Anisa Khatun

My name is Anisa and I'm a Mathematics undergraduate studying at Durham University with a huge passion for teaching. Once an intimidated student who grimaced at the subject, I've learnt ways to approach mathematics that allow me to appreciate and enjoy it so much so that it became my main focus of study! Maths doesn't have to be the 'difficult subject' and I'm here to show you and your child that.

My journey in tutoring mathematics has been nothing short of diverse. As someone who wants to share the joy from problem solving and who relishes in seeing their students thrive, there has never been a point in my life where I haven't been involved in tutoring of some form. From the age of 16, through volunteering opportunities and work, I’ve tutored in all sorts of environments - from after school classes and targeted group work to online one-to-one tutoring. My plethora of experience can be viewed in my CV which you can request to see.

My teaching style centres around seamless integration between the classroom and tuition. A core belief of mine is that tutoring can only be as effective as it's organisation, so I go the extra mile to understand what is missing in students' education through communication with their Maths teachers. This has been a tried and proven fact and it guarantees that what students learn outside of school hours perfectly aligns with classroom teaching, which boosts progress by up to 5 months! Furthermore, I love to involve themes of encouragement and independent thinking by carefully crafting questions that allow students to arrive at their own conclusions; this preserves the learning of concepts to ensure they are well consolidated rather than memorised and repeated.

For your child to get a feel for my teaching style, please do book a trial session. Let’s get stuck in and see your child soar through school!
