Maths graduate providing support to students of a range of ages

I am an experienced and dedicated tutor with a strong mathematics background and over 300 hours of tutoring experience, supporting students of various ages and abilities. As a Mathematics Mentor at a local school, I engaged younger students with concepts beyond the classroom curriculum.

I hold a First-Class BSc in Mathematics from the University of Exeter, where I developed skills in mathematical modeling, statistics, and data analysis. My work as an Accounts Assistant has strengthened my analytical and computer skills, especially in Microsoft Excel, which I use to enhance tutoring sessions.

In our first session, I spend time understanding each student’s learning style, goals, and areas needing support. I ask whether they prefer focusing on homework or exploring curriculum topics, tailoring each lesson to their preferences. If we work on homework, I guide them through the assignment, encouraging them to think critically rather than providing direct answers, building confidence and problem-solving skills.

For students who prefer topic-based lessons, I create interactive sessions focused on a chosen area, starting with their existing knowledge and working through examples, explanations, and practice problems. I ensure plenty of time for questions, making sure the student feels engaged throughout.

Each session ends with a brief review, and I ask if there are specific topics they want to cover next time, keeping lessons focused on their needs and promoting active participation in their learning.

If you’re looking for a patient and supportive tutor to make mathematics engaging and accessible, I’d be happy to support you on your learning journey.
