Tutoring Experience

I am a trained and qualified teacher of mathematics, with over 9 years of teaching in different secondary schools in the UK. I am willing to tutor students in year 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11. Maths is a subject that I am passionate about and I always enjoy teaching my students maths. I am aware of the various learning styles as a teacher and I use these in lesson preparation. I have experience of teaching pupils with various needs. I have the ability to teach students with different learning abilities. I always have high expectations of my students in terms of their learning. I have taught Maths in different secondary schools in the UK. I usually carry out initial assessment before start with any of my students. The assessment are based on year groups KS3 & KS4 including GCSE grades (1-9). This will allow me to pin point any gaps or move students ahead of the school curriculum.
I start from topics the students are comfortable with and move gradually towards more complex areas as their confidence builds. I use various assessment for learning (AFL) skills to check the progress of my students.
I usually focus on exam-style or past paper questions in order to check, practise and perfect the student’s understanding and techniques. I also give a lot of emphasis to some of the less obvious but vital skills such as functional maths questions and the effective use of numbers and graphs.

Tutoring Approach

I offer teaching in preparation for exams, confidence building and general knowledge teaching at affordable rates. I usually carry out initial assessment before I start with any of my students. The assessments are based on year groups; KS3 & KS4 including GCSE grades (1-9). This will allow me to pin point any gaps or move students ahead of the school curriculum.

Each lesson is tailored to suit the individual need of the student in order to draw on students strengths and interests.
