My lessons are designed to be clear, structured, and engaging, with the main goal of helping students develop confidence and a strong understanding of even the trickiest maths topics. Each session is carefully planned to ensure a balance between explanation, practice, and independent problem-solving, so that students not only learn new methods but also know how to apply them effectively in exams to get top marks.

I make use of PowerPoint presentations to introduce and explain key ideas in a visual and organised way. Where appropriate, I incorporate graphs, diagrams, and visual examples to illustrate mathematical concepts, making abstract ideas easier to grasp. After introducing a topic, I walk students through step-by-step worked examples, breaking down the process into manageable stages and encouraging questions to ensure full understanding.

Once students feel comfortable with the method, I provide them with practice questions to attempt independently, often under exam-style conditions. This approach not only reinforces their learning but also helps improve their exam technique—a crucial skill for achieving top marks. During these exercises, I give constructive feedback, highlight common pitfalls, and share strategies for working efficiently under timed conditions.

Above all, my lessons are centred on building confidence and resilience. Many students struggle with tricky areas in maths, but with patient guidance, clear explanations, and regular practice, they begin to see real progress. My aim is to ensure that by the end of each lesson, students feel more capable, more motivated, and better prepared to tackle future challenges in both GCSE and A Level Maths.
