About Me

I am a full-time private tutor and registered Dental surgeon with over 2000 hours of extensive experience tutoring in Chemistry and Biology at well-established independent tutoring agencies. I gained a first-class honours degree in Biological and Medicinal Chemistry from the University of Exeter graduating in the top 10% of my class. I then secured 4 interviews for graduate Dentistry from which I graduated with a 1st class honours degree in Dental surgery. I have helped countless individuals secure places at the most competitive universities focussing on admission tests, interview preparation (MMI) and academic scores. I have experience tutoring Chemistry at GCSE and A-Level and I am familiar with the exam boards OCR, AQA and Edexcel.

Shelly 4 Sep 24

Ben is the best tutor I have ever had lessons with! He has single handedly saved my chemistry A level. Very well structured lessons with great exam questions and preparation. I was really struggling with chemistry and was unsure if I was going to be able to understand the content but after lessons with Ben I gained more confidence and that reflected in my improved grades. Now I have started liking chemistry a lot more and I always enjoy attending these lessons.

Rochelle 21 Jan 24

We arranged some Tutor sessions with Dr Ben to prepare my daughter for Medicine MMI's. My daughters school was unable to help prepare her for applying to Medicine and we were out of our depth at home. Dr Bens help was invaluable. Thanks to his tutoring my daughter felt as prepared as she could have done in her interviews. She was calm, focused and confident and felt she did as well as she could.
My daughters schedule was a bit hectic as well and Dr Ben was incredibly flexible and accommodating.
We cannot thank him enough.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Richard 19 Aug 24

With Dr Ben’s help my daughter was able to get the chemistry grade she needed to go to her first choice university. He made sure lessons were interactive and enjoyable. He tailored his tuition to complement her college studies. As a parent I found his weekly lesson reports helped me to support my daughter between lessons. Thoroughly recommended.

Thank you Dr Ben.

Nidhi 22 Feb 25

Amazing!! I am a second time applicant to medicine and Ben was definitely key in helping me convert my interviews into offers. His teaching style is fantastic and he always gives feedback that is specific to my own strengths and weaknesses. When I started my interview practice, I was finding it difficult to articulate what I wanted to get across to the interviewers, but Ben helped me gain my confidence and taught me how to reflect on my experiences effectively. He is brilliant, friendly and goes above and beyond to help you even out of lesson if you have any questions. I would definitely recommend him to anyone hoping to get into medicine! Thank you Ben!

Laasya 2 May 23

Dr Ben helped a lot in boosting Laasya's confidence in AS chemistry. She was initially skeptical to even choose the subject, but now it became one of her favorite subjects and Dr Ben played a very important role in bringing this change. Thank-you Ben!

My experience with Ben was great! He helped me prepare for my dental school interview - he was very prepared for our session. He was also very helpful in answering any questions I had and he helped me construct my answers and gave me great ideas! I feel so much more confident about my interview now. He's really easy to chat to and made me feel really comfortable aswell!

Jill 1 Apr 22

Ben has been assisting my son with Chemistry and the lessons now are proving extremely beneficial. My son comes away from his lessons both motivated and confident as Ben helps him with some of the topics he finds a little more difficult. Ben is very encouraging and extremely professional and we will continue using him for the foreseeable. His lessons will definitely make the difference in ensuring my son gets the top grade in Chemistry.

Kuvira 27 Aug 23

Ben is an incredibly attentive and patient tutor. He is always prepared for lessons and gives clear and elaborate explanations which have helped me gain a good understanding of all sections of the ucat exam. Furthermore, he repeatedly went over topics that I did not understand and always provides comprehensive and detailed feedback. His lessons have been invaluable in helping me prepare for the ucat exam, I would definitely recommend him!
