Kathy
I have recently retired from my career in education, which included 12 years as Head of Maths in a selective, highly successful school.
Tutoring Experience
I am a very experienced teacher, having taught in secondary schools and sixth form colleges, in both the state and independent sectors. I am familiar with the requirements of courses for GCSE, IGCSE and A Level, including recent changes, and would also be happy to support those who need enhanced maths skills for university entrance requirements, such as STEP papers or other higher education entrance tests.
I am equally qualified to help those who find Maths difficult or bewildering and enjoyed a period as a personal tutor earlier in my career.
Tutoring Approach
My personal style is friendly and encouraging and my lessons will be structured to cater for the ability and aspirations of my tutee. I will teach any skills or new topics that are required and will identify gaps in understanding and areas which need consolidation. I will aim to boost confidence while increasing understanding.
