About Maria
I have been a school science/maths teacher and a science tutor for over 28 years! I invigilated exams and marked GCSE papers through COVID. I have a wealth of knowledge and experience with various exam boards including AQA and Edexcel. Throughout my career, I have worked with a wide range of students, both in school and through private tuition, and in after school clubs and charity groups where I have supported students to improve their understanding, confidence and examination performance.
My experience teaching Science, combined with many years of private tutoring, has enabled me to develop a clear understanding of the areas students commonly find difficult and the misconceptions that can prevent them from progressing. I am experienced in quickly identifying gaps in knowledge and adapting my teaching to explain challenging concepts in a way that makes sense to each individual student.
I support students across Key stage 3 and 4 for GCSE's / iGCSEs - whether it's higher or foundation Combined Science, or the Triple science route covering separate Biology, Chemistry and Physics.

I genuinely LOVE tutoring! There is nothing more rewarding to me than seeing a student have that all-important “lightbulb moment” — when something they have struggled to understand at school suddenly clicks, and they go from feeling unsure to answering questions with confidence and ease. Those moments are what make tutoring so worthwhile for me.
I believe that Science should be fun, engaging and memorable. My lessons often include humour, stories and the occasional silly tale to help students understand and, most importantly, remember what we have covered. I want my students to enjoy learning as well as make progress — and I am often told that they wish I were their school teacher!
Of course, having fun along the way is great - but the results are FANTASTIC! This year, all of my GCSE students achieved grades 7–9, and my only Foundation student achieved the top possible grade of 5,5. Year after year, I help students make significant progress, with an average improvement of around two grades.
However, tutoring is a partnership, and great results require commitment from the student too. I work closely with my students to encourage them to put in the necessary effort, while giving them the tools and confidence they need to succeed. This includes effective revision techniques, past-paper practice, exam-question support, exam technique and plenty of encouragement and motivation.
I am also a mum of two teenagers — one currently studying at Bristol University, while the other is applying to Oxford and Imperial College for the coming academic year. Through my experience with my own children and their friends, my school pupils and my private students, I believe I have become particularly good at listening to young people, understanding where they may be struggling and quickly spotting misconceptions.
My aim is always to make students feel comfortable asking questions, confident enough to make mistakes and motivated to keep improving. I combine high expectations with a friendly, supportive approach — and I love seeing the confidence and results that follow.

Maria was my tutor for science back when i was preparing for my GCSE’s in 2025 and we had weekly sessions. Maria was so patient with me and allowed me to take my time to learn without making me feel silly, she would adapt her teaching methods to give me the best understanding of the topic we were revising, as well as implementing stories and scenarios into the learning in order to help me understand even more. She was beyond helpful and helped me to achieve the grade that I had hoped for in science. Maria is a great tutor and perfect to have a laugh with, I would recommend her any day!!!
Maria was my tutor for GCSE sciences in Year 10 and Year 11. She really helped me understand and remember things, ultimately achieving a combined science grade of 8 7 when I was getting 5s and 6s. I'd definitely recommend her to struggling students!
Maria has helped me so much. She made science actually fun to learn.
My cousin recommended her to me because she said the same thing. I would learn from her in 1 hour what I would have spent a week or more learning at school. And she gave me exam questions at the end of the lessons so that I could practice answering the topic we'd just gone through in a way that would get me the most marks. And she would help with my maths too. Rearranging equations was always something I struggled with but now I understood that I could tackle physics questions. I know my science grades are better because of her. Thank you again Maria.Maria is an enthusiastic and very knowledgeable teacher with excellent teaching methods to engage our son. She is very friendly and explains the subject well so much so that our son comes out of lessons relaying fun facts about what he just learned. She achieved wonders with him - from being predicted a 7-6 in year 10 to actually getting an 8-8. We can't thank her enough.
Maria has been tutoring my daughter since November 2024, and she has been a fantastic teacher. She takes the time to understand my daughter’s needs and interests, making each lesson fun, engaging and tailored to her. Her ability to make science interesting and accessible has really helped my daughter develop a genuine curiosity and love for the subject. Maria is knowledgeable, patient and encouraging, and we would highly recommend her to any student looking for an inspiring science tutor!
Maria was my GSCE live saver !!!! I cannot thank this women enough she took me from a grade 4-4 in combined to 8-8. I was someone that really struggled with understanding and remembering content but Maria was able to simply even the most difficult topics making them easy and clear to understand. She gave me loads of past paper and ensured that I knew how to tackle what ever AQA threw at me in the exam. I’m so thankful I chose her as my tutor .
