Having helped local families, family members and from personal experience, I have found that the best way to get better at maths is practise, for this reason, I would help go through practise questions with the pupil, breaking up the question into steps and showing them how to do each step and how to approach the question in an exam. Students can either bring me questions that they have for homework that they are stuck on, or if they are stuck on a whole topic, I can find questions with a variety of difficulty and we can work through them together so that they can answer any question on that topic in the future. However, if the pupil has an alternative way of working which they might find more beneficial, I am open to working in other ways. As I've said, I have worked with many local families and family members, and whilst I was at school I helped with maths clinics for younger years. I have done maths GCSE and A-Level and I know how frustrating it can be to struggle with maths questions however, this is why I am so willing to help and explain the questions/answers in depth, as I have been in your position not so long ago, therefore, I am more than able to help with any questions you might have.
I would like to tutor years 7 to year 11. Sessions can be as long as the student wants as long as it isn't over 2 hours.
