About
Leo read Physics at The Queen's College, University of Oxford, graduating with a First Class BSc. He spent a year researching in experimental particle physics at CERN, publishing several papers in sensor physics, and is now in the second year of a PhD in High Energy Physics held jointly between University College London and Fermilab, the US national particle accelerator laboratory.
Leo co-founded Tao Education with his sister Emily.
As a tutor, Leo specialises in GCSE and A-Level Physics, Maths, and Further Maths. He has extensive experience coaching students for university admissions, with particular expertise in ESAT preparation and Oxbridge Physics interviews. His teaching approach is deeply conceptual, building from first principles rather than drilling technique, producing students who can think independently rather than simply recall.
What students say
“Leo tutored me for my GCSE Mock examinations, and drastically improved my science grades from 8-7-7 to 9-8-9! I found it very helpful and engaging, and would definitely recommend to those hoping to improve their grades!”
