I am a disciplined and motivated university student with a strong interest in analytical thinking and problem-solving. I enjoy breaking down complex ideas into simple, logical steps and helping students build confidence through understanding rather than memorisation. I value consistency, clarity, and progress, and I aim to make learning structured, approachable, and effective. I am currently studying Economics and Mathematics at university, where my studies focus on quantitative analysis, logical reasoning, and real-world application of theory. Prior to university, I studied at a grammar school, developing a strong academic foundation and disciplined work ethic that I now apply both to my studies and to tutoring.

Hi! I’m a multilingual Chemical Engineering student at the University of Edinburgh. I teach Spanish, English, Maths and Chemistry, adapting each lesson to the student’s level, goals and learning style. I focus on clear explanations, practical examples and interactive exercises to help students build confidence, improve their understanding and make steady progress. I am patient, approachable and happy to support both schoolwork and exam preparation. I am currently studying Chemical Engineering at the University of Edinburgh, where my degree combines advanced Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics, programming and engineering problem-solving. Before university, I completed secondary education (Spanish Baccalaureate) in Spain following a scientific curriculum. I also spent an academic year abroad in New York, which strengthened my English, independence and ability to adapt to an international learning environment. I hold a Cambridge C2 qualification in English and am fully fluent in Spanish, English, and Catalan, allowing me to support students confidently in these languages as well as in STEM subjects.

Having been tutoring online over three years now with experience of both groups and individual tutoring sessions, I have gained hundreds of lessons of experience helping me become a more effective tutor. I have tutored both A level and GCSE level maths and physics, as well as A level psychology, GCSE geography and some KS3 sciences and maths. In lessons I like to use active recall throughout to ensure that students are absorbing the material. A typical session will start with a few questions to assess a student's initial understanding of a topic. We then go through the content - focusing only on areas where they need support - before finishing with some exam-style questions to consolidate their learning My speciality is AQA for most subjects, the main exception to that is A level maths in which I did OCR. I have just finished a masters in mental health research, after my undergraduate in natural sciences (specialising in physics and psychology). This followed my A levels in which I achieved A*'s in maths, psychology, physics, and geography. What makes me a great tutor is that I am patient by nature and I understand the situation you are in, this means I will always make sure you understand what you are required to know, and ensure I find a way of tutoring that best suits you, whether that be by doing numerous exam questions to ensure knowledge or by gaining understanding through analogies to sports. At school I did A levels in Mathematics, Physics, Psychology and Geography. I then went on to study Natural Sciences at the University of Nottingham, specialising in Mathematics, Physics and Psychology. Following my undergraduate degree, I completed an MSc in Mental Health Research and Practice, also at the University of Nottingham. My main areas of specialisation are Physics, Mathematics, Psychology and STEM subjects, with a particular focus on Physics at A level and STEM across GCSE and Key Stage 3.

I’m a passionate, ambitious and creative tutor with over 5 years of experience making learning more engaging, less intimidating and a whole lot more enjoyable! My areas of expertise: • English & Maths | Years 1–11 • SATs, GCSEs & IGCSEs • Business Studies • Sociology • 7+, 8+ & 11+ entrance exam preparation (GL & CEM) What to expect from me: • High-quality, engaging and interactive 1:1 lessons • Creative games, puzzles and activities that challenge young minds • Personalised learning plans tailored to each student’s needs • Bespoke resources, regular assignments and exam-style practice • Proven strategies to strengthen exam technique and boost confidence I’m all about making learning feel less like a chore and more like an exciting challenge, while helping students build the skills and confidence to succeed.
