Maths and Physics Teacher in Durham

I am a retired teacher who entered the profession in 1973 having an honours degree in Applied Physics and a PGSE in Science education.. I taught mainly GCSE Science and Maths in the early years of my career but for the last 20 years I was Head of Science in a large comprehensive school with a large sixth form,my own subject specialism being Physics up to A level.

Tutoring Experience

A full time teacher of 36 years (1973-2009) with much experience of one to one home tuition.

Tutoring Approach

I love the challenge of helping students to overcome the barriers which are preventing them from achieving their potential.I think I have the experience and expertise to break down difficult concepts into simple logical steps and so restore self confidence of the learner.
