‍Love for teaching : Ronan has a passion for teaching, understanding it to be a unique opportunity to positively transform students lives: How they think; What they think they're capable of achieving; How much confidence they have in themselves; How responsible they are; How well they do academically. A students' school years are crucially formative and Ronan delights in helping them make the most of them.

‍Teaching approach: Ronan's teaching approach is axiomatic, starting with simple foundational principles and systematically building towards advanced ones. This approach allows students to make consistent progress but also develops a justified self-confidence: Advanced problems become soluble because they are reducible to previously-solved constituents.

Such an approach is facilitated by the great lengths Ronan goes through when meticulously designing his syllabuses (Check out the 'content' section!). Over his years of study, Ronan has acquired an extensive body of knowledge in advanced topics in maths, physics and chemistry. Relying on his extensive teaching experience, Ronan has translated this knowledge into an amazing teaching approach that takes students from the beginnings of GCSEs to the Finals of A Levels.

But, whilst systematic, Ronan's dedicated to adapting his teaching to best suit the individual student. He has worked with a broad range of students, of differing abilities, circumstances and needs. Ronan has worked with numerous SEN students, including those with dyslexia and ADHD.

‍Academic background: Ronan has a broad range of academic interests but has always gravitated towards analytic disciplines. Attending local North London comprehensives, he achieved one of the top GCSEs in his year group -with A*s maths and science, and then A*A*A at A Level. His undergraduate journey started in Chemistry with Molecular Physics at Imperial Collage London, before he transitioned to England's 1st-ranked physics department [Acadmeic Ranking World Universities 2019] at Manchester. He recently graduated: Bsc Physics, first-class honours. 

He is currently applying for a masters, to study Applied Mathematics.

Testimonials

"Ronan brings so much personal attention and dedication in getting his students ’over the finish line’. He takes responsibility and proactively plans personalised lessons that motivate his students. From the disengaged student to the high achiever who needs a brush up Ronan is always equally engaged. He is very accomplished at selecting highly skilled and empathetic tutors in his team. This makes the Understanding Tutors a group capable of offering the breadth of subjects to meet many age groups leading up to GCSE and A-Levels as well as pre-uni personal statements. I would highly recommend him and his team." - OLÇAR, parent of A. (GCSE science & maths) & K. (A-Level Biology & Chemistry) 

"Ronan has been an incredible support to our son in his GCSE maths and chemistry journey.  He is a dynamic and engaging presence and through constant positivity and encouragement he has provided Noah with the time and space to work answers out for himself.  As a result has filled him with confidence which has transferred to the classroom, and ultimately to his test results.  I really don’t know where we’d be without him. - Amelia, parent of Noah (GCSE Maths & Chemistry) 

“consistent, yet flexible, friendly and very much on her level but mature in his approach … So much of learning and retaining information, and examination success is confidence. And that is what Ronan’s legacy has been ultimately. F. whose aim was to get a C in the sciences in fact achieved a top grade. Not that this is what learning is all about. But it is nevertheless a testament to his teaching.” - Cindy, parent of F. (GCSE Chemistry )

"We want to thank you, you have been a great teacher and inspiration to O., who as you know seams to learn in a slightly different way to many. You helped boost his confidence and as you point out learning the joy of learning, he hasn’t had many teachers in his school career who believed in and inspired him so this was a much welcome change." , "I know you will be missed by him, but so glad you both come away from this experience wiser and learned along the way.", "You are to be thanked, as you have had such a positive impact one his determination to want to do well in science. Thank you!!” , "“Hope you are well, O. did really well 6/6. Amazing for someone that was written off by the school. Thanks to you and his determination to prove them different, he did it. We are so proud. Thank you! “ - Annette, parent to O. (GCSE Physics & Chemistry)

“Ronan was hands down the best tutor I’ve ever had. He was on time, friendly and very patient with me. He explained everything very clearly and was able to quickly identify my mistakes and help me correct them. He is extremely good at breaking down very complex topics and making them much easier to understand. He is truly an amazing tutor and a very nice person to work with, I highly recommend him to anyone in need." -Reef (A-Level Maths)‍

"I GOT ONE OF THE TOP MARKS IN MY WHOLE YEAR IN MY CHEMISTRY EXAM" - V. (GCSE Chemistry student)

"S. came home from school really happy yesterday. he's been moved up a set in all of his science subjects!" -Judith, parent to S. (GCSE Chemistry & Physics)

"Hey Ronan... I got every last bit of marks I could've done... I definitely wouldn't have got anywhere near as far if it wasn't for your help so thank you so muhc for everything over these last 2 months or so, really, really appreciate it and wishing you all the best in the future."  B. (University Maths student)
