About Holly
I am a 4th year Astronomy and Physics Masters student at the University of Glasgow. I have teaching experience across a variety of situations, including martial arts and sports, but I'd love to share my knowledge and passion with school pupils sitting Higher Physics. Can also help (a little!) with some maths if needed. I have created and ran my own science lessons and experiments in primary schools in Glasgow voluntarily, and have a real passion for encouraging a genuine enjoyment of science.

I would be best suited to helping SQA National 5 or Higher Physics students, but would be willing to give some occasional lessons for Advanced Higher students too. My teaching philosophy is based on the individual student- everyone learns differently and in my years of university I have learned how to work with all types of learner. I'd like to take 15 minutes at the start of my first lesson with my students to get to know them, understand their learning style and their opinions towards physics. I like my lessons to feel casual, and would like them to be used as a chance for students to ask me "Why does this happen? Can you explain it?", "I'm having trouble understanding the maths here, why does it matter?". I want students to use my tutor times as a chance to really understand the things that don't quite click in their classes- testing and ensuring understanding of concepts in physics is half the battle, the maths is the other half!
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the tutor.
I've worked with Holly during WiSTEM workshop days which she's helped to organize and run. Holly is very patient when explaining concepts and really good at identifying and adapting to different people's learning styles. She is a really friendly person and her genuine passion for her subject shines throughout her teaching -- and it's lovely to see how her enthusiasm get passed onto the children she tutors!
Ms Hourston is an incredible person and tutor. I have known her for many years, and have great confidence in her ability to nurture and support any pupil. Holly not only takes great care in ensuring a pupil will understand their work, but also provides a friendly and trustworthy environment to study in. Holly has wonderful character, and is committed to the education of others.
I have worked alongside Holly delivering STEM workshops to primary and secondary aged pupils. Holly has created engaging workshops based around Physics and Astronomy. Holly explained the concepts required simply and at the perfect level for what was required whilst answering all questions with enthusiasm. I can say with confidence that Holly would be a trustworthy and worthwhile Physics tutor.
