About Emma
I achieved a first class degree in physics from the University of Oxford, went on to study for a PhD in biological physics, and now I am a postdoctoral scientist in biochemistry. I have a strong academic background in physics and maths, and in order to match this with the biological knowledge I needed for my PhD and postdoc, I therefore have had to invest a lot of my own time in studying outside a formal learning environment. I feel this has made me flexible and sympathetic in being able to adapt learning goals in collaboration with the individual student.
I am happy to consider students pursuing learning on a 'non-traditional' or self-motivated route, as well as those who aim to achieve formal qualifications. I don't believe in an upper age limit for setting yourself goals!
I have been a college tutor for several years, and for several different parts of the undergraduate physics course, as well as the maths/statistics tutor for first year biochemistry, and a lab demonstrator for biological experimental techniques. I also helped mark the Physics Aptitude Test for three years in a row.

Although I am 'officially' advertising as providing GCSE and A level tutoring, I am also open to those who wish to pursue different qualifications, or no qualifications at all! I believe that the learning journey is personal to each individual, and I will strive to work with each student to establish their goals before we start work in earnest.
My teaching style has evolved from my academic background in physics and science, and is very much about learning how to approach problems, spot the common elements, and link them to your prior knowledge in order to reach solutions.
