Experience
I began teaching whilst in my third year of university in 2019 and since then have amassed over a thousand hours of teaching experience. The majority of my students have been studying A Level Maths, Further Maths and Physics, or applying to Oxbridge and wanting help in the PAT, NSAA or STEP tests. However, I have also helped several students with first and second year Physics and Applied Mathematics courses at several universities including Imperial (as well as Mathematics and Statistics courses for those studying Engineering, General Sciences and others). Finally, I have taught several students at GCSE level, and a few at KS3 level.
I mostly teach Mathematics and Physics, but also have more limited experience teaching Computer Science and coding, as well as piano, saxophone and Spanish!
