Qualification:

Post Graduate in Teaching Physics , Kings College, London

Experience:

I have taught in schools and tutored part time for 26 years, most of which has been in the UK. I can teach all exam boards at GCSE and A Level (Physics),I have knowledge of KS3 Science. I enjoy developing a good rapport with a child and teaching according to their needs. I have worked with students from all walks of life and I understand that each child needs to be treated and respected as an individual. Each child is a gift and they all have the ability to conquer challenging subjects.

Please note last minute tutoring such as night before an exam is available but will cost 600 AED per hour.

Approach:

The first most important aspect is to find out what type of learner they are and which areas they feel they need to work on. The first part of the lesson would be to go over a particular topic according to the syllabus or curriculum. I then do a mini question and answer session to make sure the child has understood the basic concepts. Afterwards I would do topic or exam questions which would include questions of varying ability. Sometimes a child has issues understanding an exam question, this is where exam skill comes in which is another aspect of achieving the ideal grade. I like to give clues and go through the keywords in the question so that the child can extract the necessary information in order to answer the question; this is an extremely important part as students will start to notice what they need to focus on in order to answer the question next time. I also input my experience of those particular questions and if a child has struggled on that question then I would make sure that the homework given has more emphasis in that area.
