Be it exam preparation or improving your child's general competence at Maths, contact me to arrange a remote meeting to discuss our goals and see how I can help your son or daughter to achieve their full potential.
Our consultation will also enable us to get a good idea of your child's ability and way of learning, so that if you decide to continue, we can hit the ground running.
How it works?
A remote lesson
Our online Maths lessons are interactive and tailored to provide effective support for your child's learning. Here's how a typical session works:
- We begin with a live video call via Skype, where I share my screen to guide them through the lesson.
- Using my iPad, I produce detailed, step-by-step solutions that students can follow in real time.
- Students practice similar problems and share their work by sending pictures through Skype using their phones. I then display their solutions, assess their work on my iPad, and provide immediate feedback.
- Together, we discuss their solutions, identify any mistakes, explore alternative approaches, and find the best way to present their answers.
This interactive approach helps students build mental maps of solution paths, deepens their understanding, and reinforces key techniques. Additional practice questions are always available if they wish to continue practising during independent study time.
Beyond academic progress, I strive to create a positive learning experience, making sure to seize every opportunity to make my students smile.
Ongoing support between lessons
To help students keep making progress between our sessions, I offer continuous support during their independent study time. If they run into difficult problems or can't identify a mistake in their work, they can easily send me pictures via Skype.
I'll reply with either a full worked solution or a hint to help them move forward. For those seeking extra practice, I provide access to an extensive collection of past exam questions, giving them plenty of material to work on and hone their skills.
With my experience in assessing exams, I also guide them in using the most effective resources, giving them an edge in their studies.
This ongoing support ensures my students can approach challenging material with confidence and independence.
Intensive exam preparation
As an Expert Examiner for Pearson, the parent company of EDEXCEL, I bring a deep understanding of the examination process directly to my tutoring.
Every year, I meticulously mark thousands of A-level scripts, gaining invaluable insights into what examiners look for in top-scoring answers. My expertise extends to GCSE and iGCSE, ensuring a well-rounded perspective on the examination process across different stages set by leading UK awarding bodies, including OCR and AQA.
This experience ensures that my students are not only well-prepared for their exams, but are also coached to understand and meet the precise criteria that lead to success.
