About Me

Hello, my name is James and I could be your Physics tutor!

I have recently completed my teacher education (PGDE) at the University of Strathclyde and will be starting my first year of teaching in August this year. Throughout my placements, I have taught to National 4 and 5 level Physics at several good schools in South Lanarkshire and East Dunbartonshire.

My approach to teaching has always been that learning is easier if it's enjoyable.

Prior to teaching, I have 10 years experience working as an automotive engineer at Jaguar Land Rover where I worked on high voltage batteries (electric cars) as well as a range of other projects. I love to bring examples from the real world into my teaching to make it more interesting (and more than just cars, trust me!)

Beyond teaching, I enjoying a wide range of activities including playing squash, painting, stained glass, archery, golf, reading and exploring Scotland!

Education

Mechanical Engineering (MEng) - University of Warwick (2010)
PGDE (Secondary Education - Physics with Science) - University of Strathclyde (2022)
APM Project Management certified - let's get your learning planned effectively!
Six Sigma Green Belt - University of Bradford (2011) - let's find the challenge and put in a plan to resolve it!

Experience / Qualifications

PVG certified for working with young people.

10 years working at Jaguar Land Rover as an automotive engineer. During this time, I was also responsible for leading undergraduate and apprentice placements within my department.

1 year working on placement at schools in Scotland, running lessons from BGE up to National 5 level.
This tutoring session is designed to support S3 pupils working towards taking National 4 or 5 Physics in S4. For my tutees I use an initial session to understand your strengths, areas for development, goals and aspirations, challenges and any additional requirements for learning. We then agree a plan and review this as we go through the sessions to encourage successful learning. A little bit of support can go a long way to improving your confidence and achieving the grades you deserve. Together, we will identify the skills and knowledge you want to develop and agree the best way to do it. Send me a message and let me know how I can help you.

Home tutor for Foundation Course in Science and Maths for Primary, Secondary, and High School Students in Amsterdam
Welcome to my Foundation Course in Science and Maths, specially designed for primary, secondary, and high school students in Amsterdam. This course aims to build a strong foundation in these critical subjects, ensuring students excel academically and develop a genuine love for learning. My teaching approach is focused on making learning enjoyable and engaging. I incorporate interactive activities and hands-on experiments to bring Science and Maths concepts to life. By involving students in these dynamic learning experiences, I aim to transform abstract concepts into tangible understanding. Each session is thoughtfully designed to keep students interested and motivated, minimizing fatigue and maximizing retention. I believe in simplifying complex topics, breaking them down into easy-to-understand segments. This approach helps students grasp and retain challenging concepts with ease. Techniques such as mnemonic devices, visual aids, and real-life examples are integral to my method, ensuring that formulas and concepts are not just memorized, but truly understood. Regular assessments are conducted to track student progress and identify areas needing improvement. These tests also prepare students for their school exams, ultimately boosting their confidence. I understand the importance of keeping parents informed and involved in their child’s academic journey. That's why I provide weekly reports detailing their child’s progress, strengths, and areas for improvement. This continuous feedback loop ensures that parents are aware of their child’s development and can support their learning at home. Encouraging words and positive feedback are integral to my teaching method. I strive to build students' self-confidence and to instill a love for learning through positive reinforcement. Setting achievable goals for each student, I celebrate their successes and motivate them to strive for excellence. This goal-setting approach not only drives academic success but also fosters a sense of accomplishment and self-worth. As a tutor, my satisfaction comes from seeing my students excel and reach their full potential. My ultimate goal is to empower students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in Science and Maths. I am always available to support my students, offering additional help and resources as needed to ensure their success. I foster an open environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, no matter how simple they may seem. This curiosity drives deeper understanding and encourages a proactive approach to learning. By incorporating games, puzzles, and interesting activities, I ensure that learning remains fun and engaging, keeping students excited about the subjects. Join my Foundation Course in Science and Maths and watch your child develop a strong foundation, confidence, and a genuine love for these essential subjects. Let’s work together to achieve academic excellence and make learning a fun and rewarding experience. “Excel in Subjects, Soar in Confidence!”

The science of Hindhuism: Beyond the Known and Into the Infinite
My purpose here is to share the profound wisdom I’ve come to understand I was born into Hinduism, but as an atheist, I often questioned whether I should follow it or reject it. For a long time, I chose to defy it. Yet, over the years, as I explored and understood more, I began to see the depth of its wisdom. Behind the myths and rituals, I found layers of science, psychology, and philosophy. What once felt like blind tradition started revealing itself as profound knowledge about life, the cosmos, and human well-being. It truly blew my mind to see how something I once dismissed could transform into a source of awe and understanding. Below you will find a small snippet of its beauty: One such intriguing idea, passed down through generations, became a cornerstone of Indian culture. Thousands of years ago, a thought arose in the mind of one of the most selfless humans I can imagine: “God lives everywhere — even in a simple stone.” At first glance, it may seem strange, even naïve, to build an entire culture around such a belief. But look deeper — it wasn’t just mysticism. It was wisdom. Without such ideas, the selfish instincts of humans might have destroyed much of nature long ago. Take the great Banyan tree in my own backyard. If not for the belief that “God lives in all things,” that tree might have been cut down generations ago. And with it, countless childhood memories — mine, and thousands of others like me — would have been lost. This is why, in ancient times, temples were often built near old trees. Our ancestors, with their brilliant insight into human nature, understood a harsh truth: “We are our own worst enemy.” To counter this, they used faith itself as a strategy — channeling the idea of God to protect our co-dependents in nature and to preserve the ecological balance. It was never really the irregularly shaped stone that saved the Banyan tree — it was the faith embedded in our culture. If a single idea could protect entire ecosystems and prevent our own extinction, then that idea was undeniably powerful. So powerful that it etched itself into human memory, passing through generations like a genetic imprint of wisdom.
