Gavin R.

I am a great believer in education. I have studied for various disciplines and have multiple degrees and continue to learn more. My passion for learning means I enjoy helping others realise their potential. Since I have multiple qualifications, I am able to bridge the gap between the natural sciences and the social sciences. I teach both physics and psychology at the top performing independent school in the UK. I am an examiner, marking exams each year as well as creating curriculum and exam content.

I offer a highly bespoke tuition style. I have taught students who are particularly gifted, and I have taught those students who have been disadvantaged and therefore struggle with education. I have helped students who have unique learning needs. I do not believe that there is only one teaching method, that each student will benefit from a varied approach. Some of us prefer visual learning and some prefer auditory methods. Some students need to go back to basics and have ideas explained to them afresh, whilst others prefer to consolidate their existing knowledge. I will create a unique learning plan for each student based on their current ability, the needs they have identified and by considering what it is they want to achieve. A typical lesson would include covering theory and examination technique, by using textbook material, videos and example questions.
