About Philip
About you
What kind of experience do you have?
I have 13 years' tutoring experience, working with over 250 sixth-form students across West Kent and beyond. I specialise exclusively in A-Level Maths, Further Maths, and IB Diploma (both Higher and Standard Level). In recent years, I've supported around 20 IB students alongside my A-Level cohort.
My background as a management coach and business leader brings a professional, results-focused approach to every session. I've also served as a school governor and volunteered at three primary schools, giving me broad insight into how students learn and what education systems expect.
Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?
Yes — my DBS check is complete and up to date.
Tell me about some of your current students.
I work with a wide range of students, each with different goals and starting points:
High achievers aiming to secure A*/A grades and maximise university options
Steady improvers building consistency and exam confidence throughout the year
Students needing intensive pre-exam revision or last-minute grade recovery after disappointing mocks
Gap year students revising independently before starting university
Those who find school teaching unclear and need alternative explanations that make concepts click
Many students also get ahead of their school syllabus to reduce pressure later in the year.

What does a typical lesson involve?
Each session is tailored to the student's needs, but all follow a clear structure: we review progress, work through challenging concepts or exam-style questions, and set focused homework to consolidate learning.
I balance concept mastery with exam technique — because understanding alone isn't enough. Students learn how to decode questions, structure answers, manage time, and approach unfamiliar problems with confidence.
Lessons are available online (which I find most effective) or face-to-face in the Tonbridge area. Sessions are professional, supportive, and focused on measurable progress.
Which subject(s) do you teach?
A-Level Maths, Further Maths and IB Diploma Mathematics (Higher and Standard Level). I also support students preparing for university entry tests such as MAT, TMUA, and STEP.
Tell me about your qualifications.
I hold a 2:1 in Mathematics from the University of London and have over 30 years' experience as a business leader and coach, helping individuals and teams achieve beyond expectations. This professional background shapes my structured, goal-oriented tutoring style.
How much do you charge?
£50 per hour, with a travel charge for face-to-face lessons within a 10-minute radius of Tonbridge unless based at my home.

My son, who was initially against having a Tutor, is now really happy to have Phillip. He has given him self belief and encouragement. He keeps him one step ahead of the curriculum at School so maintaining his confidence. Phillips explanation are clear and easily understood. He gives him additional papers and goes the extra mile for him. We are hopeful of an excellent grade this summer.
Jack is so pleased with the help he has received so far. He really likes the approach you take which makes him find the way through questions whilst giving him helpful tips at the same time. He looks forward to the sessions. Many thanks
My daughter has recently started being tutored by Philip towards her igcse Maths and she is very happy with her sessions and choice of tutor. Philip is organised and approachable with a focused yet relaxed manner which she is responding to really well.
A total professional, from the first meeting it was obvious that he really knew what his stuff! He gave our daughter the confidence she needed - I would not hesitate to recommend Philip or to use him again.
Seems excellent from what we`ve seen so far. Pragmatic and with good engaging style, but also works our son appropriately hard. Nice balance.
We are delighted to have Philip's help with my son's maths and further maths A levels. My son has made great progress in his first few sessions, Philip has made them both challenging and fun and we have every confidence Philip will give him strong support in the run up to his exams. We would be delighted to recommend him.
Philip has greatly improved my confidence in maths due to his patience, clarity and emphasis on the fundamentals. We work through topics at a fast pace but will allocate more time to aspects of the syllabus if I am having problems. He is also very easy to get on with and has your best interests at heart. As I am a private candidate Philip helped me by providing my UCAS application reference, and thankfully, I received offers back from all five universities I applied to.
I can thoroughly recommend Philip. He has given my son confidence and brought him on greatly in a very short space of time. As well as excellent subject knowledge, Philip also understands the requirements of the different exam boards and has been excellent at providing tips on exam technique.
Philip, has been very easy to deal with. He is tutoring my daughter AS Further Maths, and she enjoys the way he challenges her thinking. She is studying the subject outside of School, and I have been impressed with how quickly she is moving through the curriculum with Phillips help. I can thoroughly recommend Phillip for anyone needing help with Further Maths.
Philip has been very reliable and is an excellent tutor for my daughter. She enjoys the lessons and is now much more confident in her abilities.
