Physics tutors available for Secondary School in An Nasim Al Gharbi, Riyadh

Education

PGCE (Physics) from King's College London, BSc in Biology (First Class with Honours) from Queen's University Belfast, A-levels in all 3 Sciences (Grade A)

Experience

I am an experienced Head of Science, Teacher and Online Tutor with a strong track record of improving my students' grades. I do this by identifying and filling gaps in knowledge and understanding, emphasising application of knowledge to new situations, and a focus on exam technique. I tutor the following at each level: A-level and IB: Biology and Physics; GCSE and iGCSE: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Combined Science; KS2 and KS3: General Science and Mathematics

Tutoring Approach

My exact style of teaching varies from student to student and depends on their style of learning, content requirements and whether they are working toward a specific exam. I use a combination of Zoom/Skype etc. and interactive whiteboard to work face to face and collaboratively with my students. This allows me to demonstrate how to solve problems as well as see student progress as they are solving problems themselves. Please get in touch if you would like a demo lesson!

Education

Bachelor of Secondary Education major in Mathematics

Experience

I have been a mathematics teacher for over 8 years. I utilize the deductive approach (from general to specific) in my teaching. This method helps students understand step-by-step procedures for solving mathematical problems, leading to better retention of the lesson.

Tutoring Approach

Basically, I plan my lessons to develop students' higher-order thinking skills, which are very beneficial for their future careers. I tutor students in mathematics from grades 4-12.

Education

phd in Education

Experience

I have been a dedicated tutor for 2 years, specializing in specific subjects or areas, e.g., English, mathematics, science, languages, coding, etc. Throughout my tutoring career, I have had the pleasure of working with students of various age groups and educational backgrounds, helping them achieve their academic goals and build confidence in their abilities.

Tutoring Approach

My tutoring approach is centered on personalization, engagement, and empowerment. I believe that every student is unique and deserves a tailored learning experience that caters to their individual needs, strengths, and goals. Here’s how I achieve that:

1. Personalized Learning Plans:
I start by assessing each student’s current level of understanding, learning style, and academic goals. Based on this assessment, I create a customized learning plan that focuses on their specific needs. This ensures that our sessions are efficient and targeted towards achieving the best possible outcomes.

2. Interactive and Engaging Lessons:
I use a variety of teaching tools and techniques to make lessons interactive and engaging. This includes multimedia resources, hands-on activities, real-world examples, and interactive online platforms. My goal is to make learning enjoyable and relatable, which helps students stay motivated and interested.

3. Building a Strong Foundation:
I emphasize the importance of a strong foundational understanding of core concepts. I ensure that students grasp the basics before moving on to more advanced topics. This approach helps in building confidence and ensures long-term academic success.

4. Encouraging Critical Thinking:
I encourage students to think critically and independently. I pose challenging questions, foster discussions, and promote problem-solving skills. This not only helps in mastering the subject matter but also in developing essential life skills.

Tutoring Approach

Well, in a few words: Targeted, efficient, bespoke and relaxed.
I teach lessons that are truly tailor made to my student. The way I teach will be informed by them and their ability, the way I structure my questions, the way I might even ask the questions, are all driven by that ability, and where they are in their development of mathematical thinking.
As I have had lots of experience teaching in schools, this is has given me unique insight into how teachers and lecturers think, (I used to be one) and what they would like to see from their students who are engaged in private teaching. I will be asking to see if they have noticed an improvement.
Short term gain is not the only thing on the menu, either. I aim to help students over the long term by also discussing revision strategies and memory aids to ensure that topics covered in sessions will remain fresh and exam ready.
Remember, an exam is not only a test of what you can do, it is also a test of what you
can remember.
Teaching is a two way process so expect questions. Lots and lot of questions. If any stumbling blocks have been encountered I will use a range of questioning techniques to get to the bottom of the problem. Once identified bridges will be built, and firm foundations laid, on which to build even more knowledge. Effective Questioning is how a teacher successfully does their job. One of the key benefits of Online Teaching is having the opportunity to assess a students’ knowledge in a relaxed, calm and non judgmental environment, and remedy where appropriate.
I aim to do much more than just increase grades however. I aim to inspire, increase confidence and show that Math ,physics and chemistry is something that everyone can do.
