I specialize in tutoring math and chemistry for school. I also offer preparation for entrance exams like SAT, GED, GRE and GMAT exams. My goal is to keep students challenged, but not overwhelmed. I assign homework after every lesson and provide periodic progress reports. A lot of custom study material can be provided if needed.

Overview:
I offer bespoke tutoring services to school pupils and individuals studying History, Politics, and English. With a background in History and experience in the teaching and media sectors, I provide a professional, insightful, and comprehensive service aimed at improving a client's understanding of a topic, their confidence within it, and targeting specific issues and skills as required.

I also provide advice on university selection and applications, building on experience as an applicant myself and coach for successful applicants to highly selective universities (including Oxford, St Andrews, and UCL).

Teaching methodology:
I believe that the best way to teach is to communicate, work out the student's needs with them, and proceed from there. We live in a diverse world, and it's important to reflect that diversity in teaching. I believe in using a variety of sources to help teach, ranging from films, to books, to music clips. This is particularly important in the context of clients with LS needs, as a focus on one kind of source can impact the pupil's experience,and hinder their success.

My lessons are based on a core Learning Objective, changing from lesson to lesson with the curriculum. Around that, there will be a series of case studies, examples, and anecdotes, with personalised support for exam answers if required. Half the battle with the humanities is ensuring that good ideas are communicated well- I seek to teach history and support the development of those communication skills to ensure that the pupil's ability is reflected.

english, math and physics are very vast subjects. sometimes its very easy but for kids its hard to memorize i am helping students to mesmerize and focus things in good way. Preparing maths lesson plans as per the grade levels. Explaining mathematical concepts in easy and understandable terms to the students. Using real-life examples to teach geometrical concepts. Developing students' interest in mathematics. Planning and creating teaching materials.

Hi! I`m a Biological Sciences student at the University of Edinburgh. I`m from England and am tutoring up to GCSE level sciences and Maths. I sat my A levels in Maths, Biology, Physics and Chemistry. I love teaching and helping students get the most out of themsleves and their studies, covering a wide wide range of problems, from learning content to practicing exam questions. I believe the most important part of learning is identifying and strengthening different weaknesses in the student's individual learning process, with the end goal of helping the student become self sufficient. If this sounds like a goal of yours, I will be able to help!

Economics is a crucial subject to understand the way world markets work. I am a masters student of economics and have a degree in English teaching. I also enjoy teaching business and maths. I like a class that really try their best and are not afraid to ask questions

Welcome to my GCSE Mathematics and Exam Prep Tutoring Class!
I designed this program to empower students with the essential skills and strategies needed to excel in their GCSE Mathematics examinations. Through a blend of comprehensive curriculum coverage, targeted problem-solving techniques, and personalized attention, my class plans to ensure that you build a strong foundation in mathematical concepts while mastering the art of exam technique.

I have 10 years unbroken experience teaching Maths and social sciences to high school students. Since greater proportion of the students population at the colleges are struggling in their performance in maths, I am passionate about teaching maths only for now so as to help as much maths students as possible. I make my first tutorial class to develop rapport with a prospective maths student and to enable me identify the areas they need improvement in their performance. The first half of my tuition starts with the fundamental principles of mathematics, showing the students various clues and hints to use in answering maths questions. Special reference is made to acceptable standard marking scheme so the student can understand each topic better and develop more affection for solving mathematical problems. At the second half of my teaching, several examples are worked together with the student, ensuring that the student is fully engaged in the exercises, assimilating the concepts and contributing meaningfully. At the end of the second half of the tutorial, a lot of exercises are given to students as take-home assignments.

The submitted assignments are reviewed, scored before the next appointment and corrections made one-to-one with the student next tutorial session. The topics covered are not limited to the core concentration like algebra, trigonometry, calculus, statistics to mention a few, they extend to elementary maths. If the gap in understanding a topic is much, elementary maths is revised with the student prior to teaching any of the core maths topics.

I am offering one-on-one tutoring for A-Level and GCSE students during my postgraduate studies. I have two years of experience tutoring children and teenagers mathematics, 3 A*s in A-Level Maths, Further Maths and Economics as well as an undergraduate degree in Economics from the University of Cambridge. I have plenty of flexibility, particularly Sunday through to Wednesday.

For new students, I tend to begin by going though the relevant curriculum and identifying strengths and weaknesses. After that, I will tailor our lessons appropriately to suit your needs and situation. For example, students earlier in their studies may benefit from reinforcing concepts learned in class, while exam strategy and worked solutions could be more productive close to the exam.

Problem solving is a key transferable life skill applicable to all fields, especially Mathematics.It is important students master these foundations which act as building blocks supporting further progression in learning. I aim to help students build vital confidence enabling them to tackle any unseen problem thrown at them.This is particularly important when it comes to high-pressure and time-constraint examinations.

In this class, I will go through topics students struggle with, providing alternative approaches I have personally learned over the years. I will also teach useful exam techniques so that students can enter examinations confident and well-prepared. Once a concept has been covered, we will go through additional questions to reinforce understanding of the topic.

I am friendly and approachable former student who has picked up several tips and tricks over the years, excited to these with younger students. Having worked with kids before, I am confident in my ability to relate to the frustrations of tackling hard new concepts, and break things down in legible ways. Ultimately, I am motivated to inspire an excitement for problem-solving, like my own, and foster kids’ enthusiasm in maths.
