About George
I am a highly experienced teacher and private tutor. I have over ten years teaching experience, working in one-to-one, small groups and classroom settings. I have taught hundreds of students at all levels, including primary, Key Stage 3, GCSE, A-level and adult learners. I have also prepared many students for school entrance and scholarship exams. My teaching has been rated as 'outstanding' (the highest rating achievable) by Ofsted (the UK government's Office for Standards in Education).
Since graduating from the University of Cambridge in 2012, I have worked exclusively in teaching. As well as working as a private tutor, I have also been a school teacher and I have taught on numerous revision courses, Saturday schools and summer schools.
As a full-time private tutor, I am fully committed to my students. When I am not teaching, I use my time to plan my lessons, to develop resources that are tailored to my students' needs, and to study educational research to ensure that I am always using the most effective teaching methods available.
Through thousands of hours of teaching I have developed a highly effective teaching style. For me, teaching is about much more than just making sure that the student learns the content. Through my lessons, I help my students to develop the skills and qualities that they need to be effective learners in the future.
A big part of what I do is building my students' confidence. I believe that a lack of confidence underlies many issues that students have with learning, and I have found that as my students gain confidence they become more motivated and self-directed and, most importantly, they start enjoying learning (even subjects that they thought they would always hate).
Another major focus of my lessons is teaching my students how to study. I find that many of my students have never been taught how to learn effectively on their own. By teaching them the best techniques for teaching themselves, I ensure that they are getting the most out of all of their study time, not just the time they spend with me.
With every new student, I always start by getting to know them – what they like and don't like about the subject, which parts they already understand and which parts they don't and what they want to get from the lessons. Then I design a programme of lessons that is suited to them. By starting from the right place for that student, and building their knowledge up from there, I find that all of my students are able to make rapid progress – even those students who have struggled greatly with the subject in the past.
I have extensive experience working with students who have specific learning difficulties, such as dyspraxia, dyslexia and ADHD. With these students, I find that confidence building is often especially important, since they tend to underestimate what they are capable of. Part of this is helping them to develop methods of study which suit them. Please get in touch if you would like to discuss any specific needs.
Finally, here are some testimonials from previous clients:
“George is an amazing tutor. Very knowledgeable and has an excellent ability to communicate his knowledge. Would highly recommend him!”
"I cannot recommend George highly enough. He is a first-class communicator and made learning a joy for my son. Extremely knowledgeable in his subject, he has the ability to convey complex concepts in a clear and concise manner. My son always enjoyed lessons with him and came out of each one better informed and with increased confidence in the subject."

Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
I can't recommend George highly enough as a tutor. George is that rare person who not only knows his subjects in depth but has the ability to convey that knowledge in a fashion which can be absorbed and understood by the student. In addition to imparting subject matter, his teaching incorporates study methods, such as how to organise information and develop productive study methods. My children have learned important lessons on how to study from George that have been applied to other subjects as well.
When George taught my son Chemistry, he went from confusion to actually liking the subject (resulting in an A* in his GCSE -- a previously unthinkable grade). George is now tutoring my daughter in Chemistry and Physics and, as with her brother, her frustrations have decreased and scores increased. I have recommended George to others whose children were struggling and they experienced similar success.George is a wonderful teacher who inspires his students and gets great results. He is patient, committed and dedicated.
