About Joseph

Hi I'm Joe! I recently graduated with a master's in physics from the University of Manchester after having grown up in Durham. I have always had a strong passion for maths and physics, and I particularly enjoy discussing and working together on problems with my mates - I am perhaps lucky that so many share the same passion as me! I find tutoring to be rewarding for very similar reasons, asking the right questions and talking through problems together can often lead to big shifts in understanding - those 'Ah I get it now...' moments are really rewarding to be a part of.

Away from studying I like to keep myself busy. This can range from going to music events with my friends in Manchester, playing a range of different sports (football, rugby, tennis to name a few...) or experimenting with some home cooking for my family!

I believe in developing a strong foundational base with my tutees, before advancing onto more exam-focused sessions. By focusing on mastering fundamental skills, students have the chance to build their own picture of their particular area of study, something I have found invaluable when tackling harder topics. This approach also allows the student to slowly build confidence in their own ability, meaning they are less likely to panic when confronted with more advanced problems down the line. I have found this approach particularly effective when tutoring A-level maths and physics, where often half the battle is breaking a problem down into smaller, more recognisable ones.

I have experience tutoring my younger brother and other members of his school cohort at both A-level and GCSE for both maths and physics. This resulted in significant improvements in both confidence and understanding, as well as exam performance (one student specifically went from a U to a B grade in AS maths over the space of 3 months!).

I find that teaching/studying for any longer than an hour without a break usually becomes counter-productive and would recommend hour-long slots.
