About Benjamin
I am a private tutor and musician holding a first-class degree (MSci) in Chemistry from Imperial College London. I am currently a research postgraduate at Imperial College London, researching novel MRI probes for brain imaging. My area of expertise is in inorganic chemistry, including coordination chemistry, NMR spectroscopy, main group, transition metal, organometallic, and lanthanide and actinide chemistry.
I tutor in the West London and West Midlands Regions. I am fully CRB checked. I received the award for best GCSE results (7A*, 4A), and best AS results (5A) from Plantsbrook School, and achieved A2 results of 3A* and an A - once again the best in the school. At Imperial, I was a member of the Faculty of Natural Science Dean`s List (top 10% of chemistry students) for all four years of my degree. I also received the HVA Briscoe Excellence in Inorganic Chemistry Prize in my final year at Imperial College London. I am able to tutor for GCSE, A-Level (including IB), and degree-level chemistry.
I have completed A levels and GCSEs and obtained very high grades in all of the subjects that I tutor for. I have also volunteered at my local school as a teaching assistant on my gap year and have gained teaching experience with both Science and Music students, as well as just general experience of teaching and being around children. All of the students I tutored said that I was a great help in getting them to achieve their grades. All of my students either hit or exceeded their target grade(s) for the subject(s) I tutored them for. I also completed work experience at Harris Westminster Sixth Form as part of my degree where I taught A-level chemistry lessons. I have also tutored throughout my degree, helping several students secure the grades needed to head to their first-choice university
I was the principal tuba with the National Youth Wind Orchestra for 3 years as well as holding principal roles with the Birmingham Schools` Symphony Orchestra and Brass Ensemble. I currently perform with and conduct the Imperial College Wind Band as well as being principal tuba for the Imperial College Symphony Orchestra. I also offer brass instrumental music lessons as well as conducting lessons, and coaching to small musical ensembles.

My teaching methodology is based heavily on practising questions and past papers. I believe that the best way to learn is to apply what you know. So many times I have witnessed children that think they know a topic because they have read their notes, but it is not until they actually try to apply their knowledge that they realise that they are not 100% confident.
The lesson structure varies depending on the person I am tutoring and how they best learn. This could be mainly through questions, guided worksheets, or PowerPoint presentations.

Ben is really good at thoroughly explaining anything that you don’t understand and providing an alternative angle when explaining. He is a really good listener and is able to help and encourage without answering questions for you. He is also able to build up your knowledge to a very good level over a short period of time.
Ben has supported me during my chemistry exam retakes of which I passed. He helped me understand concepts I previously struggled on. Ben is very knowledgeable, patient and provides excellent feedback as to technique and approach to problem solving. I wholeheartedly recommend Ben.
Ben is an amazing tutor. His ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and understandable manner has helped me grasp difficult material in inorganic chemistry with ease. He was patient and always willing to answer all my questions, no matter how many I had.
I am truly grateful for Ben’s help in preparing for my exam.Benjamin was clear in his explanations and made difficult concepts much easier to grasp. He has great resources for helping you learn every topic and many good practice materials in preparation for the exam. Benjamin is always available out of tutorials to answer any questions you have. I highly recommend Benjamin as he is a great teacher!
I met Ben during a chemistry summer school and his teaching made an impression on me so much that I needed him to teach me more. He has taught me from the start of year 13 and has drastically improved my grades by teaching in a very understanding way. He encourages you to ask questions and makes sure that what he has taught you, you fully understand. His PowerPoints are very informative and provided much aid in understanding the myriad that is A-level chemistry and any student would be lucky to have Ben as a tutor
Benjamin is the ideal tutor wether you’re new to chemistry or you’re more experienced.
With his fun and friendly approach to chemistry he has made my most challenging topics into my favourite ,wether that was breaking down topics into their basics or diagrams to visualise hard concepts .
Ben has helped me in physical and organic through both A-Level chemistry and chemistry modules of first year Biomedical Science . I have truly enjoyed every lesson , with his encouraging and supportive personality coupled with his expert advice and knowledge , Ben has provided me both content support as well as exam technique to help me achieve the top grades !He was extremely helpful in the way he explains things and he always asks if you need him to go over anything. Very well educated and knows in depth about the topics and is a very good tutor! Couldn’t recommend more.
Ben was a great help to me for my exams in inorganic chemistry. He was always happy to help me and re explain something if I didn’t understand it in a clear and a patient way. He had a lot of examples and questions to help me fully grasp the content and was always happy for me to send my answers before the session to go through.
Ben is a great tutor and so knowledgeable. He understood my course content and was able to explain and teach until I understood. He was always positive and kept the lesson focused. I received my results today and am off to uni this year to study Chemistry.
Ben is a very knowledgeable and well organised tutor. He helped me a lot in terms of understanding content better and was very prepared each lesson. Would highly recommend!
Benjamin's tutoring has been a huge support to me throughout my Higher Level Chemistry IB course. Even in topics that I find difficult at school, Ben helps me understand those areas with in-depth yet accessible explanations. After each tutoring session, I feel much more confident in the subject!

