About me

Hello, I’m Nikola, a dedicated tutor with a passion for helping students excel in mathematics, physics and STEM. Iโ€™ve been tutoring since 2014, working with a wide range of students, from high school to university level. I hold a PhD in Theoretical Physics, yet I like to keep things as simple as possible.

Throughout my career, Iโ€™ve tutored students preparing for exams under various boards, including AQA, OCR, Cambridge, and Edexcel. My experience also includes teaching gifted students for competitions in physics and algorithms, as well as supporting students with learning difficulties like dyslexia. I pride myself on creating a personalized and engaging learning environment that meets the unique needs of each student.

Teaching style

My teaching style is centered on ensuring that students build a strong, intuitive understanding of core concepts, which allows them to tackle complex problems with confidence.

I use a graphical tablet to write and sketch during lessons, sharing my screen to create a dynamic, interactive experience. This approach, combined with the use of visual aids like diagrams and videos, helps to make challenging topics more accessible. After the lesson, student is provided with PDF file containing the lecture notes. Example screenshots of the lecture notes are shown below.

I also incorporate a variety of online resources, including digital textbooks and interactive websites, to enrich the learning process. For exam preparation, I provide tailored strategies to help students excel, focusing on time management, key principles, and reducing exam stress. I am well-versed in the requirements of AQA, OCR, Cambridge, and Edexcel exam boards, ensuring that my students are fully prepared for their specific exams.
