I'm available for tuition in person (face-to-face) in Upton (Chester) and available online pretty much anywhere in the world! There's no clear winner between face-to-face tuition and online tuition — they each have their advantages and disadvantages. Face-to-face has a special type of interactivity, where experiments can be done and examples are tangible. However, online is very efficient, and with tools such as Zoom and Bitpaper, online tuition can really embrace the wonders of modern technology. If you are unsure about online tuition or want to know more, please visit my page dedicated to Online Tuition.
Services
My services include but are not limited to:
- GCSE and International GCSE Physics
- GCSE and International GCSE Maths

Please note that for GCSE I only tutor Higher Tier students, so I will not be able to help those who are not aiming for a 6 or higher.
I charge the same fee for GCSE and A-level, but have a discounted rate for times outside of peak demand. I also have a special monthly package for homeschool students.
| Standard time slot (before 5 pm) | £55 per hour |
| Premium time slot (evenings and weekends) | £65 per hour | Homeschool package (see below for details) | £300 per calendar month |
Homeschool package
A homeschool tutor is much more than supplementary enrichment, so it makes sense to treat it as a continuous partnership rather than an hourly service.
The package includes four one‑hour tutorials per calendar month, with flexibility to carry unused sessions forward. Alongside the tutorials, I provide curriculum planning, structured homework, and ongoing guidance.
Additional tutorials are available at a 10% discount on my standard hourly rate (subject to availability).
What do you get for your money?
It’s much more than just the hour’s tuition. It’s a continuous process of development. You will be able to find cheaper tutors, but you get what you pay for.
I know my students as individuals and combine that, my knowledge, and my experience to give the excellent results you see from my reviews. Also, even more importantly than the improved grades, students have an increased confidence and someone who can answer their questions.
