Hi, my name is Martina. I am an experienced Physics tutor and a fully qualified teacher with a master's degree from a Russell Group University. My master's degree final project was published in "Planetary Ring Systems" by C. D. Murray and M. S. Tiscareno, alongside the work of many prominent scientists.
In my career, I have been a teaching assistant, a teacher, a head of department, an online tutor and a content creator. I have now been working in the field of education for more than 10 years. I have experience teaching and tutoring AQA, Edexcel, OCR, IBDP, GCSE, International A Level and IGCSE.
Aside from teaching and tutoring, I love creating educational content. I was a book author for the Kognity teaching and learning platform and I wrote some Physics teacher notes for the popular Save My Exams website.

I love travelling, getting to know different cultures and trying new foods.
After studying and teaching in London for 5 years, I applied to become an international teacher. I worked in Riga (Latvia), Beijing (China) and Rio de Janeiro (Brazil)... the latter being by far my favourite, as I love the ocean.
I am a pilates practitioner and I work out every day.
I have two beautiful children.
I am an experienced Physics and Science tutor who has helped hundreds of students across the globe improve their grades. I have worked in the field of education for over 10 years and have experience teaching and tutoring Key Stage 3 Science, GCSE Double and Triple Science, IGCSE Physics, A Level and International A Level Physics and IBDP Physics.
I have been a teacher and a Head of Department and have worked at: Harris Academy Bermondsey in London (UK), the International School of Riga (Latvia), Harrow Beijing (China) and the British School Rio (Brazil).
3 years ago I decided to switch to full time tutoring; I have collected many success stories ever since and I continue to help students achieve their goals.
My main focus when teaching is problem solving and exam practice. Forget lengthy and boring lectures about content that needs to be memorised. Instead, you will actively work on exam questions from your exam board. I will teach you my very exclusive method that will allow you to break down and solve even the most challenging problems. If you follow the steps in my method, you will see a big improvement in your assessment and exam scores.
Personalised homework based on your individual needs is an integral part of the improvement process, so I expect you to complete it ;)
Throughout our learning journey, there will be several progress checks to make sure that our lessons have a tangible impact on your learning. The results of these checks will be communicated to your parents/guardians so they are involved in your learning journey.
If you would like to hear more about my exclusive approach, just get in touch and we can have a free 20 minutes chat.
Physics – I teach GCSE, IGCSE, A Level, International A Level and IBDP Physics.
Science – I teach Key Stage 3 Science, GCSE and IGCSE Double and Triple Science (i.e. Biology, Chemistry and Physics).
I have experience with AQA, Edexcel, OCR, Cambridge, WJEC and IB.
I know the above-mentioned Physics and Science syllabi and exam styles inside out.
My biggest strength is the development of a unique method to solve both multiple choice and structured questions. Students who follow the steps in my method have significantly improved their assessment and exam performances.
Very well explained.
Really good at explaining and breaking down larger concepts.
Very good. The tutor seems great. We are excited to start with Martina.
Martina is a very helpful tutor, even with a little time frame she manages to explain each topic in a way that makes it easy to undarstand.
Very knowledgeable and helpful!
good, explained optics very clearly and helped me understand refraction better.
Very compatible and easy to work with. She is always there for me.
I like the clear, concise and engaging explanations of theory and calculations, as well as the exam techniques and tips.
Great lesson with very helpful explanations.
informative and easy to keep up!
"I was consistently getting Es in my end of topic tests. I was struggling to revise the content on my own. Since attending online classes with Martina, my grades have begun to improve significantly. In my end of year exam, I managed to jump up from an E to a B. With further practice and help from Martina I am sure that I will be able to achieve an A/A*."

"Martina has been so helpful. She explains things very well, making sure I understand fully before moving on. She guides me on how to tackle exam questions in order to get full marks. She always provides extra support if needed, answering my messages and clearing all my doubts. These online lessons have improved my confidence and my ability to get the marks in exam questions, which ultimately meant I got an A* in my Physics A Level. I definitely recommend lessons with Martina for people looking to improve their skills and grade."
