About Me

Biography:

Fortunately the value of education was instilled in me from a very young age and I was lucky enough to receive the support needed to succeed in education. The Grammar school teaching I received allowed me to thrive and realise my abilities in the technical subjects. Developing a keen interest in science and buildings led me squarely towards Civil Engineering. Through my undergraduate study at Imperial College London I was able to hone my skills and interests (in programming, engineering design, philosophy) whilst also allowing me to appreciate the importance of effective teaching but also how it differed from average or less effective forms. It was during this time that I became more involved in tutoring, which is something that I hope to continue as I go onto my PhD. Being in an environment tailored towards research, academia and further learning I feel will provide me with even greater insight into teaching practises and effectively communicating knowledge.

Teaching Experience:

Having tutored for a number of years I have a wealth of experience tutoring a range of subjects to a broad spectrum of students. This has provided me with invaluable expertise in teaching across different modes (one-to-one, classrooms or through online portals) and in understanding the needs of specific students based on their background, previous learning experience and natural abilities. Having been exposed to a diverse range of teaching settings I am well equipped to deliver engaging and impactful lessons that rouse my students’ interest in their subjects, motivation to study and confidence in their outlook. My core subject specialities are the Maths and Sciences (including Computer Science) which exploit the technical and analytical skills I have developed through my studies. I am also capable of teaching, in a more foundational capacity, Philosophy and Economics since they are subjects I have taken a deep personal interest in over the years and enjoy engaging with.

As a result of my teaching, and studying, experience I like to think of learning as an exercise in structuring knowledge. Therefore the way I approach any new student is to gain a full appreciation of the student’s understanding of a subject and ensure that they have a good conceptual and knowledge base from which to build atop of. In this way teaching can move forward in a more effective manner as material is introduced in a way which resonates with the student’s learning style.

Online Experience:

Given the circumstances I have been adapting my teaching style to fit the online format and have found it to be an interesting exercise. It has uncovered to me new methods and strategies for providing effective learning experiences by leveraging the tools and functionality provided by technology.

An example of an instance where I was able to exploit the advantages of the online platform over in-person teaching to give impactful lessons was during a python summer camp I taught. Since it was the first time the students had worked with code I was eager to ensure that the lessons were deeply hands-on as to demystify the coding process to my students. Doing this through an online portal was advantageous since by being able to share my screen it reduced the friction which would've otherwise existed when trying to showing how to write, and explaining, code to a whole class at the same time.

Jake
Maths Tuition (Various Levels - KS1-KS4, 11+, A-Level)
I have just begun an MSc in Data Analytics and I am looking to tutor Maths not only to help support my studies but also to fulfil a long held desire of mine to help children learn Maths. I love Mathematics and have always had a desire to teach it and bring it alive to those either wanting to know more or to help those having difficulty bedding down some of the concepts. Having had some tutoring myself during my Physics A level I have first-hand experience seeing how much value the additional support of a Tutor can add to a student's existing classroom knowledge. From the perspective of a teacher / tutor - I have two younger half siblings that have had difficulty with Mathematics growing up but have always enjoyed sitting down and helping the grapple different topics they came across in various homework exercises. I find it hugely rewarding the moment you see concepts 'click' with those studying the topic. Although I have not formally worked in a tutoring capacity previously, I believe I possess a number of qualities which make me well suited to teaching Maths. My career path to date training to become an Actuary has seen me continue to use and develop my numeric knowledge, particular in the field of statistics. My roles in industry too have developed my communication. Working as an Investment Analyst in my first job particularly gave me the opportunity to improve explaining technical concepts to non-technical audiences as I would often have communicate complex Investment Strategy options to the trustees of pension schemes, many of whom would not have a numerical background. Lastly, I think my personality lends itself well to tutoring. Those familiar with any of the 'colour profiling' personality evaluation exercises available might recognise me as an 'Earth Green' type. To those not familiar, the dominant traits that best describe an Earth green are patience, supportive and considerate - all of which I hope I can leverage to help students overcome any difficulties they are having with the topic. With a bit of guidance around which areas of Maths you are looking to improve on I think I could really help bring alive the field of Maths for you. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Eman
Mathematics, Further Mathematics & Computer Science KS2, KS3, KS4
Hi, I'm Eman and I just finished studying A-Level Maths, Further Maths, Computer Science and AEA Mathematics from City and Islington College and I will be studying MEng Mathematical Computation at UCL from September 2021. Ever since first being taught maths and sciences I have had a passion for them and love learning more and being able to understand interesting topics. I achieved 14 A* grades at SSC ( Bangladesh's Secondary Completion Qualification, Homologous to GCSE), 9 in GCSE Mathematics, 7 in GCSE English Language, and D*D* in BTEC L2 Computing (Equivalent with 4A* in GCSE) therefore know what is required of students to succeed and have plenty of important revision tips that I want to pass on. I also studied the new A-level curriculum so have up-to-date subject knowledge. Often the maths and computer science feature concepts that are daunting and challenging to understand at first, but through considered and targeted explanations, repetition of crucial ideas (particularly by linking ideas across subjects, one of my favorite revision techniques at GCSE), and consolidation of ideas using past exam questions it is possible to gain a deep understanding that will serve you well through final year exams and beyond. Learning is a unique process and everybody has different ways of learning best, therefore I will aim to adapt tutorials to meet the needs of a particular student. I will always ensure that prior to the tutorial I know what topics the student wishes to cover so that I can prepare materials (e.g. source appropriate past exam questions) and consult the relevant exam board specification so that we cover everything they need to know - there will be no nasty surprises in the exam. A typical tutorial would have the following structure: A starter activity to recap what we covered in the previous week, helping the student to revise as we go along. An explanation of the key ideas we are covering, and a check of how much the student already knows. Then comes real learning! The majority of the lesson will be devoted to covering the necessary content at a pace and level appropriate to the student. Usually, I will verbally explain the topic in an informal conversation with the student before writing notes onto the board for them to copy down (that way they have something to refer back to later). Past exam paper questions as practice. And lastly, if appropriate, how these ideas link to other things they may have covered or are yet to cover. But most importantly, I aim to create a relaxed and fun environment for learning where the student can feel confident in their own abilities and will enjoy the learning process!

