Online STEP Tutor John

I have been tutoring for over a year and have more than 300 hours of direct contact experience, including GCSE, A-Level, STEP, TMUA and undergraduate levels. I am a registered supervisor at the University of Cambridge, meaning I have tutored Cambridge undergraduate students in sessions known as supervisions, which form a core part of Cambridge's education process.

As the subject that I studied at university, my subject expertise is mathematics. In particular, I have expertise in the STEP exams, since very few mathematicians have ever had to take them. I am able to teach at GCSE and A-Level on most exam boards and modules. At university, I specialised in applied mathematics, on topics such as mechanics, relativity, mathematical methods, complex calculus, variational calculus and fluid dynamics. In my final year (Masters year) I specialised heavily in fluid mechanics, and developed a particular affinity for low Reynolds number flow. My Masters essay was on Modelling the Hook Mechanics of a Swimming Uniflagellar Bacterium. I am now doing my PhD in biological fluid dynamics, with research interests including swimming flagella and the fluid dynamics of muscle contraction.
