I am very happy with our experience so far with Varsity Tutors. They matched my daughter with reading specialist Mary and she is wonderful! My 10 year old daughter feels happy after her sessions and believes her tutor has already helped her.

Alex

Certified Tutor

Hello, my name is Alex and I am a 19 year old Mechanical and Energy Engineering student at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh. I have A Levels in maths, physics and English language, which I achieved good grades in and am fully competent to teach.

Moreover, I was an Air Cadet where I gained a method of instruction qualification (teaching aviation studies) and a first aid instructor qualification. This has equipped me with years of experience in teaching to teenagers and adults.

Furthermore, I am dyslexic therefore, I personally understand the struggles that come with having a learning difficultly. Despite my dyslexia, I gained great grades and this proves others with learning difficulties, such as mine, can too. I did this through engaging and fun revision techniques that I utilise during teaching. Learning should be interesting and enjoyable while ensuring the student understands the exam specifications to gain the best grades possible. With me, this is possible.
I look forward to working with you.
