“I am an examiner for the OCR examination board, and I tutor in Science and Maths to GCSE, and Biology and Chemistry to A Level. I am also able to offer English to Key Stage 3. I feel I can relate well to the examination concerns of children and young adults, and my extensive experience has helped me to be able to communicate ideas and concepts to a wide variety of people.”
Tutor Profile
Teaching Experience
I have been tutoring since graduating from Imperial College London with a degree in Biochemistry in 2002. In this time, I have tutored hundreds of students and helped people of wide-ranging ages and levels.
Tutoring Approach
In my tutorials for GCSE and A-Level we focus particularly on exam technique and practice, a crucial area so often overlooked in the classroom.
Where exams are not imminent and there is more time available, I assess the student's strengths and weaknesses and first ensure that he or she possesses the basic skills needed for a solid foundation in the subject.

My daughter likes the Edward's biology lessons and finds them very helpful in her preparation to A-level exams.

My son Ryan was lacking in confidence before working with Ed. His teacher at school had been long term sick and he had only had supply for around 6 months. Whilst working with Ed he taught Ryan the parts of his subject he was missing and helped him understand other content. Due to Ed’s skills when Ryan had issues with Chemistry as well as Biology he was able to assist him in that subject too. Overall Ryan has been very happy with Ed and his tutoring. Ryan’s understanding of his subjects was greatly increased with the support of Ed. I would thoroughly recommend him for other pupils who are looking for a tutor in science.

Ed did exactly what he said on the tin. He helped my son move up a grade by dedicated exam question practice. My son enjoyed the sessions and they focused his mind.
Tutor response
Many thanks for your feedback James, it was a pleasure to help Thomas!

Ed has given my son more confidence in his maths abilities, coached him on things he needed more practice in, and has gently encouraged him to find his feet.
