Andrew is a professional tutor with over fifteen years teaching and tutoring experience. In 2005 he graduated from Leeds University with a BSc Physics, having achieved the second highest mark in the year. He received a PGCE (post graduate certificate in education) from Nottingham University in 2007. After which he completed three years teaching at the Brunts School in Mansfield, with particular success teaching GCSE and A-level. In 2011 he started tutoring part time while studying for a Masters in Nanoscience from the School of Chemistry at Nottingham University. He graduated in 2012 having achieved the highest mark in the history of the course.
Between 2012 and 2017 he worked on a PhD in Chemical Physics at the University of Nottingham. This PhD used X-ray based techniques to analyse molecules and nanostructures on surfaces. The primary goal was to investigate charge transfer between these nanostructures and various surfaces. Charge transfer is very important for solar cells and organic LEDs and this research leads to fundamental understanding of the physics behind these technologies. Part of this work used synchrotrons, which is an X-ray producing particle accelerator, at MAX-Lab IV in Lund, Sweden and Soleil in Paris. He hopes that this research will lead to developing new technologies for light flexible displays and lower cost generation of solar power.
