Teaching style

My sessions are tailored for each student and are adapted during the session to ensure they meet each tutee’s needs.

I create and use unique resources to give a rounded understanding of topics, while also focusing on mark scheme specifics to ensure students are fully rewarded for their understanding.

I am an experienced examiner, marking hundreds of exam papers every year. I have an up-to-date and detailed knowledge of exam specifications and can teach students to think like an examiner. This will help them to improve their exam technique and, ultimately, their grades.

Ian is an excellent tutor. He is extremely professional, punctual and well organised. Our three children are all very different but he established an excellent rapport with each of them and they have enjoyed his sessions.

Ian worked wonders with our son who achieved a high B and with our daughter who achieved an A*, both in A Level Chemistry. They both said that they would never have achieved those grades without his help. Our younger daughter is progressing well with her Science GCSE studies and Ian has been brilliant, teaching her via Skype during lockdown.

Ian is an excellent science teacher, I can’t recommend him enough.

Ian tutored my eldest daughter in A-Level Chemistry, she achieved an A*. He also taught my youngest daughter with GCSE dual award sciences, she achieved an A* and an A. I genuinely believe these grades wouldn’t have been achieved without Ian’s help.

Paula

Ian is an absolutely fabulous tutor.

His impact on our daughter’s knowledge and therefore confidence has been immediate. He was able to identify some obvious gaps in her knowledge and was able to explain concepts in a way to make them clear, understandable and fun!

I would recommend Ian to anyone in the strongest possible terms.

Andrew

Ian has been a fantastic tutor for my son for his GCSE mock exams in Chemistry.

He made a real difference and boosted his confidence, as well as improving the actual result!

Dawn

Ian is currently providing weekly support to my son for combined sciences in his GCSE year. We have found Ian to be an excellent teacher who plans the lessons in advance and provides useful feedback by email each week. He is very skilful at explaining difficult concepts in an interesting and accessible way and I can see my son’s confidence building as he feels the benefit from each lesson.

Jean

Ian is really enthusiastic, makes the subject understandable and the learning experience fun, so consequently a lot is achieved in each session. Our son has benefited hugely.

He went on to achieve top grades, including an A in A level Chemistry.

Ian is an enthusiastic tutor who makes lessons interesting. He worked through the syllabus providing support in areas of weakness, setting homework to test understanding.
