For the last 14 years I have been working with young people at schools, colleges and training centres as a classroom teacher or one-to-one tutor. I was teaching wide range of students with different age (7 - 18 years old and adults) and abilities (top sets, bottom sets SEN). I was helping them to improve their grades/level and confidence in Maths. I also prepared students for their GCSE (Foundation and Higher).

Prior to entering the teaching profession I worked as a Teaching Assistant in EAL Department (English as a Additional Language) helping students to improve their reading and writing skills.

Previously I have been working in Further Education, teaching Functional Skills Maths. I was helping young people (16-24 years old) and adults to pass Maths exam and complete Apprenticeship programme.

Recently I was tutoring primary and secondary students on a one-to-one basis and I enjoyed it very much. In my opinion 1-2-1 tuition is a rewarding alternative to the classroom teaching. It enables teachers to focus on individual student and his/her needs. It improves students` confidence and helps them to make progress and gives satisfaction to the teacher - it enables us to make a real difference. This is why I teach on one-to-one basis.

I am very patient person and I always try to identify strengths and areas of weakness and help students to improve it. I work with my tutees at their individual pace and help them achieve their targets. My lessons are conducted in a nice atmosphere, preferably online at the moment, however I can consider tuition at student`s home in the future if it`s not too far from my home.
