I am a student studying theoretical physics at UCL who has experience of 1 on 1 tutoring in maths and physics but am fully capable of teaching chemistry. I have experience tutoring from primary school level to GCSE level but am capable of up to A level. I am very patient and like to walk students through the methods and examples until it is clear to them and they are fully confident in the topic being studied.
I have tutored 1 on 1 for 2 years from primary level to GCSE level maths and tutored 1 on 1 GCSE physics but after achieving high grades in maths and physics A level and chemistry AS level I am capable of teaching that too. I helped younger students to complete homework tasks in maths and physics and helped my maths GCSE student go from a G grade to a C grade in 6 months.
Personal profile
I have experience working in many environments such as under pressure in a busy shop and tutoring students 1 on 1. I am a very motivated individual and I am very determined to succeed in everything I do. I have a lot of confidence and can work well with others. I am also confident in speaking to customers and my ability to help people. I am a very polite individual and am always looking for ways to improve and gain experience in working. I am very academic and excel in academic subjects such as maths and science, and also enjoy music and fashion.
Experience
-Simon's Plaice chip shop: 2 July 2014 – 23 December 2014
This position included serving and communicating customers to make sure orders were right and the shop environment was pleasant to work in, preparing some of the food and cleaning the work stations. However, I did not wish to continue in this position as the hours I worked interrupted my studies, which was my reason for leaving. In this position, I used skills such as communication, working with others and working under pressure.
-Llantwit Major School: November 2014- October 2015.
Previously I also worked tutoring younger students in mathematics. I tutored at GCSE level as I achieved an A* at GCSE maths and a distinction in additional maths in Year 11 and I have now completed both maths and further maths A level and in which I also got very high grades. In this position, I use communication skills to help my student to learn and make sure she understood the work we were doing and making sure that my lessons were delivered clearly. I was much more independent in this position than I was in Simon's Plaice as I have to prepare the lessons and deliver the lessons myself with no supervision, showing I can work well on my own and independently.
I have also tutored family friends’ children 1 on 1 from primary level to GCSE level to help them with homework tasks and help them revise in topics including maths and sciences. This included me planning lessons and either going to their houses or them coming to my house and delivering clear lessons including past paper questions and example questions either found online or written by myself following their relevant scheme of work.

Education/Qualifications
Llantwit Major School: September 2009-June 2016
I have now finished my studies at Llantwit Major School after working for my GCSEs and A levels. I thrived in this environment as it helped me to challenge myself and build skills and knowledge for the future. At GCSE level I achieved 11A*-A grades and 1B. At A level I studied maths, further maths, physics, chemistry, and the welsh baccalaureate and achieved A*ABBB . In the Welsh Baccalaureate, I completed projects on communication, working with others and independent research projects. Also, whilst in year 13 I was on the prefect team, in which we had to arrange the sixth form prom independently. I currently study theoretical physics at UCL and am on track to receive a high 2:1 or a 1st this year.
