Tom

I am an approachable and dedicated Aerospace Engineering graduate, passionate about inspiring and guiding students in their academic journey. Having successfully navigated A-Levels in Maths, Further Maths, Physics, and Music, I possess a strong foundation in these subjects and am eager to share my knowledge and tips for success. I am particularly adept at tutoring Maths and Physics up to GCSE level, employing a clear and relatable teaching style that resonates with younger students.

Beyond my academic qualifications, I am also deeply invested in music. Achieving ABRSM Grade 8 in three instruments and music theory is a testament to my dedication and love for music. I am excited to extend this passion to students seeking guidance in music theory, offering tutoring up to Grade 5. My goal is to create an engaging and supportive learning environment where students feel encouraged to explore their potential and develop a deep understanding and appreciation for their subjects.

Tutoring Experience

In my final year at university, I coached first-year students in their coursework and exam preparation. This experience was complemented by other roles in assisting secondary school students with their GCSEs and A-Levels in Maths and Physics, where I focused on clarifying complex concepts and equipping students for their exams. My involvement in tutoring also extends to the musical domain, where I have guided young musicians in holiday music courses and in understanding music theory.

Tutoring Approach

My teaching philosophy emphasises making learning engaging and fun, vital for maintaining student interest and stimulation. In Maths and Physics, I adopt a methodical approach, introducing diverse problem-solving strategies to cater to different learning styles. This helps students understand concepts more deeply and find their preferred methods. For music theory, I focus on integrating technical knowledge with practical examples, making the subject more relatable and enjoyable. Across all subjects, my aim is to build confidence, encourage curiosity, and create a positive and open learning environment.
