My Summary
About Me
Hi there
My name is Dr Michael O I am a qualified secondary school teacher with 8 years teaching experience in the secondary school setting. I obtained my PGCE in Secondary school science and maths at the outstanding department of education at the University of Oxford.
I am very passionate about teaching and I am highly committed to ensuring that all students excel by breaking down barriers to learning hindering progress both face to face or via abba academy's amazing online teaching platform.
My aim is to ensure that all the students I teach become more confident in their approach to science and maths, become skilled problem solvers and also acquire the study skills that will see them in good stead during their GCSEs and beyond.
My other academic qualifications include a PhD in the medical sciences obtained at the University of Wales, a BSc in Medical Biochemistry and an MSc in Immunology obtained at the University of Birmingham. I am both a scientist and a teacher of science and one of my principle strengths is the ability to link all topics I teach to real life contexts.
I am an enthusiastic, approachable and patient tutor who enjoys making science easier and more comprehensible for A-level, GCSE and Key Stage 3 candidates who urgently need extra tuition in Chemistry, Biology, Maths or physics to boost their grades.
I enjoy delivering a problem based learning approach to tutoring particularly as educational research clearly shows that it is not IQ that determines how well students do in exams but rather exam practice, practice practice!!
I am motivated by helping students to excel in Maths and the sciences, and I am always very encouraged when students excel in subjects that they previously struggled in, there is no greater job satisfaction as a teacher.
If you are looking for a great science and mathematics tutoring lessons I look forward to hearing from you
Best wishes
Dr Michael O
