About Colum
Hello, I'm Colum, a friendly and committed tutor with exceptional depth in STEM fields and 4 years of experience. Hopefully, after reading this, you will know a bit about me and consider my services. Promoting science and maths is something I have done for a long time and very passionate about. I've founded and lead the school's physics club - the Newtonian Society - and serve as an ambassador for the International Astronomy and Astrophysics Competition. I have also written award-winning articles and research papers for the Harvard International Review, China's Chemistry Education Journal, and the Gold Crest award. I am particularly proud of the research project I undertook for the Gold Crest award, where I coded a programme to simulate the trajectory of charged particles. In my spare time, I enjoy reading books, watching movies, playing basketball, sailing, and playing the piano. I know how frustrating it can be when something doesn’t click – and how rewarding it feels when it finally does. My lessons are relaxed but focused, tailored to your goals, and built to boost both confidence and understanding. If you have any questions at all, feel free to message me. I will get back to you as soon as possible! Thank you for reading, and I hope to see you again!

I always prepare lessons in advance, tailored to your needs. I focus on building problem-solving skills in my lesson, abilities that will last a lifetime. I am against simply letting the student do repetitive questions. I can achieve better results, in less time. Homework is optional, but encouraged. Lessons are typically 1 hour long, but I’m flexible depending on the student’s needs and attention span. I teach Maths, Physics, and Computer Science at A-Level, GCSE, and KS3 (ages 11–18). I can also tutor for BPhO Olympiads. I’ve consistently achieved A*s in all three subjects at both A-Level and GCSE, received top marks in national competitions, and was awarded best in year for all three. I’ve also tutored younger students at school, so I know how to explain things clearly and patiently. Whether you’re just starting out, need help catching up, or want to stretch beyond the syllabus, I’d love to help you reach your goals.

He saved my A level grades. His teaching is very easy to understand and very effective. I would recommend to anyone aiming for an A*
Colum is intuitive and intelligent with a clear passion for mathematics. He not only understands the subject deeply but also explains concepts in a clear, patient and accessible way. His motivation to help others succeed, combined with his ability to adapt to different learning styles, makes him highly effective in supporting students to build confidence and achieve results.
Teaches very well, I understood what he was teaching. Very professional and has great value.
Colum has really helped me improve my maths ability, i strongly recommend him!
Very good physics teacher! Strongly recommended for GCSE and A level physics. Very patient and calm so the student can learn the way to solve problems very easy.
