About RICHARD
I am a qualified teacher with a 2:1 degree in Chemistry and over three years of experience teaching in schools, privately, and through online tutoring platforms. I am also TEFL certified, which has sharpened my ability to explain complex ideas in ways that are clear, accessible, and easy to follow regardless of a student's background or starting point.
I have worked with students across a wide range of levels and abilities, and what I have come to understand is that most students who struggle with Maths and Chemistry are not lacking ability. They are lacking clarity. Once things are explained in the right way, at the right pace, the progress can be remarkable.
Outside of teaching, I enjoy playing the piano. There is something about learning music that mirrors learning a subject like Maths or Chemistry. It takes patience, practice, and the willingness to go back to basics until it feels natural. That perspective stays with me in every session I teach.
I believe every student deserves a tutor who is patient, invested, and honest with them. That is the kind of tutor I aim to be.

I know how frustrating it can be to put in the effort and still feel stuck, especially with Maths and Chemistry, where falling behind in one topic can quickly make the next feel completely out of reach. If that sounds familiar, you're not behind. You just haven't had it explained the right way yet.
That's exactly why I started teaching.
I teach both subjects because I love what happens when a student who once said "I'm just not a Maths person" suddenly starts solving problems on their own, not because the subject got easier, but because something finally clicked.
My approach is simple: I break complex ideas into clear, logical steps that actually make sense, using gamified learning tools, a virtual whiteboard, and a virtual assistant to keep sessions engaging and make learning stick.
Beyond the content, I want you to think calmly, approach problems with structure, and walk into that exam hall feeling in control, not just prepared.
I support GCSE, IGCSE, A-Level and SAT students, with homework support included.
Send me a message. Your first step from confusion to confidence starts here.

Learning with Richard feels easy and relaxed. He helps students feel comfortable, encourages curiosity, and steadily builds their confidence as they progress. Highly recommended.
I’ve worked with Richard as my English tutor, and what sets him apart is how intentional he is about helping you actually use the language, not just learn the rules. His lessons are always clear, well-structured, and tailored to your specific needs—whether that’s improving your writing, refining your grammar, or becoming more confident when speaking.
What I appreciate most is his attention to detail. He listens carefully, picks up on small mistakes, and explains them in a way that sticks. I remember struggling to organise my ideas in essays, and instead of just correcting me, he showed me how to think through my arguments step by step. That approach made a lasting difference—I became more confident and independent in my writing.
Richard is also very patient and encouraging.
He creates a relaxed space where you’re not afraid to make mistakes, which makes learning much easier and more effective.
