11+ and GCSE maths tutoring - 1st class graduate with an award winning dissertation on maths teaching

Hi! I have recently graduated from the University of Sussex with a first class honours, and am looking to tutor maths for years 7-11s.

 

I know many people find maths very daunting, so my focus is on building confidence and deep understanding as opposed to teaching students how to memorise formulas.

 

My dissertation thesis was an evaluation of this approach to teaching mathematics amongst students aged 11-16, and won the SAGE publications award for highest thesis mark and outstanding application of statistical methods. It also found this to be the most effective method of teaching, so I am really excited to help students become more confident in and in turn effectively improve their maths skills.

 

Maths is, and has always been, my passion - I did maths, further maths, and statistics GCSEs, as well as maths A-level, and of course my dissertation thesis on maths teaching. My degree was in Psychology, so I also love helping people, and really want to help build children's confidence and deal with the stress of both school and exams.

 

Please get in touch via email if you are looking for a friendly, passionate maths tutor. My email address is [email protected]

    • Another recommendation for Niko who identified a leak in my lavatory and sorted it.  Helpful and good to deal with.
    • The SSRS app (Safer seas and rivers service), is worth downloading. It gives you real time updates on water safety / sewage discharges. It's pretty eye opening / alarming, how regularly areas are not safe, but reassuring when you do get the 'all clear'. 
    • The programme was brilliant and makes me wary now of sea paddling as so many areas affected. My daughter was working at a bank when privatisation of utility companies were floated. Bank advised its staff that only x number of shares could be purchased by individuals as Government rules at that time. She reported that certain people were seeking double and triple shares. Bank told her to ignore the guidelines as those customers had thousands of pounds in the bank. She was so disgusted at the banks attitude she handed in her notice, She decided that the financial world was too corrupt. Two degrees later - she now works in the NHS as an OT in mental health unit. 
    • Out of the corner of my eye I thought I saw a white (?cabbage white?) butterfly. It's awfully early, isn't it?
