Sam

I'm a Third Year Accounting and Finance Student at the University of the West of England. I was born in Newcastle, so that's my football team, but I moved to Cambridge when I was 4 and have grown up in Cambridge for most of my life. My job at home is a Punter, who guides people down the river giving lots of stories about Cambridge University and making a fool of myself for the sake of entertaining the customers. I've always enjoyed maths right from a young age, and when I was in year 3 I got called a 'Maths Wizard' by my teacher, which I'm still proud of to this day!
I want to share this love for maths with others, with the hope that it rubs off on them all too.

Tutoring Experience

I've spent a lot of time working with children: academically, through after school clubs and sports. Before university, I used to help my little brother with his maths homework and occasionally helped with his football club.
Since being at university in Bristol, I've done some voluntary work with an after school club that promotes healthy lifestyles through healthy eating and fun sports activites.

Tutoring Approach

My general approach is very calm and methodical, and I'm aware that every child is different, so I tailor each approach depending on the situation. During the first week, I'd assess for areas to focus on and in the following week's we'd go through the topics until your child felt more confident.
