Chris D.

I am a highly regarded tutor with an OFSTED Outstanding rating as a teacher and over 15 years of experience in education. Currently, I specialise in providing AQA/OCR Chemistry A Level tuition and also work as a lead examiner for AQA.

I offer personalised, one-to-one online tuition to students, catering to their individual needs, whether it`s homework support, catching up on missed topics, or exam preparation. By closely collaborating with students and parents, I develop a tailored learning plan and employ various teaching styles to ensure effective understanding.

With online tuition, students can access my services from anywhere in the world. Using the online whiteboard, we can fully embrace the wonders of modern technology, making online tuition a highly efficient and convenient option.

My primary goals are to assist students in:

-Cultivating a deeper understanding of the subject matter to tackle challenging questions.

-Enhancing exam techniques by leveraging in-depth knowledge of the exam system.

-Achieving the best possible grades through exam tips and detailed feedback.

-Equipping students with high-quality resources to prepare for exams.

-Boosting confidence by addressing any knowledge gaps.

-Developing more effective and efficient study skills.

Aside from my experience as a teacher, my sense of humour and adaptability are also essential in meeting each student`s unique learning style and requirements. I genuinely care about providing the best possible support to each student, and it fills me with pride and joy to have helped over 500 students pursue their desired careers.

As an examiner for a leading exam board for the past eight years, I have gained valuable insights into what examiners expect in structuring answers to 3-6 mark questions. Additionally, my comprehensive knowledge of the exam board`s specifications enables me to tailor tuition to improve exam techniques and achieve better results.

Online tuition has made remarkable strides over the past decade. The advancements in technology and software have made it a reliable, hassle-free, and enjoyable experience. In fact, I have discovered that conducting sessions through video chat, where I can be face-to-face with my students, offers an improved experience compared to traditional, in-person setups. It truly enhances student engagement and fosters a stronger connection between the student and tutor.

For communication, I utilise PMT's online whiteboard, Lessonspace, which allows us to interact as if we were in the same room. This intuitive and interactive platform serves as our digital "paper." It appears on both our screens, enabling both the tutor and student to write and view each other`s contributions in real-time. What sets this whiteboard apart is its abundance of additional features that make the online tuition experience truly superb and enjoyable.

I will establish a dedicated virtual classroom exclusively for you, ensuring all your whiteboards from past sessions are readily accessible. You can also download and save or print your whiteboards at any time, providing you with a valuable resource for future reference.

Rest assured that my well-equipped setup and innovative tools will provide you with a seamless and enriching online tuition experience.

Feel free to reach out to me for online tuition, and together, we can make your academic journey a successful and fulfilling one.
