Louis

Louis graduated from the University of Oxford with an MChem in Chemistry. At Brighton College he achieved A*s in Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics, and in 2015 reached the final selection stage for the UK Chemistry Olympiad team.

Louis began teaching in his first year at university, planning and delivering STEM extension sessions at a school later named England’s Independent School of the Year, both to stretch the brightest students and to prepare them for Oxbridge interviews. He has since tutored one-to-one for three years, mainly GCSE and A-level Chemistry, Maths and Physics, and has taught Chemistry and Physics to 13- to 15-year-olds at an award-winning Oxford summer school.

Louis creates a relaxed, open environment where students feel confident to ask questions. Together they identify areas to improve; he breaks concepts into digestible chunks, revisits anything that remains unclear, then reinforces understanding with questions. Students consolidate between sessions, and each new session starts by reassessing problem areas, building a deep, intuitive understanding.
