Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Physics

A Cambridge Natural Sciences graduate with a Distinction and Gold Medal in Clinical Neuroscience from King’s College London, Charlotte has tutored Maths and the sciences since 2007.

Charlotte

Charlotte studied Natural Sciences at Girton College, University of Cambridge, taking modules in mathematics, chemistry, materials science, biochemistry, psychology, neurobiology and physiology, and was a Barbara Bodichon Scholar. She then completed a Master’s in Clinical Neuroscience at King’s College London with Distinction, winning the Gold Medal for the highest mark in her year, and went on to graduate-entry medicine at King’s.

Charlotte has tutored since 2007, covering GCSE and A-level Maths, Chemistry, Biology and Physics. During her gap year she worked as a cover supervisor at Simon Langton Girls’ Grammar School, teaching Key Stage 3, GCSE and A-level mathematics to classes of around 30, including a group of highly able students sitting AS mathematics a year early.

Charlotte believes students should grasp core concepts well enough to work out answers from first principles. She asks plenty of questions and guides students to reach answers themselves, which improves retention and gets them used to thinking aloud, a particularly valuable skill for Oxbridge interviews. She enjoys working with students over a longer period to build good study habits, but also offers intensive pre-exam support.
