Andrew

I am a qualified and experienced lecturer in Chemistry with over 20 years experience of teaching including one-to-one tutoring.

I am qualified to doctorate level in chemistry from the University of Oxford and have an extensive subject knowledge and great enthusiasm for the subject. I have also completed a PGDE in secondary science giving me experience of teaching A-level, AS-level and GCSE chemistry and physics.

I am happy to offer a free trial session for any potential student as it is important to make sure you have the right tutor for you. For that reason I will not contact you so if you are interested please message me and I will reply.

Please note that I only tutor A-level chemistry on the Wirral and I do not tutor online or at weekends. I am also happy to offer small group, one off or occasional sessions - contact me if you are interested.

Teaching Experience

I have extensive experience of tutoring A-level chemistry built up over 11 years. The results have been positive with students achieving the grades that they need to get on to their chosen university course including medicine, dentistry etc. I also organise, through my job, a popular A-level chemistry revision course each year. Additionally, I have experience of teaching science at KS3, chemistry and physics at both GCSE and A-level.

Tutoring Approach

I work with the student to deepen their understanding of the topics to allow them to apply their knowledge when answering questions. I ask a lot of questions and work through exam style questions with the student.

We asked Andrew to tutor our daughter to assist her in her A level Physics. He was excellent and our daughter flourished with his help. She attained an A and this meant she was able to go to the university of her choice. We can not recommend Andrew highly enough. Many thanks

Andrew was great with the communications and very flexible working around my daughter's holiday schedule. He explained things clearly and helped her complete a couple of modules that she had struggled with. He also gave her the confidence to believe in herself again and she's gone back to university happier and working much more efficiently. Thank you.
