Earth Science and Geology Tuition - One to One Bespoke Tuition by Arrangement - Ongoing This class will be delivered according to the requests of the parent in terms of what subjects will be covered and a mutually agreed timetable. The ongoing version allows for dates to be added and for the parent to pay-as-we-go. Please contact me for details. Class content can be anything on the Earth Science carriculum and the tutor specialises in Geology because he has a Geology BSc and an MSc in Geophysics. But the class sontent can cover any science subject as required. Main Subjects Covered Fossils, Faults and Folds in Sedimentary Rocks Earthquakes and the Structure of the Earth Volcanoes & Igneous Rocks Rocks and Minerals: Precious Gemstones & Metals Fossil Fuels & Renewable Energy Plate Tectonics & Metamorphic Rocks Earth Systems and Cycles How the Earth Formed and it's relation to other planets The Cycling of Energy The Cycling of Matter Heat and Energy Natural Resources Weathering and Soil Formation Agents of Erosion and Deposition Shaping Earth Surface Rivers and Ground Water Soil Conservation Earth Oceans and Atmosphere Ocean Floor and Resources The Movement of Ocean Water Characteristics of the Atmosphere Weather and Climate
Learning Goals
I aim to make the classes fun and engaging so that the student is more receptive to learning the pre agreed subject of the day.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
Some classes talks about Global Warming and Climate Change causing more frequent natural disasters. It also talks about mass extinctions including the possibility of humans causing one now (including ourselves) and has some drawn images of animals dying to become fossils. It is delivered in a upbeat manner with positive solutions (eg: switching to renewable energy), but the more sensative students may find these topics distressing.
