Maths graduate with school tutoring experience teaches GCSE Maths in Battle and Hastings

I’m a Maths graduate from University of Sussex, based in Battle, East Sussex. I’ve tutored in two secondary schools (Hove Park and Varndean), supporting students one-to-one and in small groups and adapting how I explain things to suit each person. I’ve helped a struggling student finally understand algebra and stretched a high achiever further, and both needed patience and encouragement. I’ve also mentored colleagues, sharing approaches to explaining tricky topics.

I tutor GCSE Maths for students in Years 8–11, covering Foundation and Higher tier across Edexcel, AQA and OCR. Whether the goal is securing a grade 4 or pushing for a 7–9, I tailor every lesson to the student’s needs.

I believe understanding comes from explaining a topic in different ways until it clicks. Lessons are relaxed but focused, so students build both the knowledge and the confidence to walk into their exam ready.

We can work on specific areas of the syllabus (such as probability or geometry), past papers, problem sets, or tricky concepts that just haven’t landed yet. I always bring plenty of practice questions to stretch any topic, and in the run-up to mocks and final exams we focus on exam technique and timing.

Lessons are usually 60 minutes and happy to add more time if suitable.