Benjamin is really knowledgeable in his subject and he made understand with ease all the concept by explaining them simply and clearly. I would recommend him as a tutor for anyone struggling with topics and problems in Inorganic chemistry
Great tutor! Ben is extremely helpful and patient when tutoring. He's very well engaged and really helped me in simplifying the content. Since being tutored by Ben, my confidence with Chemistry has really grown and I am able to answer questions which is something I was never able to do. I highly recommend Ben, the best I’ve ever come across.
Ben is an affable and intelligent tutor. He comes to sessions well prepared and will help you to succeed. He explains difficult concepts in a way that’s understandable and yet still makes the sessions very enjoyable. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

he posts videos on youtube and it is very helpful for a level chemistry
Ben tutored me in Chemistry from the start of year 13. I originally sought him out because he was attained an A* in Chemistry at A-level and was also studying Chemistry as a degree at Imperial College. His background in Chemistry meant that he was excellent at explaining key concepts and from his own experience in taking exams, how to reach those high grades. I thoroughly enjoyed and looked forward to tutoring sessions with Ben as he was really friendly and empathetic. I knew that after every session, all my uncertainties on a topic would dissipate. With his help, I was able to meet and exceed my offer to study Chemistry at University College London. I would definitely recommend him as a tutor for those looking for a Chemistry tutor but I am absolutely certain that he would make a great Maths, Physics or Music tutor too!

I had Ben as a tutor when I did my A levels and I put my grades down to having him as a tutor, definitely a worthy investment!!
Benjamin is a highly intelligent and organised Chemistry tutor who has the ability to tailor his tutoring to the needs of individuals. He prepares high quality resources and has an exceptional quality of preparing exam questions that allow students to improve upon their exam technique.
I can highly recommend Ben as a tutor. He taught me at GCSE and always found ways to make learning really engaging and interactive. Ben consistently gave high-quality, helpful verbal and written feedback. He really knows his stuff!
Throughout our time at university together, Benjamin was always more than happy to assist me with topics that I struggled with. Conceptually, I struggled with a number of the modules taught at my university. However, with Benjamin’s help I was able to pick my grade up and finish with a 2:1, and I owe a large portion of that to Benjamin. So I would very highly recommend him. He makes learning easy and if very knowledgable in all things Chemistry, so can easily explain concepts for your understanding.
Ben single handedly got me through my AS music exams. Without his tutoring, I wouldn't have been able to go on to UNI to study music. He's patient and calm and has a good way of explaining things so they seem easy and manageable.
Ben helped me achieve an A*. He always knows how to break down a complex problem into manageable chunks and explain every step. I would highly recommend Ben if you're looking for a tutor.
I have known Ben since the start of his secondary education. Not only did he excel at both GCSE and A level, there was a level of independent learning I have rarely seen during my career. Ben remained at the school as a volunteer in the music and science departments. He has an excellent understanding of how children learn, and how to meet individual needs. He still returns during university holidays to support pupils at the school. I would highly recommend Ben as a tutor.
