About Jem
I have over 1000 hours tutorial experience teaching the three sciences, computing, and mathematics. I have also taught first-year university mathematics for business students, and received specialist training for one-on-one tutoring.
I am an excellent private tutor.
I taught physics at St Edward's School Oxford for one year, and chemistry, computer science, and further maths at Charterhouse for one year. Both schools were very keen to keep me but having tried teaching I found I preferred private tutoring. However, these two years have made me an even better teacher.
I teach mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, and computer science from prep school to A-Level, including common entrance and scholarship preparation. I have spent five years at both Oxford and Cambridge, and as such am particularly familiar with how things work at these institutions. I can help with interview preparation and the whole application process.
I understand how important the quality of teaching is. It is very easy to make a simple concept appear complicated and confusing. But the flip side of this is that with good teaching, a complicated concept can be made simple! I find it to be extremely satisfying to communicate complex ideas in a comprehensible manner, and observe and share the student's pleasure with their new-found understanding and skills.

Recommendations

Dr Pearson is a very patient and knowledgeable teacher who never fails to take the time to carefully explain a topic from start to finish. Given his experience, he has a vast knowledge of different exam boards and can offer his expertise adeptly. He is a very wonderful teacher :)
Jem is one-of-a-kind.
Before having him as my A-level physics teacher, I had always felt bored by the subject. Jem completely flipped that.
He has an interactive and energetic approach to teaching, which is something highly unique.
He organized physics clubs, projects, and taught us how to crush application tests and Olympiads, showing us all sides of physics.
Although I never had him for maths, many of his lessons consisted of deriving physics formulae and teaching us how to tackle problems through more advanced mathematical methods.
If you choose Jem, you won't be choosing another burnt-out tutor; you'll be choosing a professional who is well-regarded and truly passionate about your success.Jem taught me physics last year and is genuinely one of the best teachers I’ve had. He’s extremely knowledgeable and explains complex topics in a way that’s easy to understand. He also clearly outlines how to approach exam questions, helping us predict marking points and write more accurate answers. In addition, he’s been very supportive outside of school and is always available and happy to help.
I worked with Jem for several years. He is an exceptional teacher - knowledgeable, patient and genuinely committed to helping students succeed. I recommend him with complete confidence.
He taught me A-level Physics, where I achieved an A*. The experience was genuinely stellar. He is incredibly friendly and patient, and he never hesitates to explain a topic again, no matter how many times it takes for you to understand it. He creates a stress-free environment that makes it easy to ask questions and actually enjoy learning, which played a huge role in my academic progress.
Dr Jem Pearson taught me most of my AS levels. He taught me content in a really intuitive way, making complicated topics really easy to understand and digest, and now is a legend in our school for saving people’s grades. 10/10 would recommend, overall a great teacher who makes learning easy.
