Teaching Experience

Lemuel is an experienced tutor specialising in Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics, from school admissions tests to Oxford and Cambridge admissions. He has most recently tutored undergraduate students at Christ Church, Oxford and A Level students preparing for the Chemistry Olympiad hosted by the Royal Society. 

Lemuel takes pride in his ability to deliver tailored tutoring with the aim of not only building students’ confidence in problem-solving and exam techniques, but also to spark intellectual curiosity above and beyond the regular curricula. Key to this is the engaging and personable approach he brings to his teaching. 

In addition to his teaching experience, Lemuel has also engaged in voluntary outreach work both through the university and in his own time to develop students’ appreciation for the interconnectedness and relevance of the sciences.

Extra-curricular interests

Outside of his academic pursuits Lemuel can mostly be found on the athletics track, having been a member of the Blues team for several years and serving as the most recent men’s captain (2024-2025). This experience has allowed him to take the sport more seriously, recently competing in the national league to varying success. Lemuel has also represented the university in rugby and football. 

Lemuel enjoys presenting his research to members of the wider scientific community travelling as far as the USA and Japan for conferences. These experiences of different cultures bring new flavours to his experiments in music and in the kitchen.
