The format of my lessons vary depending on the student’s needs and learning style. I believe adapting my approach enhances the student’s engagement and understanding during lessons. For any given topic, I often start with asking the student questions to better understand the difficulties they’re facing and work backwards step-by-step with examples to help them understand the topic. I encourage student to ask any questions they have and will work through examples with them before getting them to attempt questions on their own. With more difficult topics, I like to start with easier questions and progressing towards more multi-step problem solving questions. I create all my own presentations, worksheets and materials and encourage students to interact during lessons as much as possible. For older students (GCSEs and A Levels), I supply a lot of helpful resources such as past exam paper questions organised by topic (dating back to 2006) to really nail exam techniques and pattern recognition. For younger students (under 8’s), I try and make lessons as interactive and fun as possible by using interests they have as examples (eg sports or food) as I feel this is most effective for their understanding and interest of maths! My lessons tend to be an hour/90 minutes depending on the student with most students having lessons once/twice a week but I make space for students with upcoming exams to increase this to 3/4 lessons. Ultimately, I’m an enthusiastic mathematician with a passion for teaching so do get in touch if interested!
