Rugby - I played the sport for 40 years playing for my county being my proudest moment. I have also coached the game for 30 years coaching U18 level school sides , U17 Area 7 in the Southwest and organised and ran the Devon County 7's Tournament.
Cycling – I have completed a couple of Tours in the Peak District, enjoy the challenge on the road with the beautiful countryside around me. I am also a member Zwift which challenges me in the garage!
Weight-training – I enjoy this as it improves my mental strength and is also a great challenge.
TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Fully Qualified Teacher of Chemistry, Physics and Science for 33+ years, Examiner in Chemistry and Physics for 25+ years
July 1988 - Present
I have extensive experience of teaching Chemistry to GCSE, IGCSE and A level with Physics to GCSE and IGCSE across different exam boards. I am currently teaching Physics GCSE at a good school in Greater Manchester. I have taught in a variety of different settings from independent boarding, single sex independent, missed independent day and state academies. During the pandemic I devised a focused online curriculum in KS4 Physics and KS3 Science to give my pupils an online learning experience whether it be a one-to-one support session or a full lesson with a large group of pupils. Since the pandemic, I have significant experience in hybrid or blended learning giving pupils present and pupils at home an outstanding learning experience. More recently I have tried to bridge the with extra morning sessions which are well attended to prepare them for the first public examinations since 2019. Being an examiner for both Chemistry (GCSE, A level) and a current examiner for Physics (GCSE) I am aware of how pupils can overcome common issues and improve their grades using my focussed revision programmes.
I am able to teach all topics and papers for Chemistry, Physics and Combined Science to all tiers at GCSE and IGCSE level and all topics and papers for A level Chemistry.
I have worked for OCR as an examiner and a coursework moderator for Chemistry A level and GCSE. I currently examine GCSE Physics for Edexcel.
Love the lessons!
Love the classes and always excited to see what's next!!
From Anne-Louise and George
Noel is a fantastic tutor who worked with my son over the summer to help in his GCSE Combined Science. He really helped my son with topics he was finding tricky and explains things in a very clear, calm and engaging manner. Noel made it fun to figure it all out and my son's knowledge and confidence have increased. Excellent communication and feedback. Thank you."
