Please send me any questions you would like me to go through in advance, so that I can write my own solutions and be ready to help you in our lesson. My preferred approach is to understand your problems and depending on the complexity of the topic will break down the questions into bite sized chunks, which I can then walk through with you. We can then talk it through together to ensure you have taken the key points onboard. I will then let you explain it back to me, so that you can build confidence in your own understanding of the material. If required, I can take for instance, exam questions and look to work through the model responses to identify and resolve any blockers that you might have.

I use whiteboards as a practical tool to demonstrate important principles which I think nicely mirrors a classroom setting but retaining the personal aspects of 1-2-1 online tutoring. I will normally be providing lessons from my university student accommodation. I can be quite flexible around times for sessions , but will be attending my own university lectures for my second year for the first two semesters each year.

As I have recently taken the subjects myself at A level, I can appreciate where the student might be finding issues and adapt my style accordingly.

Having won the School maths prize on several occasions including my final year, I used to help my peers understand some of the more complex topics for both GCSE and A level maths. I was also regularly successful in the UK maths challenges and qualified for the maths kangaroo so I am used to looking at maths problems in different ways. I also reached the final round of the UK Ritangle team maths challenge with some other students so I have experience solving tricky maths problems with a team.
