My Passion & How I Inspire

I often find that poor performance is due to a lack of understanding, not a lack of ability, and I am passionate about helping students achieve their true potential. I love to make complicated concepts easy to understand and I enjoy seeing a studentā€™s enthusiasm for mathematics grow with their understanding. Iā€™m also easy going so Iā€™ll always keep it relaxed and fun. I use a variety of resources depending on what is best for the individual, from past papers and textbooks to exercises and examples which are tailor made by me. I tutor because it is in my nature to nurture and thereā€™s nothing better than seeing a tutee succeed.

My Experience

I have been tutoring since my first year at university with organisations such as Team Up and Schools Plus, which aim to help educationally disadvantaged students across London. As a result of my efforts, I was invited to Buckingham Palace to receive an award for my contribution to youth social action from the Princeā€™s Trust and was given the opportunity to meet Prince Charles and David Cameron. I also took a module in ā€˜Communicating Mathematicsā€™ as a part of my degree, where I worked within the mathematics department of Westminster City School and helped teach classes and support individual students. I received a first for the module and greatly improved my understanding of how schools approach teaching mathematics. After graduating, I applied my mathematics knowledge by working as a government bond trader at Barclays Investment Bank.

In the past I have:

Tutored GCSE Mathematics (AQA, Edexcel)

Tutored A-Level Mathematics (AQA, OCR)
