About William
I am an environmental professional and have studied science with an emphasis on biology and ecology at Duke University (bachelor’s degree), Yale University (master’s degree), and up to the PhD level at the University of Cambridge. I have a brother twelve years younger than me, and I enjoyed helping him with his homework before I left for university, and that early experience helped me realise how much I enjoy teaching. I have an international background, being both British and American and growing up mainly in Kenya, so I am comfortable working with people of different backgrounds and cultures. I am enthusiastic, approachable, and patient. I have a passion for helping children improve their confidence in school, to inspire a curious mindset, and to meet their individual goals. I have been teaching a number of students (mostly from KS2 to A-levels science and mathematics) to help them catch up and fill in knowledge gaps -- or even to get ahead in their studies -- during lockdown. I have experience teaching students up to the post-graduate level (masters’ students at Yale University in the USA), but I also have experience teaching students in primary school, secondary school, and at the undergraduate level. With my educational and professional background, I know how to communicate concepts in a straightforward way and how they can be applied in the real world. My philosophy in teaching is to encourage curiosity and to develop confidence in a student’s own abilities. My approach is to prepare students to break down the question at hand, identify what methods they need to answer the question, to scrutinise and answer the question as best they can, and lastly to check their own answers. This approach ensures that each student has a full understanding of the subject and the methods being used before moving on and building upon their growing knowledge base, and it allows for responsibility in a student’s own learning and growth. And it means that students are prepared for unfamiliar questions on exams. I want students to be at ease and enjoy themselves in our one-on-one interactions, so my lessons are low-pressure, and my students are set ambitious yet realistic goals. By helping students become more self-assured and see their own progress, they can have more confidence in their own abilities and see that they are capable of reaching their own goals.

William and I worked together when teaching at the University of Cambridge. William is an excellent teacher and communicator who is able to help students by focusing on their specific learning needs. He is creative and patient and treats his students like individuals, tailoring his approach to their needs.
He is punctual, hardworking and has high expectations for his students which motivates them rather than pushes them.View more recommendations
