About

Struggling with a tricky topic, aiming for a grade, or trying to get into a course everyone said was a reach? Need supervision for a coursework project? Whatever stage you are at, I can support you to achieve your goals.

If you're studying for school exams, GCSE, IGCSE, Scottish Highers, International Baccalaureate or A Level, in computer science, chemistry, physics, maths or further maths, I'll work with you to get up to speed with the material. Together we'll sharpen your exam technique until it's robust and systematic, tackling problems methodically and setting your answers out in a way that gives examiners every reason to award you the marks. I'll train you in methods to check your own working and catch mistakes, and build a strategy that's bespoke to you, timing, question order, all of it.

If you're aiming higher and applying for a course that needs one of the bespoke maths exams, the UK Maths Challenge, MAT, STEP or the TMUA, I can help you prepare specifically for that. These exams need a completely different kind of preparation to normal schoolwork, and it's exactly the kind of thing I specialise in.

Struggling with a university module? Need more supervision and mentoring during your coursework or final year project? I can help, I've supported students across a number of technical degrees, maths, physics, engineering, robotics and biomedical sciences, including the coding and stats behind the write up, in Stata, R or Python (pandas, numpy, scipy). I can also help you with your dissertation or thesis. Get in touch if you need support at university.

A bit about me: I'm a dedicated one to one personal tutor, specialising in chemistry, physics and maths, with over a decade of teaching experience. I studied physics at university, hold a masters in physics and maths, and a PhD in applied maths. I'm a native English speaker and comfortable working with students of all ability levels.

Whatever level you're at, my aim is the same, get you actually understanding the material, not just getting through it.

I'm happy to discuss pricing depending on how many sessions type of sessions you want and how often, it varies a lot by situation. Your first session is 50% off, so it's a low risk way to see if we're a good fit.

Message me and let's get a trial session booked in.

Reviews from First Tutors

5.0 13 from First Tutors

Imported from Arthur's First Tutors profile before the site went dark. Shown separately from Tutorperch reviews — today they don't feed this tutor's Tutorperch rating or ranking.

How we verify these

Each imported review went through admin review. The tutor proved ownership of the First Tutors profile via one of two paths:

  • Photo match. The First Tutors avatar matched the tutor's identity-verified Tutorperch photo, confirmed by admin.
  • Cryptographic email check. The tutor uploaded an original First Tutors email (.eml). We verified the DKIM signature against First Tutors' signing keys and cross-checked the embedded tutor ID against the claimed profile.

The review text is the original reviewer's own words, quoted as-is. We verified the tutor's ownership of the profile, not the truth of what each individual reviewer wrote.

    Arthur is an exceptional tutor who not only undertook detailed preparation for his sessions with my undergraduate daughter, but provided tailored sessions on mathematical theories in autonomous robotics for her computer science degree. Arthur’s experience in helping students with dyslexia was evident in his varied and engaging teaching methods. My daughter cannot praise him highly enough.

    Arthur replied

    Thank you.

    Arthur has proved to be invaluable to our son in the intricacies of harder Maths questions and tactical approaches to questions. Alex looks forward to his lessons and seems to be thriving with them. Super-organised and plans in advance, the perfect antidote to teenager disorganisation. Huge thanks Arthur!

    Arthur replied

    Thank you Sarah!

    My son is in Y12, started late in the year tuition to boost his performance in further maths. Arthur is a diligent teacher, organized, and contributes to building knowledge and confidence. He is helping my son to excel and we are thankful for his contribution.

    Arthur replied

    Thank you for the kind feedback.

    I was struggling with a particular module at Masters level and Arthur prepared me very well for my final exam. I did not understand much at all initially but once I had a few lessons with Arthur, I started to understand the content much more easily especially with the way that Arthur taught the key concepts etc to me. I'd highly recommend Arthur, fantastic tutor.

    Arthur replied

    Thank you very much Shayan.

    Arthur is an amazing tutor, he has been teaching me ways to better tackle exam technique, and delivers the content in ways that anyone could find easy to grasp. He has helped me become more confident and efficient in physics and maths, and I am sure that his excellent teaching will result in great success for my A-levels.

    Arthur replied

    Thank you for your feedback.

    Arthur is engaging and manages to explain complex physics topics well, even remotely/on camera.

    Arthur replied

    Thank you for the positive feedback.

    My son is studying A level Physics and is midway through his second year. He has been seeing Arthur for around 3 months and rates Arthur very highly indeed. Arthur is great at explaining difficult concepts and pays particular attention to improving my son's exam technique. My son's work has certainly improved since seeing Arthur and he has displayed a great deal more enthusiasm for his studies. Arthur has also been extremely professional in all of my dealings with him. I thoroughly recommend Arthur as a tutor.

    Arthur replied

    Thank you Tony.

    We have had our first lesson and I am really impressed. Arthur was very engaging, no mean feat with a not particularly enthusiastic 14 year old. Arthur tested knowledge, taught clearly where this was lac and then tested to ensure the subject was properly understood. My son really enjoyed the lesson and I look forward to wor with Arthur in the run up to GCSEs.

    Arthur replied

    Thank you.

    Arthur is a very good tutor and explains the maths problems in a logical way. This has helped the student to link mathematical theorem to practical problems easily. He is able to combine maths with physics which helps to relate maths to real world modelling.

    Arthur replied

    Thank you so much for your feedback.

    Oct 2023 ·imported from First Tutors

    Arthur was a very helpful tutor, with clearly high level of subject knowledge, which he can effectively deliver and explain mathematical concepts to the less advanced practitioners of maths. The tutor session with Arthur was an excellent experience, and it also help to raise my confidence about my own subject knowledge. I can highly recommend Arthur for anyone who needs help with their maths knowledge.

    Arthur replied

    Thank you Dominika

    Arthur is a polite, friendly and Kempt gentleman. He is passionate and knowledgable about his subject and has a high amount of patience with me. I enjoy my sessions with him and he goes above and beyond to help out in my educational journey. You don’t get better!

    Arthur replied

    Thanks very much, I really appreciate the kind words.
