I have taken and passed 11+ exams for multiple schools which is the current reason I go to a grammar school this gives me the experience and knowledge required to teach this subject. I focus on the topic of teaching maths as this is my strong point for 11+ tutoring and I can also relay tips and techniques for exams due to my personal experience.

As an online tutor, I connect to my students via video call from commonly used websites like zoom or whereby. If it is also comfortable with the student I also like to connect via phone call, this is to combat any technical difficulties with the video call so I can still contact and confer with my student via phone call. During the zoom call I use a multitude of methods to teach students like verbal discussion, video example and screen sharing PowerPoints of topics. I run a google classroom which I require students to join where I upload homework, past papers or resources for them to complete outside the lesson.

The structure of my actual teaching across the course is to start off with easing the student into the work and identifying weaknesses via different quizzing methods. Once these weaknesses have been established I focus on prioritising lessons on these topics and build an overall foundation of the knowledge. I do this in as many math topics as it is required till the understanding of the work is complete. Then I move onto the next stage of exam tips including time management, skills for answering questions and how to complete as many questions as possible during exams by employing techniques. This stage will also include past papers that I possibly upload on the google classroom which I mark and focus on weak points identified in these exams.
