Online Maths Tutor Sam

Hi, my name is Sam and I'm currently undertaking a PhD in the philosophy of physics. I previously completed a Master's in theoretical physics at Imperial College London and, prior to that, I completed an integrated Masters in physics and philosophy at King’s College London. I graduated with first class honours and was awarded a prize for achieving the highest mark in my cohort.

I believe having studied philosophy alongside science has allowed me both a deeper understanding of the subject, but also of the reasons students struggle with certain concepts and how to approach these difficult concepts from different angles to build up a firmer grounding in the subject. I have a very broad range of interests and have been fortunate to study widely, too, including on a year abroad at the National University of Singapore.

Most frequently, I tutor undergraduate logic, maths, physics, and philosophy, as well as those subjects at A-level, but have enjoyed doing a lot of tutoring at GCSE level and below, too. While the subjects at A-level are sometimes more conceptually interesting, strengthening a student's foundations earlier on in the progression very rewarding as this is what makes later, further study possible, and hopefully interesting.

Outside of academia I’m a semi-professional singer and classically trained pianist. I'm a keen cyclist and I read widely, both fiction and non-fiction.
