A bit about Dr. Seddon

Physics: PhD (Doctor of Physics); MPhys (Master of Physics, 1st class) Teaching: PGCE (Postgraduate Certificate in Education); QTS (Qualified Teacher Status); UTQ (University Teaching Qualification) Experience: I have been teaching since 2003 and I am qualified to teach KS3 to KS5 and at BSc, MSc, and PhD levels (roughly, ages 11 - 25). I was previously a university professor and I now teach at an independent boarding school for girls (year 7 - 13). My philosophy is that Physics, along with Maths, is a way of thinking about the world around us. It requires logical reasoning and rational argumentation. I want you to *think* like a Physicist. I have experimented with many different teaching styles but I am a huge fan of project- and problem-based learning as well as self learn with steering from me. It depends on the subject. It depends on the student. It depends on the interaction. Everyone is different and a tailored approach is best. I have been tutoring since the final year of my MPhys degree, which I graduated in 2001. I began by helping out a neighbour's child with GCSE science. Then, as he progressed to A-level, I stayed with him but also joined a local tutoring agency too and picked up more students from the town. Jumping forwards many years, as a professor of physics at university I found myself again tutoring the neighbours but now in a different language! I am now back in the UK teaching at an independent boarding school for girls (year 7 - 13) and I am still tutoring. I love teaching! GCSE & IGCSE: AQA & EdExcel A-Level: AQA, EdExcel, & OCR
