Tutoring Experience

I have several years of tutoring and classroom experience, supporting GCSE and A-Level students with Maths and Further Maths, as well as GCSE Chemistry and Physics. Alongside private tutoring, I have taught and supported secondary students, planned lessons, marked work and helped pupils prepare for assessments. I have also taught undergraduate Maths tutorials at UCL, which strengthened my ability to explain complex ideas clearly. I also support exam technique, revision and clearer reasoning skills.

Tutoring Approach

My lessons are focused, calm and practical. I usually begin by finding out where the student is getting stuck, then build the topic back up using clear examples and guided questions. I prefer students to understand why a method works rather than just memorising steps. For exam preparation, I use past-paper style practice, careful feedback and plenty of attention to working, notation and common mistakes. I also adapt each lesson so students feel supported, challenged and better prepared for exams.
