Sabrina

I am a Secondary School Maths Teacher working in an Outstanding School in London. I have over 10 years teaching experience in the classroom and pursued teaching as a career after working as an Analyst in the City.
I am currently available for tuition online only on weekday evenings.

Tutoring Experience

For the first examination of new specification Maths GCSE (2017) 70% of my class achieved a Grade 8 or 9 (A/A**).
In 2019, 68% of my class achieved grades 7-9, with many more achieving above their target grade.
My P8 scores continue to be positive and children leave my classroom and lessons making progress and finding that maths accessible.
Over my career, I have taught all abilities and groups from Year 7-13.

Previously as a KS3 Maths Leader, I have led my department in securing the attainment and progress of KS3 students to ensure they are KS4 ready. This has allowed me to gain a comprehensive understanding of the needs and skills required to successfully access GCSE content.

More recently, I have worked as an EdExcel Examiner, the experience of this has allowed me to focus on the best technique to enable my students to secure the best possible grade.

Tutoring Approach

I believe all children have the potential to excel in Maths and shouldn't be determined by a target grade or what set they are in school.
I have taught middle set students who have gone onto to successfully achieve outstanding results at A Level Maths and Further Maths. A large part of this, I believe happens when children enjoy maths when they are able to access the content and see results.

I am able to provide bespoke lessons based on my experience as a teacher and can adapt lessons to suit the ability of your child. I am relatable and patient and love the work that I do!

I teach for understanding so children are able to link together different topics in maths and build a comprehensive knowledge bank. I believe it is important to supplement this learning with exam paper practice in order to apply the skills they are acquiring. I have access to excellent resources and therefore fully prepared for the new specification GCSE and A-Level.

I have worked with many of my students for a number of years and committed to seeing them through to their examination.
