About Adam
To all my future students, my name is Adam and I am a biomedical/biological double major science graduate. I am 24 years old (nearly half way to 50 do not remind me) and aim to bring a professional but fun way in providing you with study grinds! In cohesion with my above degree I have also substituted in secondary schools to further enhance my understanding of how to teach in the most efficient and pleasurable manner, at the end of the day who likes to spend hours upon hours in the books?
You don’t know me yet, but I don’t want you to make the same mistakes I did. I know what it’s like to have a teacher who makes you feel like nothing you do is good enough, it’s a terrible thing to go through. However I also know what it feels like to have your life changed by a teacher who encourages you and knows you can accomplish anything, because they see your potential. It’s one of the best feelings around.
I am passionate about helping students learn and grow, both academically and personally. As a teacher, I have an opportunity to make an impact on young people during a critical time in their lives by teaching them important life skills and providing guidance that will help shape their future. I might not be able to promise the Ferrari or Lamborghini, but I will guarantee that you will learn something new in choosing me as your tutor!

My aim as a tutor is to create in my students a deep understanding and confidence in answering exam questions and being able to tackle new and unfamiliar problems. My philosophy is based on the idea that learning happens in an environment of mutual respect in which the student is encouraged to think and make new connections for themselves. My experience has been that one-to-one personal tuition has a unique value to students because of the ability to resolve the students’ personal barriers to learning in a way that lays the foundations for a deep and lasting understanding of the subject.
My approach varies depending on the student’s needs and learning style. However my teaching philosophy is based on encouraging students to think for themselves, using real-world examples wherever possible. I start from topics the students are comfortable with and move gradually towards more complex areas as their confidence builds. I use questions and examples to check understanding continually. I don’t lecture to students or ask them to memorise things. Nor do I do the students’ homework for them!
I usually focus on exam-style or past paper questions in order to check, practice and perfect the student’s understanding and technique. I also give a lot of emphasis to some of the less obvious but vital skills such as essay structure and technique, logical thought, and the effective use of numbers and graphs.
I believe passionately in the huge value of tutoring to students and take great satisfaction in seeing my students achieve their full potential.

Had such a great time with Adam. He taught both of our boys doing junior and leaving certificate biology and chemistry. Has a unique approach to teaching and makes it fun for them which seen their grades improve massively! Adam firstly came to the house and moved to online to make it easier for both parties, would higher recommend
