Advert description
My name is Helena, and I'll be your math teacher. I studied mathematics at university, and I've also helped A-level students with Spanish as a classroom assistant for a year. I chose math because I love how it turns confusing problems into clear answers, and how patterns show up everywhere, especially in music. My passion for maths started with a teacher. She never made me feel silly for asking questions, and she always found another way to explain things until it finally made sense. That teacher showed me that math isn't reserved for a few naturally gifted people. It's something anyone can understand with the right support and a willingness to try. That changed how I saw the subject. I know math can feel intimidating. Many people have been told they're "not a math person," and I don't believe that for a second. My goal is to help you understand why things work, not just memorise steps, because understanding is what stays with you when the exam is over. You can expect me to arrive prepared, to be patient, and to give feedback that tells you what you did well and what to work on next, not just whether an answer was right.
