About Me

Hiya, I'm Aidan and I'm passionate about teaching and tutoring! My favourite subject is Chemistry, which I have been studying since 2012 (masters, PhD, research and beyond!) I've taught 100s of students at University level, and supervised many PhD and masters students in higher education (University of Oxford, University of Bristol), granting me my FHEA (Fellowship of Higher Academy) [University Teaching] qualification. I have experience tutoring Chemistry at A level- equivalent and University level. Outside of Chemistry, I love geography (GeoGuessr!), sports, travelling and play the guitar!

Tutor Experience

I have over 7 years of teaching experience at University level Chemistry at the University of Oxford and University of Bristol. Alongside this, I have 2 years online tutoring experience at both University Level and A-Level/IB Chemistry. I can tutor you with any Chemistry exam board (AQA, Pearson Edexcel, OCR, and WJEC/Eduqas, IB, etc). I can also teach you any University level Organic Chemistry course as well!

Topic Expertise

Chemistry - all levels (GCSE, A-Level, IB, University Level). Especially passionate about Organic Chemistry.

Testimonials

Testimonial 1:
“Aidan has an excellent ability to make difficult chemistry concepts easier to understand. Rather than simply giving students answers, he encourages them to think carefully, work through problems independently and develop a stronger understanding of the subject. This was particularly helpful for Alan as he adjusted to the greater academic demands of undergraduate-level chemistry. What impressed us most was Aidan’s patience and commitment. He listened carefully to Alan’s questions, identified the areas in which he needed additional support and adjusted the lessons accordingly. His explanations were clear and well structured, and he always treated Alan with respect and encouragement. Aidan was also dependable and easy to communicate with. He approached each lesson professionally and showed genuine interest in Alan’s academic development. Alan became more confident when discussing chemistry topics and approaching challenging questions as a result of Aidan’s support. From our experience, Aidan is a knowledgeable, responsible and supportive tutor. I would be very happy to recommend him to students and families seeking high-quality chemistry tuition.”

Testimonial 2:
“During this period, Aidan supported Samuel across a wide range of chemistry topics. He consistently demonstrated strong subject knowledge and was able to explain challenging concepts in a clear, patient and accessible manner. He adapted his teaching carefully to Samuel’s individual learning needs and always ensured that Samuel fully understood a topic before moving on. Aidan was professional, reliable and well prepared for his lessons. He communicated appropriately with both Samuel and our family, and he created a positive and encouraging learning environment. Samuel felt comfortable asking questions and benefited greatly from Aidan’s calm, friendly and supportive approach. In addition to his academic ability, Aidan is a responsible, polite and trustworthy person. He showed genuine commitment to Samuel’s progress and took his tutoring responsibilities seriously throughout the time he worked with our family. Based on our experience, I would be very happy to recommend Aidan for a tutoring position. I believe he would be a valuable addition to any tutoring agency and would provide students with professional, thoughtful and effective academic support.

Testimonials (University Lecturing)
Seeing the fresh perspective of how Aidan illustrated concepts helped to energize my enthusiasm for the class – in fact this was the most enjoyable year of doing this I have had in over 10 years and thankfully Aidan is going to join me for these again in the 2025-2026 academic year. My own learning also benefited from introduction to new forms of explanation and knowledge from a practicing bench chemist –something I left behind 25 years ago.
