I achieved 9s at GCSE in Maths, English Language, and English Literature. I also took Maths and English at A-level, and achieved A*s. I have tutored GCSE students in these subjects in the past, and I taught English to students in Burkina Faso. I also currently volunteer with children aged 11-15 at a charity called the 'Ministry of Stories' to develop children's writing abilities. On a personal level, as someone who was relatively recently in senior school (I am in my early 20s), and with two younger brothers who are at GCSE and A-level respectively, I want to use my up-to-date knowledge of the education system to help young people do well! I adapt all lessons plans to the student’s individual needs. Upon first meeting a student/their parent, we discuss the aims they want to achieve within the number of agreed lessons; e.g. whether there is a particular topic they wish to focus on, or if they would like to practise the subject more broadly. I formulate a potential lesson plan which I email to the student/their parent. After receiving feedback and comments, we agree on a final plan together. This is the approach I used in past tutoring jobs, and I have found it to be very successful. Due to my past tutoring experience with GCSE students, I am familiar with the current GCSE curriculum for Maths and English, for the AQA, Edexcel, and OCR exam boards. I use a combination of textbooks, extra material issued by the exam board, and past papers to teach students. I mark all their work according to the marking criteria issued by the exam board. I am also happy to go over a student’s class notes with them, if they are struggling to understand what the teacher has said. According to the student/parent preferences, I can set homework, which I mark before lessons and explain to the student during the lesson. In my approach to Maths, I aim to ensure the student fully understands the rationale of each mathematical step, rather than merely memorising the solutions to answers without understanding the logic behind them. During English classes, I will discuss texts and practise exercises with students orally and mark their written work, Also, I use my own tasks to improve students’ writing and analysis. For example, if students are often getting ‘stuck’ when faced with a text for the first time, I practise a list of key ‘trigger questions’ with them. (For instance: what is your instinctive emotional response to this text? Are there any specific sentences you think trigger this reaction in you? From the list of classic techniques authors use, like similes, extended metaphors, hyperbole, and oxymorons, are any used here? What is their effect? Are any of the themes we have identified in the rest of the book here?) To improve the students' writing abilities, I use techniques like encouraging students to produce ‘essay plans’ for me during lessons. They bullet point their ideas within ten minutes, and then we mark them together. This improves students’ structure, as they can more easily see the overall cohesion of their argument than if they were to write it out in full. It also helps students practise thinking on their feet. These are just two examples of techniques I use. Like lesson plans, I adapt the technique to the student, depending on what works best for them.

Trusted teacher: Hello! I'm Hafsa, a dedicated and passionate tutor from East London, specialising in primary level mathematics. My enthusiasm for math is not just about solving problems but discovering the beauty and logic behind numbers. I love helping children unlock the mysteries of math, making it accessible and enjoyable. My aim is to instill a love for learning in my students, empowering them to approach challenges with confidence and curiosity. Experience and Qualifications I have extensive experience tutoring primary school students in various math topics, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, and introductory algebra. I believe that understanding the foundational concepts is crucial, and I am skilled at explaining these concepts in a clear and engaging manner. My previous tutoring roles have equipped me to handle different learning styles and paces, ensuring that each child receives the attention and support they need. I focus on teaching not just the 'how' but the 'why' behind mathematical operations, encouraging students to explore multiple methods for solving problems. This approach helps students find the best strategies that work for them, enhancing their problem-solving skills. Teaching Philosophy and Interaction My teaching philosophy revolves around creating a positive and supportive learning environment. I believe that patience and encouragement are key to helping students overcome their fears of math. I use interactive methods, including hands-on activities, visual aids, and real-life examples, to make abstract concepts more tangible. I enjoy seeing the moment when a student finally "gets it"—that spark of understanding is incredibly rewarding and drives my passion for teaching. I prioritize open communication with both students and parents, offering regular progress updates and being available for questions and concerns. My goal is to build a strong foundation in math that will not only help students succeed in their exams but also build confidence and critical thinking skills that will serve them in all areas of life. I specialize in teaching children aged 5-11, focusing on key math concepts that are crucial at the primary level. My classes cover: Basic Arithmetic: Mastering addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Fractions and Decimals: Understanding parts of a whole and their real-world applications. Introductory Algebra: Grasping the basics of equations and variables. Problem Solving: Learning different strategies to tackle math problems effectively. Exam Syllabus Expertise I am well-versed in the UK National Curriculum, particularly in preparing students for Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 I provide comprehensive coverage of the syllabus, including practice with past exam papers and problem-solving techniques. To start, I offer a friendly and engaging introductory session to assess your child's needs and set personalized learning goals. Whether your child needs help with homework, is preparing for exams, or wants to advance their understanding, I'm here to provide expert guidance and support. Let's make math a subject your child looks forward to!
