About Me
I am a fully qualified physics teacher after completing my PGCE in 2007. Since then I have worked in both state and private sector schools. I currently teach physics part time in an independent school in rural Suffolk.
In 2003 I graduated with a degree in radiotherapy and worked as a therapeutic radiographer for the next three years. During that time, I became involved in the supervision and tutoring of other students studying the course. This is when I decided that I’d like to pursue a career in teaching.
I am genuinely passionate about the sciences, with a particular interest in physics and space. I love to watch programs about astronomy and enjoy looking out for celestial events and taking photos of the night sky.
Tutor Experience
I started teaching in 2007 after completing my PGCE. Since then I have taught in two mainstream secondary schools and more recently in an independent boarding and day school. The latter is where I’ve gained the most experience and satisfaction from teaching. I have experience teaching across the ability range and with pupils from overseas.
My main subject is physics but I have experience teaching biology (KS3 and GCSE) and chemistry (KS3) too. With the recent lockdowns I have also gained experience with online teaching. I have been able to engage my students with the use of interactive resources like Teams and OneNote.
The specifications that I am currently teaching are:
AQA A level physics
Edexcel GCSE Combined Science
Edexcel GCSE Physics
KS3 General Science (school’s own scheme of work)
I like to think I have a calm and flexible approach to teaching/tutoring and enjoy sharing my passion for the subjects teach. I can adapt my lessons to a student’s needs to ensure they get the best outcome possible to help them succeed.
Topic Expertise
These are the areas/topics that I currently have experience in teaching:
AQA A Level physics:
