Expert Maths Tuition - any age, any level

I can certainly help increase your confidence and ability in Mathematics. You'll find I am a very experienced tutor, and one who has tutored pupils across the entire abilities spectrum. At the age of 10, I was awarded a 7-year scholarship to Loughborough Grammar School and went on to study Mathematics at Keele University and then at Oxford University. I have been teaching and tutoring for over 40 years now, with an excellent rate of success and glowing references from literally scores of past pupils. I have a very strong Mathematical background and have accumulated a wealth of knowledge, experience and resources over this time. I have a proven track record and am committed to helping children reach their potential. Maths is a subject I love and have a knack for explaining concepts slowly and carefully so the student grasps each topic. I like to “push” a student to think about their Maths and to bring out the best in them. My speciality is setting challenging questions to make pupils think about their Maths. I also show students how best to lay Maths out and how best to answer exam questions. I have taught Edexcel A Level for over 35 years now and am an approved tutor for an exam centre. I also tutor GCSE and A Level for a correspondence school and for The Open University. I have written Maths 11+ and 13+ papers, as well as the following guides for various websites : 10 tips for tackling a Maths exam, Exam Techniques, Exam Tips for GCSE, How To Do Well In Mathematics, How to Study & Revise and How To Write Mathematics. One underlying factor for my success lies in my ability to change my teaching style according to each students requirements and my ability to explain concepts clearly and with patience. I guide my students towards them reaching a correct solution through a series of well-placed questions and, where appropriate, show them efficient ways of reaching a solution. I offer both in person and online lessons.
