El H.

El earned her BSc in Biochemistry from the University of Wolverhampton. After setting her sights on becoming a teacher, she completed her PGCE in Secondary Sciences at the University of Reading during the height of the pandemic lockdowns. Due to remote schooling being at its peak, El quickly adapted and developed her skills as an online tutor.

While her degree is in biochemistry, El has had a particular passion for physics since taking it for her A Levels. El has worked with the Institute of Physics and Kings College to further her physics, and now works as the Head of Physics at a successful school in Hampshire. El has over 4 years of teaching experience and over 6 years of tutoring experience in all three science up to A level, with a track record of helping her students achieve good results.

When El isn’t teaching or tutoring, she’s kept busy by her range of animals including chickens, ducks and horses.

If you would like 1-2-1 tuition with El you can find her profile on our tuition platform.

How do your online GCSE Physics revision courses work?

Our online revision courses take place within Google Classroom, keeping everything organised in one convenient hub. From here, you’ll be able to access our bespoke course resources and join the live lessons which take place on Google Meet.

Students can interact with the teacher using their microphone or the chat feature.

All sessions are recorded. The lesson recordings are uploaded after each day, allowing you to watch them back for a recap whenever you like.

When will I receive the Google Classroom link for my online revision course?

You should receive your Google Classroom link via email the day before your course starts. Sometimes these emails go to the junk folder so check there before contacting us if you haven’t received it.

When will I receive my revision course handouts?

You will receive physical copies of the handouts 3-5 days before the start of your online course, as long as you book with us before the printing deadline. You can find the printing deadline in the course summary box on each booking page.

Please note: we can only send printed handouts to students in the UK. 

What if my exam board isn’t listed?

If you can’t see your exam board then we are afraid we aren’t running a course for it. However, this doesn’t mean that one of our courses won’t be useful for you. Contact us to see which course is more closely aligned with your exam board.
