Information About Sian

Personal Description: I am 35years of age and have a first degree and Ph.D in Chemistry. I am a trainee teacher and a mother to my active toddler. I enjoy tutoring to keep my mind active and also to help others enjoy chemistry as much as I do.

Tutoring Experience: I have a range of experience from helping in schools in inner london to tutor undergraduates at the university of Bristol. I have tutoring since **Telephone Number Removed** n standard, higher and advanced higher chemistry. I have currently been teaching for my first school experience.
