Hi! I'm a patient and supportive GCSE Maths tutor who understands the challenges of learning maths. As a former GCSE student, I break down complex concepts into simple, easy-to-understand terms, helping students feel more confident and capable. My goal is to make maths less intimidating and more approachable.

Lesson Format:

My lessons are structured as engaging discussions rather than slideshow-style lectures. Each session follows a dynamic approach:

- Concept Exploration – We discuss new topics interactively, ensuring understanding from the ground up.
- Problem-Solving Together – We work through practice questions as a team, step by step.
- Independent Practice & Feedback – I encourage students to try problems on their own, providing guidance and corrections.
- Homework Assignments – I set practice questions to reinforce learning and check understanding.
- Regular Testing – I conduct frequent mini-tests to track progress and build exam confidence.

Lesson Dynamics

- A relaxed and discussion-based approach to learning.
- Focus on overcoming maths anxiety and boosting confidence.
- Encouragement and praise to keep students motivated.
- Tailored lessons to help students achieve their desired grade.

My Experience

I have been mentoring students for about a year, working with Year 11s weekly and supporting high-attaining Year 7 students to aim for Grade 9 by Year 11. Tutoring is my way of making a difference in a student’s education, showing them that maths isn’t as hard as it seems!
