As a passionate and experienced tutor with a background in Chemistry and interdisciplinary research, I aim to make complex scientific concepts clear, relatable, and enjoyable. Whether you are struggling with the basics or preparing for advanced exams, I tailor my lessons to suit your learning style and pace.

I hold a PhD in Computational Material Science and have experience teaching at both school and university levels. Over the years, I have helped students not just improve their grades but also build confidence and genuine interest in science. My teaching is rooted in simplifying tough topics, strengthening core understanding, and developing problem-solving skills.

Every student learns differently—that’s why I offer a FREE first trial session to understand your needs. After that, lessons are just £20/hour, making quality education affordable and accessible.

Let’s work together to achieve your goals!

    Develop and adapt curriculum materials to meet the needs of students with different educational backgrounds.
    Develop and adapt curriculum materials to meet the needs of students with different educational backgrounds.
    Offer guidance on academic writing, problem-solving techniques, and effective study strategies.
  • Research Associate (Mar, 2023Present) at University of Surrey, UK
    As a research associate at the University Of Surrey, I am working on understanding the physicochemical interactions of hydrocolloids with solvents and the dispersion process at the atomistic scale. This will provide insights to avoid forming slowly dissolving aggregates, a major industrial challenge.
  • Postdoctoral scholar (Jan, 2022Jan, 2023) at Postdoctoral Researcher, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel
    As a post-doc in Dr. Tamar Stein’s group at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, I am working on understanding astrochemical reactions in ice environments. The formation of organic molecules in the interstellar medium is crucial to understanding the universe. To this end, ab initio molecular dynamic simulations is employed to model and study these astrochemical reactions.
