About Me

Hi there!
I’m Rebeca, a 1st year undergraduate at UCL studying Chemistry MSci. With 3 years of tutoring experience, I’ve had the pleasure of helping students of all ages and abilities, including those with SEN. My enthusiasm for chemistry started during my GCSEs, and it has only grown since then, but my tutoring expertise spans a range of subjects, including english lit + lang, physics, biology, history and philosophy (A-Level). I have experience teaching a wide range of exam boards.I bring forth a motivated attitude about exploring concepts with diverse strategies to maximize understanding. I am skilled at adapting my teaching methods to meet individual needs, fostering an engaging and supportive learning environment. Known for my strong organisational skills, focus, and ability to simplify complex concepts, I am committed to helping students build confidence and achieve their academic goals.

My teaching style

Every student is unique, so I tailor my teaching to fit individual learning styles. My lessons typically begin with a review to address any misunderstandings, followed by a focused exploration of new concepts. I emphasize the importance of application, especially through exam questions, which help students become familiar with what to expect in exams. I provide worked examples to solidify understanding. As a firm supporter of spaced repetition, I found that when combined with exam questions, the student not only increases in confidence but there is also a clear improvement in grades.
To ensure retention, we end each session with a quick quiz or a discussion of any questions. Having done GCSE’s and A-Levels myself, I know how daunting and stressful exam season can be so I provide all my students with various tips and revision techniques that helped me achieve my targets. My goal is to help students not just improve their grades, but also gain confidence to tackle any challenge they encounter.

My past experience

I’ve been working as a private tutor for 3 years.
