Approach

My main aim when tutoring is to instill confidence and self esteem in my students. They often feel they cannot do maths and are rubbish at it,. I don't believe this is true and feel they have probably had poor tutoring in the past or a poor experience in education. I aim to correct that and support my students in becoming proficient in maths. I believe in finding different ways in which to deliver topics until my students fully understand what is required. I have a vast array of resources and materials to ensure that lessons are interesting and engaging.

Experience

I have been a teacher for over ten years now. I have taught in two countries and in various educational establishments from mainstream schools, Young offenders institutes and mostly in Further Education, I have taught various age groups from high school, post 16 to adult education. My experience of teaching has encompassed people from a variety of socio-economic backgrounds including job centre plus students. I have taught GCSE maths for four years now and have considerable success in achievement. Last year 30% of my post sixteen students achieved a grade C and my adult classes had an achievement rate of 60% for grade C.
