Ian WIld
I am a professional physicist who tutored in the evenings and at weekends for a number of years before moving into tutoring full-time in 2007. I am a specialist in access and educational software, and a regular contributor to parenting magazines on education issues. Since 2014 I have been employed by the health sector Skills Council as their online learning specialist.
My work ensures that I am fully conversant with the latest developments in teaching techniques and working with the visually and print impaired means you must be crisp and lucid in your explanations.
I offer a free initial meeting to allow us to get to know one another and to work through the issues with your studies you feel you might be having. We can then plan out lessons together or simply concentrate on those aspects that you feel most unhappy with. If you don`t understand something the first time around then I will try another way. There is always more than one way to explain a topic and I try to make flexibility the key to my approach.
