About:
I am a certified Physics teacher, with over 20 years of international experience. My specialist programs are IBDP Physics (SL and HL), teaching the theory and skills of IB Physics as well as guiding Physics Internal Assessments. I am an IBDP Physics examiner, co-author of the only IBDP Physics textbook of Kognity and I developed part of the IBDP Physics course material for Pamoja-Oxford. My lessons are highly interactive and I have helped many students to excel in Physics and many IB students achieve high grades for their IA. During the holidays I teach IB DP Physics revision courses to prepare students for their exams.
Teaching experience and approach:
I hold a double Bachelor's degree in Science and in Physics Education and my over three decades' experience teaching has taken me to Africa, Asia, Europe, the UK and South America. I love teaching physics and making it interesting and relevant. I have been able to motivate and inspire many students who initially started with a dislike of the subject and changed into excited physics learners. As a tutor I will first try to identify student's problem areas and work with them in a positive and constructive way to achieve success. I design my online lessons based on my students’ needs with an emphasis on confidence - boosting activities, explaining difficult concepts, improving examination skills and practicing exam style questions. I will promise you personal guidance every step of the way to your exam.
