Maths, Physics, Further Maths to A Level and beyond offered -- PhD and professional research experience

Dear all,

I am currently expanding my availability for freelance tutoring clients, so wanted to post my contact details here. My qualifications are a degree and PhD in Physics & Applied Maths, and several years' experience in professional Physics research. Despite (actually because of) this high-level experience I focus on a grounded, intuitive approach to these subjects that emphasises two-way communication. I encourage students to see how the ideas we study make sense and hang together, rather than being a series of unconnected facts to remember. I have tutored 25+ clients over long periods of time with very good results, and feedback is listed below. I specialise in online tutoring which tends to work better for the complexity of subjects I teach, as more resources can be brought into play and I can create good-quality notes for students to refer back to as I go. Do get in touch to discuss in-person if you have a strong preference.

Please contact me, Dr John Williamson, on [email protected] or 07977421485. 

Cheers!

 

Feedback examples:

"I’m extremely grateful for all of your help with the PAT, so thank you so much!" - E

"I just wanted to let you know that I got my a-level results on Thursday. I ended up getting 3 A*s including an A* in physics. I just wanted to thank you for all the sessions as they really helped improve my physics ability." - J

"Very sad to be finishing tutorials with John but we have come to the end, he has been wonderful and we are very happy." 

"Thought John was so good with our older son that asked if John could tutor our younger son."

    • Why did you feel the need to post that? Have you actually read the rest of the thread?
    • He lived in my road, so I bumped into him quite often, but I knew him as Mick, not Mike. We originally met at the opening of The Actress. Crikey, how long ago that seems now. He had a fox in his window 🤣 Not a real one, obviously. I only found out that he had died because I hadn't seen him around for a while,  so I mentioned it  on our road WhatsApp group, and someone on there told me. He had been ill for some time, but he was just in the middle of what must have been extremely expensive private  dental treatment (a lot of implants) so I assume his death was sadly unexpected.
    • Not in the same position but are you able to access the physical meter to take your own readings ? You could do this as frequently as you wanted to. I think TW are rolling out smart meters that don’t need to be physically read by them, and perhaps that’s what you have. I think that TW will only change your monthly direct debit once every 6 months, when you get the official statement.
    • Has anyone else had a water meter fitted in the last couple of years but is not being billed on the actual consumption as measured by the meter. I ask because after our meter was fitted 18 months ago, we could see the actual meter readings on our online account. This was helpful in terms of monitoring the consumption down to a day to day basis. However after about 6 months, the meter readings were no longer published online. I recall earlier advice from TW that  we would have a 12 month "trial" period after which we could opt to switch to metered consumption or stay on the rate based on the rateable value of our house.  As there's only two of us in the house, I reckon our actual consumption is well below the RV based consumption rate so with a bit of cynicism I reckon TW has deliberately discontinued publishing the meter reading.  Had the readings continued to be published, then we could have made an informed decision on whether or not to move to metered billing. Is anyone else in a similar position?
