Maths Tutor helping students master their mathematics questions
Advert description
I have a Bachelor of Commerce Degree (Accounting) including the finance of money. Mathematics runs in our family - my mother was a mathematics teacher and she passed her knowledge of the subject on to me. She helped me get over my phobias regarding mathematics.
I understand the ins and outs of mathematics questions and like to show students the easy way of answering questions. This I gained from a very special teacher that I had in high school. He would mark my paper and if I erred in my solution, he would mark it with a large MM where MM = Mathematical Monstrosity!!
Be it elementary Mathematics Questions, Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry or Calculus I work through set problems to get the correct answers.
I show students how to be systematic in their approach to the subject of Mathematics and ensure they understand the principles rather than following rote methods that fail every time.
I also understand the mathematics of finance - including simple interest and compound interest. I have knowledge of shares and annuities.
I get on well using ZOOM and ensure other students follow my setting out of solutions as this is basic for their understanding. I identify the stragglers and give them more time so that they can get over their weaknesses. I believe that a student who works on their weaknesses can turn their weaknesses into strengths.
I enjoy my work as a mathematics tutor
