About Matthew
I inspire young people to become more rounded, happier individuals, confident in their own abilities by helping them realise their potential. I have previously triggered life-changing decisions in young people by inspiring a passion for the natural world and will consistently look to provoke ambition in those I work with.
After finding my passion for the environment through years of travelling and SCUBA diving, culminating in running a marine conservation project in Belize, I have now returned to study Environmental Science at the University of Exeter. In being open and honest with students about my own struggles in conventional education, I hope to inspire a positive attitude that they can one day find the career that is right for them by working hard and chasing their dream.

My teaching style, developed in my time as a SCUBA instructor and later presenting environmental and conservation lectures to gap year students, is relaxed and uses the student’s passions as lenses to explore and understand subject areas. I like to get to know my students and tailor every lesson to the individual, ensuring I address the "why do I need to know this?" question in a relatable context.
In a global world, knowing the physical and human geographical differences between countries and continents is vital to business success.
Understanding angles is important for aspiring footballers and tennis players.
A knowledge of sound and light waves is fundamental to performing well on stage.
All knowledge is valuable.
My Geography lessons have an emphasis on real environmental and sustainability challenges that are faced in the world today, with constant reference and application to the GCSE curriculum. I like to challenge students to consider their own approaches to dealing with the issues our world currently faces, fostering original and critical thinking. The young minds of today are tomorrows leaders and I am acutely aware of this when teaching.
Lessons range from 30-60 minutes depending on age, catering for all levels up to GCSE. Please do not hesitate to send me a message with any questions or concerns you may have, I will always get back to you as soon as possible.

I can’t praise Matthew highly enough. Such a patient and thought provoking teacher. He has helped my daughter enormously and she is well on track to achieve a high grade in GCSE. She loves his teaching style; he makes the subject relevant and interesting and provides a clarity that makes it all make sense to her! Praise indeed from my daughter!
