Hi,

Let me tell you about myself!

In 2018 I attained a BSc (Hons) of Mathematics from University College Dublin, with higher second class honours.
In 2019 I was awarded a Scholarship to study 'PGCE with Mathematics' in King's College London.
I have taught Maths in two London secondary schools. My classes in both schools were keenly focused towards GCSE level.

Furthermore, for the past six years I have been providing private tutoring lessons to a wide variety of students. With these I have learned how to perfectly tailor my method of teaching to get the most out of whatever student is in front of me.

I will promise you that your child's grades will tremendously improve...and they may even begin to enjoy maths!


Warm Regards,
Mark

Hi, I'm currently a second-year student working towards BSc in Psychological and Behavioural Science at LSE. I've always been interested in Maths and as a student, I've attended many local and national competitions, often achieving a high place in rankings. In high school, I have taken Extended level Maths and achieved scores in the top 5% of Polish students who took the final exam. I can teach students preparing for the GCSE or A levels. I can also offer some advice on the university application process.

In my classes, I help students master their mathematics syllabus by reviewing their lectures through summaries and mind maps. Moreover, I adapt the teaching material to suit individual requirements, including interactive presentations and guided exercises. Furthermore, I introduce more advanced students to concepts beyond the school syllabus and harder problem sets to enable them to ace exams. As a result, my previous students reached the 90th percentile of their classes.

I consider myself to be an excellent tutor because of my ability to understand and work with children and teenagers. In fact, having both an older brother and a younger sister, I perfectly know how to deal with children and highschool students. Furthermore, having a sister with learning difficulties helped me develop innovative and interactive teaching methods that make my students more involved during my lessons. Finally, being a BSc Mathematics and Economics student at the LSE provided me with an advanced knowledge and expertise in the subjects that makes me stand out from the rest of teachers.

I am a UCL Biological Sciences student seeking to offer a highly personalised tutoring experience that caters to my students' needs. I currently teach from Year 7 upwards with a speciality in exam preparation. I teach Geography, RS, Physics, and English from Years 7-11, and Mathematics, Biology, and Chemistry from Years 7-13.

I aim to understand my tutees' unique concerns and explain concepts simply with many alternative approaches. As someone who has experienced obstacles to my own learning, I have a lot of empathy for students struggling with their learning, particularly those with learning differences and endeavour to develop an approach that works for them.

I was a strong student in secondary school (Queen’s College, London) achieving A*s and As (and equivalents) at GCSE and three As at A-Level in Biology, Chemistry, and Mathematics. Particularly of note, I received a 9 in GCSE Mathematics, 98% in GCSE Religious Studies, and was awarded a sixth-form academic scholarship.

I am an experienced tutor - I participated in a tutoring scheme in secondary school which allowed students from Year 7 to Year 12 to ask any questions they might be struggling with in any subject they wished. This allowed me to continue to engage with my GCSE content during my A-Level years and taught me how to listen to and understand the particular needs of each student at a given moment. I also tutored family and friends of family, allowing me to engage personally with my students and develop a specialised teaching approach.

I offer one hour and two hour sessions and am free on weekends, after 5pm, and whenever my university timetable permits. I am generally free at all times outside of university term time.

Interactive and engaging maths lessons aimed to improve students' scores using techniques such as spaced repetition and active recall. Having achieved A*s in A-level Maths & Further Maths and having been recognised as 'Best A-Level Maths Student in the year', I am committed to helping other students excel in maths too. I will plan lessons in a structured manner to ensure all content is covered and mastered in time for any exams. To increase lesson interactivity whilst teaching online, I intend to use a 'Jamboard' (a digital whiteboard) to allow students to practise questions in the lesson and master topics faster.

I have always had a passion for mathematics and I want to help others to develop this passion or to help further their education. I have just finished my A Levels and received grade A* in A Level Maths which has led me to be currently studying at University College London. Despite my course not being very maths heavy, I am undergoing many maths modules such as 'Differential and Integral Calculus' as I want to continue to extend my maths knowledge. In my previous sixth form I gained experience in tutoring as I was a maths mentor for students struggling with Maths GCSE or Maths A Level so I am able to tutor any education level from primary school to 11+ to Maths GCSE to Maths A Level.

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.
