I myself struggled a lot with maths from years 7-9 until i underwent tuition and learnt the techniques that even now in university, I still apply with my studies! Going from 40% in tests to an incredible confidence boost of 80-90% in only a couple of short months allowed me enjoy maths and instead of it feeling like a chore, I instead looked forwards to my maths lessons in school!
I will use tried and tested methods that helped myself when i was struggling with maths and use my time to go through various questions using my RAG method (Red for hard questions that all students struggle with, Amber for moderate difficulty questions students often underestimate, Green for easy questions that show up a lot).
I have prepared worksheets detailing the different techniques for answering questions that students can get free of charge upon request and will guide them towards resources that are both helpful and an effective use of revision time.
My lessons will follow this structure:
- 1 star question based upon struggling topics/ current topic
- walkthrough of different methods/ how to approach the questions of this topic,
- set questions for the topic using RAG difficulty
- after completion of the questions, i will go though them and do any corrections necessary, taking my time to help my student understand any errors and most importantly how to avoid them in the future
If a student has any particular query with any questions outside of tuition time, I am more than happy to receive it and discuss during the next session :)
