I have a Phd in Pure Mathematics from Warwick University.
I have a long experience of teaching mathematics on various levels from GCSE mathematics up to university level. I am currently the Mathemtics Subject Leader on the Warwick University Higher Education Foundation Programme . I teach mathematics on this programme. I also teach A level mathematics and A level Further Mathematics. I run a workshop preparing students to sit for AEA mathematics and STEP papers.
From 1999 to 2004 I was a member of the Mechanics Development Group of the MEI A level Mathematics Board whose task was to develop the mechanics syllabus and provide training for teachers teaching A level mathematics.

Tutoring Experience

(i)I taught mathematics at university level at Khartoum University and the UAE University. I also taught mathematics at Coventry University(part-time) in 2001/2002. I have been teaching at Stratford College since 1995. I have had experiences of private tuition for students doing A level Mathematics and for students in their final year of a mathematics degree.
(ii) In 2012-2013 I tutored two undergraduate students in their final year studying at UCL and Coventry University respectively. One passed her degree and the other obtained a First Class at Coventry.
(iii) In 2013, I privately taught a student A level Mathematics and Further A level Mathematics in one year.
The student went on to obtain A-star in both topics.

Tutoring Approach

1. Start by identifying the areas where a tutee needs help by an appropriately designed diagnostic assignment.
2. Focus on improving understanding of concepts in the areas highlighted by the diagnostic assignment.
3. Consolidate on the stronger points of the tutee.
4. Spend a substantial amount of the tuition time on improving the problem solving techniques of the tutee.
5. Improving the exam techniques and practicing for exam under exam conditions.
