About Dr. Vivek Agarwal
PhD Qualified Maths & Physics Tutor in Newcastle Upon Tyne
My Story
Hello, I'm Dr. Vivek Agarwal, and I've been passionate about teaching Maths and Physics for over 7 years. Based in Newcastle Upon Tyne, I specialise in helping GCSE and A-Level students aged 9-25 achieve their academic goals and develop a genuine love for these subjects.
With a doctorate (PhD) in Environmental Engineering and exceptional high school exam results (97% in Physics and 94% in Maths), I bring both academic excellence and real-world expertise to my tutoring sessions. My research background in remote sensing, geographic information systems, and programming allows me to connect mathematical and physical concepts to cutting-edge applications.
I believe that understanding fundamental concepts is the key to success. That's why I focus on helping students grasp the 'why' behind formulas and theories, rather than just memorising them. I link concepts to real-world situations and create engaging, memorable examples that make learning both effective and enjoyable.
With over 300 hours of online tutoring experience and a 100% success rate, I'm committed to helping every student I work with reach their full potential.
