About Peter
Hello! I love understanding things, and even more than that, I love guiding people from the dread of an upcoming exam or interview into a place where they feel confident and capable of tackling the most challenging problems. I'm a huge believer in understanding what the student needs and teaching for that, rather than sticking rigidly to a particular formula, making sure that I understand their likes and dislikes, interests and passions, so that as well as driving towards an exam result or other goal - we can work together in a way that feels exciting and familiar, rather than intimidating and boring. I'm confident that whatever it is you're struggling with, or need support with to achieve more - I can help, and we'll have fun doing it, too. If you're interested, in my spare time I'm a massive board game and video game fan, as well as a lifelong tinkerer, recently joining a community makerspace to help turbo boost my latest projects. I also run a series of workshops and events for games students at the University of Greenwich where I work as a lecturer.

I've successfully taught subjects as broad as Computer Science to Philosophy of Religion, where I've used a flexible and dynamic approach to tutoring which has consistently driven strong results for my students, as well as dramatically increased their confidence with their studies. I usually teach sessions anywhere between 90 minutes and 3 hours, depending on the student's needs. I'm comfortable teaching highly capable students from KS3 right up to undergraduate level, as much as students with specific support needs, with specific experience supporting students with autism and ADHD. With over 15 years of experience in private tutoring, I'm quick to understand the needs of every student I work with, establishing an effective but approachable communication style which allows me to evaluate their understanding and pinpoint what they need. I hold a Master's Degree in Engineering Science from Oxford University, and now teach Computer Science and Games Development at the University of Greenwich where I develop new course material and deliver a wide range of courses. I have extensive experience working with students throughout the secondary education age range, as well as university age, with some experience supporting students for 11+ entrance examinations, as well as Oxbridge entry and applications.
Recommendations

Peter is an outstanding lecturer who makes learning math, as funny as this will sound, engaging and enjoyable. He has a passion for both maths and programming and he enjoys teaching it to others. He always gives clear guidance and valuable advice making complex topics easier to grasp. He is also a great person to be around and always creates a comfortable learning environment.
One of the best things about Peter's lessons is that he keeps the balance between serious learning and a relaxed environment, so that you don't feel intimidated by the subject matter. He will build up the concept, guiding you to reach for the meaning yourself and complete your flow of thoughts independently. Peter really supports his students - it’s clear that he has a deep understanding of the material and he is seriously passionate about it. He helps you break down your ideas to understand core concepts and ultimately learn them better. As well as going above and beyond for his students, you can see that he loves teaching and goes well beyond his normal duties to give them the best experience he can, the strongest tools to learn, and the inspiration to develop their skills.
Peter has been my lecturer for multiple modules over the past two years, and his ability to make complex topics easy to grasp is outstanding. Whether it’s computing or mathematics, he breaks concepts down into clear, engaging explanations that make learning both enjoyable and effective. Every lecture or study session with Peter leaves me feeling more confident and equipped with valuable knowledge to apply in my work.

Details
I'm very happy to be flexible, and can usually accommodate any student's needs within reason. Whether that's unusual scheduling, intense periods over school breaks, or a particularly challenging topic - I'm happy to help. My first 30-min session via Superprof is free, so you can get a feel for how I can help, after that £20 per hour for in person sessions, and £20 per hour for online, for everything up to A-Level/IB. I've put a flat £20 travel fee for in-person sessions, but I'll waive that for any students that live within 45-60 minutes public transport of Streatham in South London, where I'm based, or where they're doing longer sessions. I'm happy to negotiate a discount for blocks of lessons or ongoing commitments! Undergraduate and Master's level will depend on the exact content.
