About Thomas
Whilst I have a passion for tutoring and encouraging a passion for learning one-on-one, I spend most of my time working as a marine biologist. I recently completed a PhD with the University of Edinburgh, studying whales in Iceland, and I co-direct a whale research and education charity (Whale Wise). My goal is to contribute to the conservation of the natural world and effective tutoring is an important part of that process.

I have tutored since 2015, ranging from private tutoring (primary school to master's level) to university teaching (BSc and MSc students).
I teach at all levels between primary school and master's level. Lessons last 30-60 minutes, depending on your preferences and the subject in question. My approach is interactive: I encourage the student to prepare for each tutorial; I start each tutorial by asking the student to answer questions and solve problems that involve applying relevant information; and we review each answer together in turn. Diagrams and drawings generally form a major part of my tutorials.
Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
As a family member I know Thomas to be very personable, friendly and approachable. He is exceptionally knowledgeable and is able to convey the subject matter in a clear and structured way. He is also very patient and mindful of difficulties some students may face in understanding the subject and I know he is committed to making every lesson interesting and confidence boosting. He also takes time to fully prepare his lessons to suit the needs of the individual student and to encourage enjoyment of the subject as well as understanding.
I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Tom for the past 6 years. Beyond being a very kind and generous person, Tom is an extremely talented scientist and supervisor. Tom assisted in supervising my Master’s thesis, as well as multiple other students, at the University of Edinburgh. He did a fantastic job in guiding and helping me through the complexities of the thesis. I was extremely grateful for his expertise and skill of explaining difficult concepts in a clear and easy to understand way.
