Physics is all about exploring the world. My style of teaching focuses on modeling processes that happen around is in nature in order to bring the relevant material subject closer to my students. My main goal is to clearly explain the content, address misunderstandings and help my students develop their independent learning after my sessions through working examples during the sessions.
My teaching experience includes a Post Graduate Certificate in Education and teaching in two different secondary schools in a range of ages. I have been teaching mainly full classes with the exception of out of school hours questions and support when asked by my students. I have also provided students support during a lunchtime school group where i had the opportunity to work on an individual basis and in classes where i was deployed as a teaching assistant during my training year. i have found that my students that pay attention in lessons and work independently tend to achieve excellent results.
My rates may vary based on travel expenses for distances over 10km
