About Issie
Hi, I’m Issie, currently pursuing an MSci in Chemistry at the University of Birmingham. I achieved 9 A*s at GCSE and A*AAA at A Level, thanks to my deep enthusiasm and enjoyment for science and mathematics. Over the past five years, I have had the privilege of tutoring numerous students, guiding them not only to improve their academic performance but also to develop a genuine appreciation for these subjects.
In addition to tutoring, I work as a bartender at a nearby restaurant—a role I thoroughly enjoy for its dynamic and rewarding nature. Beyond my academic and professional pursuits, I am passionate about cycling, horseriding, playing the piano, and cooking. I share my home with my horses and cats, who make my leisure time truly special. I love experimenting with new culinary creations and exploring the fascinating way chemical processes run out of and back into human lives such as the Maillard reaction in cooking!
My tutoring philosophy centres on empowering students who may find certain topics challenging or less engaging. I aim to build their confidence and deepen their understanding, enabling them to approach exams with assurance and a positive mindset. I have experience tutoring both peers at college and external students, tailoring my approach to meet individual learning needs.

Mathematics is the international language that forms the foundation of many subjects, especially the sciences. A strong understanding and proficiency in maths can significantly ease the study of subjects with mathematical components—such as statistical testing in biology, complex multistep calculations in chemistry, and numerous formulae in physics. In our sessions, whether online or in person, we will explore a variety of methods to grasp challenging concepts, from diagrams and videos to tailored revision techniques, always focusing on what works best for you.
Research suggests that 45-minute focused work sessions are optimal for concentration. However, I have set a baseline session length of one hour to ensure there is sufficient time for introduction, consolidation, and recap of previous topics without overwhelming the student. Lesson durations can be adjusted to suit individual needs, with fees adjusted on a pro rata basis.
To enhance learning during online sessions, I use a state-of-the-art digital drawing pad that uploads directly to our call, along with screen sharing, a webcam, and a wide selection of online resources. For in-person sessions, I bring printed materials and any necessary resources to support the lesson. My experience completing A-Levels has allowed me to discover and apply diverse learning and revision techniques, which I incorporate into each lesson. This helps students find the best consolidation strategies for themselves, making learning both effective and engaging.

Perfect! Issie has been helping my daughter through her Maths GCSE for the last 6 months. Issie is a gentle, caring and thoughtful tutor with exemplary commitment and teaching skills. She has been flexible and always ensured my daughters needs were met. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Issie and she will start work with my other daughter in September.

I cannot begin to thank Issie enough! The difference that she has made to my daughter’s knowledge, thought processes and confidence is beyond what I could have expected. Issie has adapted her style of teaching specifically to better engage with a girl who was feeling defeated and confused by both maths and chemistry and patiently worked alongside her with all the care and attention needed help her unlock her true potential. This is something that teachers were not able to provide for my daughter.
Practically Issie is flexible, always on time and goes above and beyond to ensure my daughter gets the maximum out of each session!
We really cannot speak highly enough of Issie!We found Issie on a recommendation and what an amazing find she is. She has taught my daughter in Maths and Chemistry for the last 6 months. Her confidence in these subjects has rocketed and the results are showing too. Issie is such a sweetie and my daughter really enjoys her tutoring time. Issie has a lovely way about her, she teaches in a way by not saying to your child this answer is wrong but instead saying why don't we look at it this way instead, building on that confidence. In Maths this is such a big thing and my daughter went from feeling she can't do it, feeling upset and frustrated to knowing she can and she is doing so so well now. Issie I can't thank you enough and I recommend her a million times over to anyone looking for a tutor. You won't regret it.
Issie has always excelled in every element of academia. She is my daughter and is reliable, incredibly independent and very kind. Ever since she started school she’s loved learning and helping others. She has a great ability in managing to clarify and explain any topics that she teaches and has helped so many people that our family knows. She is a pleasure to have as a daughter and I can guarantee any person who has her as their tutor will be more than satisfied.
I've known Isabelle for 18 years as she's my youngest daughter. She is a motivated, organised and highly knowledgeable young lady who has just completed her A levels and awaits her results, I have no doubt they will be impressive. She would love to share her knowledge with many.
