I graduated from the University of Birmingham in 2009 after completing BSc (Hons) Mathematics and Sports Science. Following this I completed a PGCE Secondary Mathematics in 2010.
I have since taught Maths for over 8 years in a secondary school (Key stage 3, GCSE and A level) and 2 years in a Sixth Form Centre. I have also been tutoring students individually for the past 6 years.
I have gained a huge amount of experience teaching students with a range of abilities and have enabled them to reach their full potential. I have recently left the classroom to tutor full-time enabling me to now have day time availability.#/k#
As an experienced teacher I'm extremely familiar with the new curriculum and what is expected of students. My aim is to deepen students knowledge of topics so they have a greater understanding which will result in links being created within maths. I am an experienced examiner for Edexcel and this has enabled me to have accurate expectations of what is required in a students examination. I will pass this knowledge on to my students to best prepare them for their exams.
During my lessons you can expect worked examples modelled at the students pace, highlighting important points. I am friendly and patient and I encourage questioning throughout the lessons. After ensuring the student is confident I would provide some work for them to complete which we would review together. I will be looking to identify misconceptions during the lesson and the work we complete will be aimed at addressing these. Following the lesson, if requested, I can provide additional tasks for further independent practice which can be checked in the following lesson.
I provide a free 20 minute consultation to every new student where we can discuss your needs. Using this information I will tailor each session to you. Using a variety of methods such as breaking a question down into managable steps, model solutions and exam question practice, I can improve your subject knowledge, exam technique and your overall confidence in maths.
