Alex Rust

I am a BSc Economics student at the University of Warwick. Having achieved an A* in A level Maths (276/300) and an A* in Further Maths, I have a strong personal understanding of what the current exam boards look for. I also achieved a Grade 9 in both IGCSE Maths (194/200) and GCSE Further Maths (151/160), alongside receiving 11 grade 9's at GCSE and Gold awards in the Senior Maths Challenge.

My lessons focus on understanding core mathematical principles rather than memorisation. I help students break down complex calculus, algebraic proofs, and geometry into logical steps. A typical session lasts 60 to 90 minutes, starting with a targeted topic breakdown, followed by interactive problem-solving and systematic past-paper analysis to practise exam technique.

Drawing on my background mentoring and tutoring students in STEM, I excel at adapting my communication style to match your individual pace and learning goals. I focus on supporting GCSE and A-Level students of all starting abilities, ensuring our online sessions are tailored to build your confidence and help you master the syllabus.

My motivation for tutoring comes from a genuine desire to make challenging academic subjects accessible and engaging for others. Having recently navigated the rigorous GCSE and A-Level exam cycles myself, I understand the pressure students face and the specific habits required to succeed. My experience as a Senior Prefect, FT Student Advocate, and sports coach has taught me how to communicate effectively, build trust, and support others in reaching their goals. I want to share the study strategies and problem-solving techniques that helped me succeed, helping secondary and college students build the confidence they need to master their syllabus
