About Emma

I have been obsessed with Chemistry since my first lesson in Year 7 when I used a Bunsen burner for the first time. I am an expert in Chemistry (see awards below), but I am also an expert teacher and explainer. If you would like to be taught by someone who genuinely loves Chemistry and cares about their students, then look no further. Qualifications, prizes and awards: • 2001 Sixth Form (I won the Chemistry Prize and the Biology prize for highest scoring student in the school in Chemistry and Biology A Levels) • 2002 The University of St Andrews (I skipped the first year of study due to excellent A Level results) • 2002 The University of St Andrews (I won the Finlayson Book Prize [best student in second year chemistry], the Chemistry and Materials Class Medal and the Chemistry and Medicinal Chemistry Class Medal) • 2003 The University of St Andrews (I won the Elizabeth Soutar Prize [best student in third year chemistry]) • 2008 The University of Manchester: PhD in Chemistry (I won a sought-after Marie Curie Fellowship to study at the University of Florence for part of my PhD) • 2005 The University of St Andrews: MChem in Chemistry with External Placement First Class Honours (I won the Salters’ Graduate Prize [awarded to top five chemistry undergraduates in the UK], the BP Prize [best final year research project in inorganic chemistry], the Forrester Prize [best student in honours chemistry], the Gray Prize [best essay in chemistry] and the Irvine Jubilee Prize and Medal [best overall chemistry student]) • 2013 The University of Manchester: PGCE Secondary Science (I won the Withers Prize [best overall PGCE student from all subjects] and the Owens Prize [best PGCE student in science]) • 2019 Manchester Metropolitan University: MA in Education

I have 10+ years of teaching experience and I am a former Head of Chemistry and Assistant Director of Sixth Form. I have a PhD in Chemistry, an MChem in Chemistry, a PGCE in Secondary Science (Chemistry specialism), and an MA in Education. I have an outstanding teaching track record for teaching science to Years 7 – 13, but my specialism is A Level Chemistry. I am also an A Level Chemistry Examiner. I have helped many students with their UCAS applications, with a focus on STEM subjects, especially Medicine, Dentistry, and Veterinary Science. I graduated with a first-class honours MChem in Chemistry from the University of St Andrews (the number 1 university for Chemistry in UK league tables), and also won several prizes, including a prize for the “Best Overall Chemistry Student”. I then went on to win a Salters’ Graduate Prize, which is awarded to the top 5 chemistry students in the UK. During my PhD, I won an extremely sought-after Marie Curie Fellowship to further my research. During my PGCE, I won awards for the “Best Science Trainee Teacher” and the “Best Overall Trainee Teacher” (from all subjects). I have a friendly and approachable teaching style, and I tailor each tutorial to the individual student. For me, explanations are key to understanding the fundamentals of a topic, and I pride myself on being able to break down complicated topics and explain them clearly in a variety of ways. Practice is also vitally important, and in each lesson I model how to answer specific exam questions before giving the student an opportunity to practise. I also provide topic-specific exam questions with worked answers as homework after each lesson so that students can practise independently. In a typical lesson you can expect: • Short starter questions to review previous topics • Clear explanations of the lesson topic in bite-size chunks • Review questions after each new piece of information • Modelling of how to answer topic-specific exam questions • Time for the student to ask any further questions • Homework consisting of topic-specific exam questions with worked answers for students to complete independently
