About John
Engaging STEM Student Who Makes Science Feel Accessible
John is a Bachelor of Science student with a strong grounding in STEM, able to explain tricky concepts in clear, everyday language. His paleontology studies require careful data analysis and structured thinking, which he brings into lessons in maths and science for primary and high school students. This tutor enjoys turning “boring facts” into real-world examples, such as linking numbers to patterns in nature, helping students see why what they learn in class actually matters.
Confident Communicator With Presentation Experience
Through his university work, John has developed strong presentation skills, regularly preparing and delivering structured talks on scientific topics. He uses this experience to break content into manageable steps, check understanding as he goes, and build students’ confidence in speaking up and asking questions. This tutor is patient and downtoearth, happy to rephrase explanations and use diagrams or quick sketches so that visual, verbal, and handson learners can all stay engaged.
Team Player Who Connects With Young Learners
John’s background in Scouts and fencing has given him real experience working in teams, following clear rules, and encouraging others to keep improving. He draws on this by setting small, achievable goals in each session and celebrating progress, not just test scores. Whether helping a primary student master times tables or supporting a high school student with exam preparation, this tutor creates a calm, organised environment where students feel comfortable making mistakes and trying again.
