Sarah
I am an Oxford Graduate in Engineering, with many years' experience in private tuition in Maths and Science. I worked as an engineer for ten years prior to having children and now work mainly in education. I especially enjoy working with young people, and like finding ways to explain things so that students can get to grips with them and really grow in confidence.
Tutoring Experience
Tutoring has been my main profession since 2012. Prior to that I have been tutoring students on and off for over 30 years. I have a good success rate with tutoring to GCSE and A Level Maths and Physics, as well as teaching younger students in Science and Literacy. I particularly enjoy tutoring students who need extra help to reach their potential and achieve a better grade. I also have several years' experience as a peripatetic music teacher, and teaching antenatal classes.
Tutoring Approach
I strive to see the subject or the problem from the student's point of view, so that I can enable them to see where the next step lies and help them take it. In this way the student progresses step by step towards their goal and exam success. I aim to enable students to grow in confidence as they come to understand topics which were previously confusing. I like teaching 1-to-1, as this enables me to meet each student's needs, and I can explain things and tailor exam preparation in a way personally suited to that student.
