International online Maths, English and Science tutor with 10+ years’ experience supporting IB, GCSE/A-Level, AP/SAT and international curriculum learners.

About

I am an international online tutor with over 10 years of teaching and mentoring experience across Mathematics, English, Science and STEM-related subjects. My academic background is in Electronic and Electrical Engineering, which gives me a strong analytical and quantitative foundation for teaching Maths, Science and problem-solving subjects clearly.

I have taught learners from primary level to secondary and pre-university level, including students following IB, British GCSE/A-Level, American/AP-style and other international curricula. My students have come from different countries, including the UK, Hong Kong, the US and other international-school backgrounds. I have supported learners with schoolwork, homework, revision, exam-style practice, confidence-building and long-term academic improvement.

My teaching experience includes Mathematics, English, Science, Biology foundations, Academic English and Coding/ICT foundations. I am especially strong at breaking difficult ideas into simple steps, identifying learning gaps, creating structured practice, and helping students move from confusion to confidence. I also use digital tools such as online whiteboards, screen sharing, stylus/tablet writing, worked examples and guided practice to make online lessons clear and engaging.

Beyond teaching, I prepare personalised lesson plans, assignments, revision tasks, progress activities and parent updates. I take tutoring seriously because families trust tutors to guide students with patience, structure and measurable progress.

Teaching experience

More than 10 years of teaching experience.

Teaching methods

My teaching approach is structured, visual and student-centred. I begin by checking what the student already understands, then I identify the gaps stopping them from making progress. I teach with a digital pen, stylus/tablet, online whiteboard, screen sharing, worked examples, diagrams and guided practice so students can clearly see each step, not just hear explanations.

I use a simple but effective method: explain, model, practise, correct and review. For example, in Maths, I first break the method into small steps, model a worked example, then ask the student to try a similar question while I watch their reasoning. In English, I help students improve sentence structure, grammar, vocabulary and written expression through clear correction and guided rewriting. In Science, I use definitions, diagrams, examples and checking questions to make abstract ideas easier to understand.
