About Adam
I’m a friendly, outgoing tutor who loves of all things maths and science. I will ask you a lot of questions to stimulate a discussion of the topics that we cover, to try and engage your critical thinking skills and deepen your understanding of content beyond the level of the textbook. We will also have progress review discussions every 3/4 lessons which will give you the chance to talk about how you’re feeling regarding the new content and my teaching, so I can adjust my teaching style to fit your preferences. In addition, we will have content tests regularly to review your progress quantitatively, and improve your exam preparation.

My experience:
I have four years of 1-on-1 and small group tutoring experience teaching science and maths, with references available upon request. One of my most recent students just started an Economics course with Imperial College London, after achieving A*AA at A level in Maths, Chemistry, and Economics.
My method:
I’m a strong believer in collaborative Socratic teaching, which emphasises testing students’ understanding of complex topics through asking questions designed to break the topic down to its simplest concepts and then building it back up. This method of teaching is common across medical and law schools, particularly in the US, but has wide applicability within maths teaching due to its power in revealing gaps in knowledge or misunderstood concepts.
My belief:
Everybody is capable of understanding mathematics - issues in understanding generally don’t arise from a lack of ability, but from inadequate or inappropriate teaching methodology. Each student has their own preferences for learning new information, and will respond differently to the format the information is presented in (eg. Lecture, video, discussion, worksheet/problem-solving, etc..). Due to how our education systems work, teachers lack the time to intimately understand each student’s learning style/needs in a classroom setting. The benefit of private or small group tutoring is that it allows the teacher to understand the student’s learning requirements and adjust their lesson plans accordingly, which is something that any good tutor should do. I always aim to get to know my student’s preferences with regards to their learning, as I believe it is essential to providing them with high value education.
My typical lesson/student:
Typically I teach lessons of 1-2 hours in length. I am often capable of providing multiple lessons to a student within a single week if desired, although this cannot always be guaranteed. I usually teach GCSE/A-level students but can take on younger students as well.
Recommendations

As a parent, Adam had obtained my confidence and trust through his calm, enthusiastic and ambitious demeanour. It was a pleasure for both of my children to be taught maths and science by such an eccentric individual. Not only was he a positive influence, but he helped them gain assurance in their studies. I would definitely recommend him to anyone seeking to develop their children’s knowledge.
Having worked alongside Adam for 3 years at university, I feel confident in recommending him. He is a hardworking, organised and confident individual. His passion for science is clearly evident and consequently makes for an incredible teacher. He’s determined and has often stuck by me and supported me with work I have found challenging. I have no reservations in his ability to support students through their education and most importantly, he’s a laugh!
Adam was a fantastic tutor for my two sons. An attentive, smart and kind guy who always went the extra mile to help!
Cheers Adam!Let’s be honest. I am Adam’s mum, which means that I am his harshest critic.
Adam is much cleverer than me, and some people think that I’m quite clever. So that suggests that he is very, very clever. He has achieved great exam results (1st in Biochemistry) but I’ve almost never seen him study.
I’ve overheard him tutoring online. I think he is very clear in his teaching and has a good rapport with his pupils. In fact, I inadvertently found him his first two pupils and that lead to word of mouth recommendations, which the best reference one can give. He is very reliable, trustworthy and honest. I have employed him in my own business and it was a great relief to discover that he is very employable, quick to learn and finds a better way than instructed of doing the tasks that he is requested to do. Thoroughly recommend.See more recommendations
