, Maths, Science and IT in every type of school, from exclusive independent school to failing comprehensive; Jewish, Muslim, Catholic schools; girls, boys, mixed and special needs schools; primary, secondary and sixth-form schools. (I can provide references for all of these!)
The institution I went to as a child was shut down and I was literally the only boy to pass O level English but I went to Oxford. I wasn't that smart. My huge breadth of experience comes from my wish to find out how and why some students do well and others do not.
Plus, as Helen Keller said: "life is an amazing adventure, or it is nothing!" :)

In the build-up to the interviews and examinations for the top UK public schools, I can offer interview practice, in which we can record the lesson (at your discretion - this is not normally done!).
As a parent governor myself, I can offer advice regarding the institution and naturally, I can help the student prepare academically via past entrance examination papers etc. I can offer this for entrance at Y9 or 12 and for overseas or UK applicants. I have large banks of past papers available to use, having delivered online classes for prep schools.

Jonathan is an absolutely brilliant tutor, and we honestly couldn’t recommend him highly enough. He takes so much care to understand each child’s individual learning style and adapts his teaching perfectly to bring out the very best in them.
We’ve been with Jonathan since our daughter was in Year 8, and she’s now going into Year 11 - which speaks volumes about just how much we value his teaching. Before working with him, she had low confidence in the sciences and often felt overwhelmed. Thanks to his patient, supportive, and engaging approach, she has completely transformed - she’s now incredibly confident and achieved fantastic results in her mock exams this year!
Jonathan is not only professional and knowledgeable but also wonderfully friendly and approachable, which makes lessons enjoyable and stress free. He has a rare ability to explain complex topics in a way that’s easy to understand, and he always makes learning feel positive and empowering.
After all these years, we honestly wouldn’t go to anyone else for science tuition - Jonathan has been an absolute game changer for us. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares, inspires confidence, and gets real results, he’s the tutor you want.He’s a very good teacher — very friendly and able to make learning much more interesting. He explains concepts clearly, gives helpful examples, and makes sure you understand before moving on.
Explains information very well and does his best to include all students while making sure the information is being taken in
Jonathan was great for my son doing his GCSE’s. He did the online evening sessions and it really helped. It got from a 4-4/5-4 to a high 6-5 and we couldn’t be happier.
Jonathan is an amazing science tutor! He is easy going while being very professional. My son really enjoys his physics tuition and that work is reflected in improved grades. Highly recommend Jonathan.
Jonathan has very stimulating teaching style and lessons are very interesting.
Energetic. Great structure.
He used to present the lectures very nicely and involve my son in the process. Also his way of conducting lessons is very good.
Johnathan recently supported my son Benjamin with his A level physics in online lessons; helping him to increase his confidence, his overall understanding of physics and preparing him for his exams.
The support that Johnathan provided led Benjamin to obtain the grade he needed, which we were all very pleased about. Benjamin was always eager to attend the sessions and enjoyed his lessons with Johnathan.
I would happily recommend Johnathan for science teaching for A level physics and GCSE sciences. JuliaJonathan is coaching GCSE science to my daughter. He is very punctual and his knowledge on the topic is so clear. My daughter eagerly waits for his sessions. He explains the concepts very clearly, follows a set time table and includes few tests to increase her confidence too.
Highly recommend.With his qualifications in Science, Technology and Education, Mr J Walwyn is in an excellent position to deliver the very high quality lessons that he does. He quickly establishes a positive relationship with his students so that they very rapidly grow in confidence in their subjects. Displaying all the communication skills required, and vastly experienced, he brings a special warmth and enthusiasm to the highly professional delivery of his lessons. Dr. P.F.Walwyn, University Tutor in Education.
Jonathan and I taught Science together at King's Lynn Academy. He focuses on his students' academic outcomes with exciting and well-planned lessons that explain core concepts well. I can wholeheartedly recommend him as a knowledgeable professional.
