Dr. Maxi Goossens-Maths, Science and German
Highly qualified Maths & Science tutor with a PhD in Physics and Astronomy
I am a professional private tutor with a PhD in Physics and Astronomy from the University of Southampton. I offer Maths and Physics tuition up to degree level and Chemistry and Biology up to A-level. I am also able to offer German tuition due to being a native speaker.
I am an experienced online tutor in Maths and Science. Recent examples include preparation support for Astronomy and Maths competitions, tutoring for GCSE and A-Level Maths and Science, home schooling Science lessons in year 4 and 5 as well as extracurricular project support e.g in Mechanical Engineering.
I have a passion for Science and completed A-Levels in Physics, Maths, Chemistry and Biology at a school in Benfleet, Essex. I then went on to study Physics at Royal Holloway, University of London and graduated with a BSc.
With a specific interest in Astronomy I then commenced to study for a PhD in the subject at the University of Southampton with a Mayflower scholarship. This meant that 25% of my time there had to be spent teaching.
Consequently, over the years I acted as a demonstrator helping students with their problem sheets ranging from first to fourth year Physics, was an academic tutor for a small group of tutees, marked exams and presentations, helped with the student labs and was in charge of an online Maths module. I tailor my sessions to each student’s individual learning style and their relevant exam board.
I use zoom and a collaborative whiteboard with a writing board and pen to go over concepts, ideas and calculations. I also have a visualiser to show Science experiments and book pages amongst other things.
I find it very rewarding to see students reach their full potential and I take pride in being part of that. I think Maths and Science are fun and strive to make my students realise that too.
Experience:
Book
- I acted as a teaching assistant for a wide range of courses ranging from laboratories to problem classes to online maths modules from first to fourth year physics.
- I was often the head demonstrator, leading a team of other demonstrators. I assessed students and provided constructive feedback on experiments and various assignments, improving student learning development. I marked/graded students’ problem sheets, exams and presentations.
- I provided academic advice and support to students both individually and in groups. I invigilated exams. I provided academic support as well as pastoral care to a small group of students. In addition to holding weekly meetings I answered email messages and telephone calls to provide quick assistance. I supported students with subject knowledge as well as general abilities in learning, studying and retaining information.
- I communicated with lecturers to provide the students with help in key areas and determined if there was need for supplemental support on my part. I assessed the varying needs of the students, proactively accommodating a range of learning requirements.
- I provided support to foreign students academically as well as emotionally to support their transition to a UK university. I acted as an academic referee for my tutees. I find it reаlly rewаrding tо see а student reаch their gоаls аnd tаke pride in inspiring аnd cоntributing tо their аchievements.

I graduated from City University (London) in 2006 with a BSc (Honours) in Mathematical Science with Computer Science, and I completed my post-graduate certificate in mathematics at Birkbeck College (University of London) in 2019.
I intend to start studying for an MSc degree in applied mathematics at Birkbeck College sometime in the near future. I completed my level 3 Award in Education and Training (formerly PTLLS) and I am currently doing my DET level 5 diploma in training and education.
I have worked as a functional skills and GCSE maths lecturer at Barking and Dagenham College & South Thames College (Wandsworth Campus) from November 2018 – July 2021, and I am currently working as a GCSE and A-level maths and digital (IT-subjects) lecturer at Newham College.
I have always loved mathematics and computer programming subjects and as such I have been tutoring since 2014. I have previously done some voluntary software development work for a software company – Alpine Interactive – and the technologies we worked with included C#, C++, Python, HTML5 and other web development languages.
Hence, I have always been enthusiastic about mathematics and computer programming subjects and I appreciate any opportunity I get to share my knowledge of these subjects with students on a one-to-one or group class basis, thank you.

Dr Anita Ingham-English & Science
Highly qualified Science & English tutor with a proven track record
I am a private tutor specialising in English Language and Sciences (Biology & Chemistry) at KS3 & GCSE levels. I enjoy interacting with my students and building up empathy. My teaching style is student centered.
I see myself as a facilitator as I believe that the student will learn more if we follow a guided learning approach in which I encourage them to ask questions. I am also an advocate for assessment for learning, which includes formative assessment and interactive activities during lessons.
Academically, I hold a PhD. from Magdalen College Oxford in Developmental and Molecular Biology. I also have a BSc in Molecular Biology and Genetics from Edinburgh University. During a sabbatical in Singapore, I made a career change to pursue another passion, teaching.
I obtained my CELTA qualification at The British Council, Singapore 9 years ago, and have been teaching General, Academic, Business English and IELTS Skills as well as Speaking and Pronunciation courses since then. I am also a qualified IELTS Speaking examiner.
As well as teaching Adults I have also taught English Enrichment through the Primary, Secondary and Junior College levels. I also teach KS2, KS3 & GCSE English language. I prepare students for their GCSEs in English language. In addition to teaching, I enjoy learning.
I have spent the last 8 years mastering Mandarin Chinese. I feel that being a learner helps me to understand the difficulties that my students may encounter when learning a new language. I hope you will consider me in your search for KS2, KS3 & GCSE tutor.
I look forward to hearing from you soon, and to having the opportunity of helping your son or daughter fulfil their own potential.

Dr Winston Tambyrajah-Science
Qualified A-level Chemistry & Science Teacher with QTS
I am a Doctorate in Biochemistry and PGCE qualified specialising in Chemistry. I have over 20 years’ experience in teaching A- level & GCSE students at colleges and lecturing at leading Universities for undergraduate students. My approach to tutoring will be tailor-made to individual student needs.
I always endeavour to teach even the most complex and difficult topics of chemistry in a simplified manner. Students will be doing loads of exam-type questions and answers discussed for all questions. This enables all learners to obtain a very good grasp of the subject and to build their confidence.
Which in turn motivates them towards achieving higher grades. I tutor subjects on A-level – Chemistry, GCSE – Science subjects; Chemistry, Physics, Biology. Further, I have many years of research experience working at Universities and have many high impact research publications.
I am proud of my A level Chemistry students’ performance this year having 100% passed and out of that more than 90% achieving A / A* grades. I Tutor online via zoom and in-person for students at various levels throughout the week.
I tutor all major exam boards, including AQA, OCR A & B, EDEXCEL. I have been teaching and tutoring A level and GCSE students in colleges and as a private tutor on the new 2015 curriculum for England.

Lessons will include exam-like tasks to help students familiarise with the exam and be confident in tackling the activities in the best and most efficient possible way. A constant practice of the 4 skills needed for the exams (reading, writing, listening, and speaking) will be also at the base of each lesson. Games will be included as well to consolidate learning and to make it fun. For KS4 students, past papers will be offered to have a deep understanding of the exam structure and to learn useful and pivotal exam skills needed for students to confidently succeed their language exams.
