Daphne Jane

I am a specialist Mathematics tutor, and have taught for the last fifteen years, having retrained as a Mathematics teacher, since gaining a First class Hons degree . I aim to increase a student's confidence in maths. I am lucky in that I have always thought of maths as just doing puzzles, and like to have a fun approach including many visuals. I am a strong believer that if you can 'see' the maths you will remember it.

Tutoring Experience

I have taught in various types of schools, at all secondary year levels. I am currently teaching IGCSE and A level maths with an online international college. I am an examiner for A level mathematics with CIE.

Tutoring Approach

I have a very practical yet sympathetic approach to tutoring, tailoring the speed and level to the individual.

I love maths and wish to pass my enthusiasm on - and believe that when people understand, then they are happy to do maths. I have had good feedback, quite a few 'lightbulb' moments, students saying 'oh - I really like algebra now !!', aswell as good exam results, and students regularly going from bottom to top of their class.
For exam preparation I use past papers from a huge resource of materials - from all exam boards. For GCSE, IGCSE and A level.

My teaching methods involve explaining simply with use of visuals the formulas and concepts needed for GCSE and A level mathematics.

I have a visual maths book published - 100%Proof! The Why of Maths available on amazon
which explains maths concepts and proofs of formulas all needed for school maths

My availability now is mainly online
