The greatest secret to academic success is understanding.
Mastering the core fundamentals of a subject is what yields exceptional results.
This is why my sessions heavily emphasise your understanding of the first principles of Maths and Physics. I will connect different areas of Maths and Physics in ways you will never see in a traditional classroom. You will start to appreciate how a concept in Physics such as motion is deeply tied with Calculus in Maths, for example. You will start to truly enjoy the subject you are learning, your critical and analytical thinking will improve drastically and outstanding grades will simply become an inevitable consequence.
The data-driven approach
This is where my deep knowledge of Maths and Physics and innovation as an engineer have perfectly intertwined. I have developed the perfect tracking system for students to ensure guaranteed academic progress. Whilst an in-depth understanding of the core fundamentals is uncompromisable, your exam skills and techniques can only improve through guided practice.
I have built a massive repository of questions (past papers, practice questions from books, my own custom-made questions) for all the subjects and exam boards unlike anywhere else. The questions have been divided into categories such as: difficulty level, topic, subtopic, question type (MCQs or Written) and total marks.
Bespoke worksheets will be created for you after every lesson and your scores will be logged and analysed via the Academic Tracker.
For those undertaking the Full Academic Mentorship programme only.
Full Academic Mentorship
The Full Academic Mentorship is a monthly program designed to not only cover the breadth of the specification but the depth of each topic as well. It will stretch over the duration of Years 12 and 13.

This is where I take you through the concepts of each topic, show you plenty of example questions, how to break down complex problems into smaller and easier chunks, develop your understanding, critical thinking and reasoning.

Every two weeks we will sit together for 1 hour and discuss your progression based on the tracker. It is the perfect time for me to direct you to areas where you should focus more. These sessions are also your chance to give me continuous feedback- what is working for you, what is not, where do you need more help, are there things that are holding you back from performing optimally, how can I cater to your individual learning habits, etc.
Perhaps you prefer the volume of questions to be spread out more into smaller worksheets of different topics as opposed to one massive worksheet of the same topic.
Your pacing, needs, level of understanding, preferences and of course progression will be my biggest priority.
-
If you get stuck with a problem that you just cannot do, ask me straight away and I promise to get back to you within 24 hours of receiving your message. This is perfect for practicing questions. Suppose you are solving a lot of questions from a problem sheet and get stuck on a type of question, don’t leave it for the next lesson. Just ask me straight away!
-
The homeworks and worksheets I give you will all be marked by me and logged onto the tracker.
-
The data from your worksheets will give us real-time outputs of your performance.
-
Bespoke Study and Revision Plans based on your performance and performance statistics. This will be invaluable as mocks and actual exams approach.
-
Monthly reports sent to you and your parents. This is to ensure further accountability.
