Sergio Soeiro Miranda IGCSE and A-LEVEL Mathematics, Physics
No reviews yet

I have 12 years of experience teaching CIE Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics in an European International School (Portugal), where I've also been the Head of Physics and the Head of Maths.
Before that I've taught in the UK (London area), USA (South Carolina), and Portugal (continental Portugal and Azores Islands).
Committed students usually reach A* grades with me, which allows them to go to their first choice on top world universities, which include the Imperial College, UCL, LSE, etc.
Many of these students already finished their degrees and were immediately hired by the industry for very high profile positions.
I base my lessons on students' prior knowledge and engage them with constant examples from real life and digital online resources. I know that organization, diversification and empathy are the three main engines propelling students' results, and these are attributes that all my students recognise in me.
I am also very fond of technology and I have experience using digital tools on online teaching. I love teaching with diagrams and I can't go online without a digital pen and/or a digital interactive whiteboard.
