About Chris
My name is Chris and I am a full time professional tutor specialising in Maths and Science. I have been an A-level Physics and Science teacher for four years, an A-level Physics technician for three and offering tuition since 2016. I became a full-time tutor in 2019 and have been working with students both in person and online.
In my spare time I enjoy kayaking, canoe polo, mountain biking and climbing. I am very passionate about music, playing guitar and bass.
I am available currently for sessions running over Zoom. In previous years I have done all sessions in person 1-to-1. With the current situation I don`t feel that it would be appropriate to do face to face sessions. Due to the number of students I usually teach I feel it would put both myself and students at an unnecessary risk. Personally, I feel that students make just as much progress online as in-person tuition.
Please message me for availability, even if you have little options, I will try my best to accommodate all circumstances, as being self employed I have the flexibility to do so.
Identifying the area of improvement for a student is critical, some students struggle with a subject, not due to poor understanding or comprehension but lack of confidence, something very difficult to help within a classroom environment. Other concerns such as "the teacher moves too fast" and "the class are really disruptive so the teacher can teach" can be easily addressed with weekly support.
My degree background is in Physics where I studied a range of topics from low temperature properties of Helium-3 to using Lagrangian mechanics to solve unconventional mechanics problems. Having the depth of knowledge allows me to stretch a students understanding beyond the scope of even the A-level specification.
Mathematics is a highly important language to solving physics problems. It could be working out an equation of a line to show the relationship between two variables at GCSE or using SUVAT equations to explain the nature of a projectile at A-level.
I also run a company that helps schools develop their practical physics curriculum but looking at their equipment and teaching resources and how they can be best used to help the effectiveness of teaching.

Each lesson can be constructed around current school based content, or historic knowledge the student may not have grasped during the lesson. Using a mixture of past paper, stretch and challenge and problem solving questions I try to vary the activities to develop a broader approach to science rather than fact recall.
