In person for SEN students only and Zoom (online, recommended) sessions for everybody else. I'm perfectly set up for remote sessions with two cameras, two screens and large bandwidth Internet connection. Screen interaction with students makes the session so much more effective. All online sessions flat fee £27 per session (nominally 50 minutes but usually lasts longer). I do a limited amount of free sessions for students with severe disabilities or families with very low income. Experienced, qualified professional with excellent tuition skills in Mathematics. Very good interpersonal and relationship skills and a good sense of humour. Dedicated and enthusiastic. Achieving high success rates on a regular basis. Gentle but firm support to younger students at KS1 or KS2. Great help offered if you are at low and very low GCSE Foundation level. Great support for GCSE Higher Tiers and A levels Mathematics. Training for Entrance exams: 11+, 13+, SET. Old style and new style 9-1 Math GCSE and IGCSE. Cambridge style IGCSE. Functional Skills Maths. Trained in dealing with Special Needs students. Above all, most of my students grow CONFIDENT in themselves !
I would like my students to understand the logic behind mathematical applications and not just memorise the mechanics of solving exercises. I aim to make mathematics something interesting, intriguing, useful, challenging and fun. I aim to enable the students to develop a useful tool for them to use throughout their life. My lessons are planned and structured based on the key stage requirements. They usually start with discussing the homework from a previous session. This may be followed by an introduction of a new topic and new technique, I may use examples from life, hand sketches, multimedia, etc...I then present the student with typical exercises, some worked out already and explain the steps. Student then works alone on a few exercises. The lessons usually end with checking and discussing the student's work, obtaining feedback, a review a important items to remember, lessons learnt and assigning homework.
I keep a weekly progress sheet for each student to monitor progress and proficiency.
