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]

    • But without knowing the cause of the repeated leaks, it's impossible to comment really. Poor repairs? Something wrong further up the system? Lack of maintenance?  When one of the leaks in our road recurred shortly after it had been repaired, a TW guy said to me that the repairers must have jumped too hard on the asphalt (?) laid above the point of the repair when they were getting it to settle (?) and broken the repair. I wasn't sure if he was joking or not 🤣
    • But in many cases the leaks are happening in the same places again and again, and every inch of pipe outside the Horniman on the South Circular must have been replaced at least 3 times in the last 15 years! Of course the infrastructure in some areas is old, but locally there's been quite a bit of replacement. To little effect it would seem. 
    • Thank you, Pugwash. That's really useful information. Do you know who was responsible for the locks and keys, or which council department? Could you PM me if you don't want to put someone's personal details on here?  It may save me having to speak to Monica. Thanks.
    • Does anybody know why? Trees aren't cut down for no reason. There must have been something wrong with it (I hope that was the reason). A child was recently killed and another one injured when a tree fell in a park (not in this area). It isn't always obvious from the outside when a tree is diseased or whatever, and I imagine the council would give safety considerations priority when deciding what to do, if there was any doubt at all.