Private coding / programming lessons with python
Python is one of the best, if not the best, language to start learning programming. It is also one of the most widely used languages today, especially in cutting-edge areas such as machine learning. This popularity means that Python is constantly evolving. It offers a wide range of tools and libraries, which are free and very varied. As an aeronautical engineer, I like to share my knowledge and derive satisfaction from it by teaching and motivating others. I'm used to working with people of different ages. I believe in the importance of segmenting learning, visualizing progress, setting concrete goals and practicing regularly. Beyond these general principles, there is no magic rule or method. Some approaches work with some students but not with others. Adaptation to individual needs is therefore the main objective of private lessons. So I will do my best to find what motivates and helps my student.

Dhairya
GCSE and A-Level Mathematics taught by an Expert Graduate from Imperial College London
Do you or your children think why should the Mathematics even be studied? What if I told you, everything around you from AI to economics has hidden Mathematics behind it, even the device your are currently reading this on can only work because of Mathematics. Therefore, it becomes crucial that your child relates to seemingly abstract concepts and understands why it is important to study them. Given my real-life research experience and an advanced degree in applied mathematics, I can provide just that: real-world applicable examples of different mathematical concepts to keep the students engaged and interested in the subject matter. This practical approach not only enhances comprehension but also fosters a deeper appreciation for the relevance of mathematics in everyday life. For instance, a simple concept like of percentages can be explained by relating it to expenses and the pocket money. Even seemingly daunting topics like Trigonometry and Differential Equations become accessible and exciting when I would explain how they are applied in sustaining not one or two but four different trillion-dollar industries. Another example where students will be able to relate to with seemingly abstract concepts would be understanding the role of linear algebra in developing modern technology such as smartphones, GPS systems, and some firefighting equipment. I make mathematics relatable, enjoyable, and comprehensible by offering numerous examples that demonstrate its practical significance. Whether your aspirations lie in sports, science, or medicine, mathematics is an indispensable tool, and my aim is to make the learning experience enjoyable and rewarding for every student.

Programming is FUN! [Python - Programming fundamentals - Game Programming - OOP - Javascript - Algorithms]
My lessons are ideally for complete beginners to programming within the age range of 8-16. Programming can be a very creative and fun skill to learn. I focus on providing a solid understanding of the core programming concepts so that we can apply what we learn creatively to make interesting programs. I have my own content that covers fundamental computing concepts in an accessible way and I'm am working on more. I would be happy to provide general tutoring for Python or Javascript to help with revision or exams. I think the best and easiest way to learn a skill is to ensure that you enjoy doing it. This way of thinking guides how I tutor. Together, lets learn to code.
