I am an experienced and calm teacher, who knows how to get the best out of students of all abilities. My lessons are usually aimed at those who finds Maths challenging, who need the extra motivation to improve, who sometimes lack confidence.

I tend to use a combination of Powerpoints and shared platforms such as Onenote to work with students. I like to be able to present concepts clearly, but I believe that slowly working through a process is important for student understanding, hence I use a writing tablet most of the time. Using a platform like Onenote also allows the student to respond in real-time and later look back at notes when needed.

I believe an essential aspect to both online and in class learning is consistently and effectively questioning students to assess their progress and engagements. For online classes, I often allow the student time to independently work without distraction, without support, for a few minutes at a time, to effectively challenge the student.

Although much of the learning is done during the time I spend with the student, most consolidation work should be done by the student in their own time. I believe that additional self-assessments skills are critical and would always encourage students to practice as much as possible independently.
