A Theoretical Physics graduate with High First-Class honours from Imperial College London, Nicolas helps high achievers reach their potential and gives under-performing students the confidence and tools to flourish.
Nicolas grew up in Paris and moved to London to study at Imperial College London, where he gained a BSc and MSci in Theoretical Physics with High First-Class honours and was awarded Associateship of the Royal College of Science. His research explored how alternative logic systems might help bridge quantum mechanics and relativity. Although a science specialist, he also has a strong background in English and verbal reasoning, scoring in the 99th percentile for Verbal Reasoning on the GRE.
Nicolas has offered private tuition since 2011 across all major exam boards, and taught maths, robotics and forensic science to students from around the world at Imperial College summer schools. Since graduating in 2014 he has tutored extensively in London and abroad on residential placements. He specialises in stretching high achievers whose schools cannot fully support them, and has a strong record with under-performing students too.
Nicolas believes real success comes from deep understanding of a subject and how it relates to the world. He pays close attention to mark schemes and builds a tailored exam strategy for each student. As a theatre director with a background in physics, he also draws links between the sciences and the arts to make a subject a student dislikes feel manageable.
