About Me
I taught for 4 years in Urban Title 1 Schools in the Southern USA. I now attend King's College of London in Educational Policy and Society. Teaching and working with children has always been my passion. I was named "Teacher of the Year" at the school I worked at in the United States and my class had the highest pass rate on the state standardized test in the school I taught at. I always put in 100% effort when teaching and believe that all children can succeed and do hard things. I am kind, patient, inclusive, and open- minded. Your child will feel happy, safe, comfortable, and confident in my tutoring sessions.

I truly think learning Spanish has to be enjoyable and challenging (positively) and my aim is to create a fun and positive learning environment in which you can really thrive, feel confident and tranquilo.

I like to approach my students to grammar structures and cultural comprehension of the language by a variety of methods and sources such as images, videos, interviews, audios, etc. and adjust exercises of reading, listening and conversation to topics related to their particular interests and personal motivations.

Just done your mock exams? Are you ready to pull your grades all the way up? Or maybe looking to secure your 'safe' grade? Look no further. As a full time Data Lead and Exams Officer at Conisborough College, I have a unique view of performance metrics, and the latest knowledge on GCSE exams. With a specialism in Maths, Further Maths, and Physics, my style of teaching is an expression of my experiences as a student and a tutor.
My past tutoring experiences range from teaching secondary school classrooms and a lot of work with 1-on-1's. While I have had State Schooling my successful early experiences with exams (SATS, GCSEs) set me up with a solid foundation and ideal to approach exams by myself and eventually find my area of expertise in everything Maths and Physics.
When it comes to exam preparation, my strategy is always textbook oriented. My principle in education has always been to know what I don't know and then deal with my not-knowing of that chapter/area.
I like to use what is known/understood as a warm up and get creative with it, probing the student's baselines and tactics.
The warm up also gives you the winning-feeling about the subject and this is a feeling that grows and brings clarity such that it guides me year in, year out to go and understand every chapter to answer every topical exam question, and it can for you too.
I offer in person, and online teaching and am willing to provide references on demand, but first let's have a video call to discuss your needs further!
Do you speak French?

Have you just passed your practice exams? Are you ready to boost your grades? Or perhaps you're just looking to secure your "safe" grade? Look no further.

As Data Lead and Exams Manager at Conisborough College, I have unique insight into performance metrics and the latest developments in GCSE exams. Specializing in Mathematics, Further Mathematics, and Physics, my teaching approach reflects my experiences as a student and tutor.

I have extensive teaching experience, both in classrooms in secondary schools and in individual tutoring sessions. Although I received a state education, my successful experiences with exams (SATS, GCSEs) gave me a solid foundation and an ideal method for approaching exams independently. This is how I was able to specialize in Mathematics and Physics.

When it comes to exam preparation, my strategy always relies on textbooks. My learning principle is simple: identify what I don't know, then address those gaps.

I like to start with what is already known and understood, using it as a warm-up. This allows me to assess the student's level and strategies, while making learning more dynamic and creative. This warm-up also gives you a sense of achievement, which strengthens over time and provides essential clarity. It's this approach that has allowed me, year after year, to assimilate each chapter and be able to answer each exam question. It can do the same for you.

I offer in-person and online classes and can provide references upon request. But first, let's discuss your needs over a video call!

Maths and science are among the most useful topics in the world today. And yet, rather frustratingly, these topics remain rather incomprehensible for many students (with a good majority finding them extremely difficult)

With my sessions I do my best to make both maths and science as engaging and enjoyable as possible. The main goal is not just to overload students with information but also to try to gain some insight into the both topics - hopefully students will come out of lessons much better at science and with an appreciation for how weird and wonderful the world truly is

I'm offering a structured programme that guides students through A level and GCSE science specifications, covering all subjects. My lessons are highly personalised, with an emphasis on cultivating a general enthusiasm and love for science and reaching exam technique proficiency. Active recall, interactive discussions, innovative revision methods, as well as occasional deep dives into some exciting, extra-curricular content, are all heavily featured in my courses, as the ultimate goal is to equip my tutees with the necessary skillset to not just work hard, but in an organised, time-efficient manner.

I specialise in teaching Mathematics at a Key Stage 2, SATs and Key Stage 3 level. I make sure to teach effectively without making the children feel as if they are to be bored or tired by the subject!
I myself have experienced and applied the best ways to learn as once being a child and then helping children to learn in the interactive way I was taught!

We will work on your understanding of the most important concepts by doing practice exercises. We will start with the easiest ones and we will gradually increase the difficulty as you progress. Additionally, we will do lots of past papers, especially if you want to prepare for a specific examination. We are going to keep track of your level and mark your improvements session by session.

During our sessions, we can focus on different areas of Maths according to your needs, from Algebra and Calculus to Statistics and Probability.
Additionally, we can work on exam taking techniques such as Time Management and how to practice effectively for an exam.
I am excited to tutor other people that want to learn Maths, because I get to share my passion for the subject while making a positive impact. To me, it is a very rewarding experience, because of the feeling of accomplishment to help others succeed.

We will structure our work based on the student’s request. If the goal is to improve school grades and gain a better understanding of the school curriculum in mathematics, we will review the topics covered in class during our lessons. We will focus on the areas that are most challenging and unclear. Throughout the lesson, we will go through typical tasks from the classroom.
If the student wants to improve their general understanding of mathematics, we will create a personalized lesson plan and follow it. The individualized plan will include topics of varying complexity and from different areas of mathematics.
