Maybe you're already doing well but know that there's much more room for growth. Private tutoring is not just about fixing problems or removing obstacles. It's about creating new possibilities, giving you better strategy and improving what you're already doing. That's where my mentoring capabilities come to the fore.
Clients choose to work with me because I am not just a one-trick-pony “tutorâ€, but a dedicated right hand man to those who are prepared to do whatever it takes to make the most of their talents.

Yes

I am a member of the Institute of Physics as well as the Royal Institution of Great Britain.
- What kind of experience do you have?
Over the past fifteen years, I have helped countless achievers accomplish their academic goals and win coveted places at a plethora of prestigious British Independent Schools, 'Russell Group' universities in the UK and 'Ivy League' universities in the United States.

With a unique skill of taking complicated issues and breaking them down into simple, easy-to-understand concepts, I am best known for creating exceptional results and impact for my private clients. Being a qualified teacher, my knowledge of the British education and examination systems is second-to-none, which allows me to navigate these areas routinely with focus and precision. Combining commitment and energy, I teach my charges in signature detail how to get the most out of themselves and surpass any academic challenge.
I have undertaken international residential placements in Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai and the United States and have tutored online to students in India and China.
I write regularly on tutoring and other matters of interest.
