Each student is unique and has different ways of learning. I take the students level of understanding in consideration and build up upon how he/she might learn quickest and is able to apply them. There are always more than one way of solving math and science problems and I would help the student in using the best way for each of them.

I am an excellent and experienced Mathematics teacher from Nigeria. I currently live at Rochdale, Manchester. I have an innate ability to teach Mathematics well and impact knowledge adequately. I have thorough knowledge of the subject and can break down complex topics into simpler parts. I explain concepts clearly. I have been teaching SAT, IGCSE and A-level Mathematics for more than 15 years. The results of my students have always been admirably excellent. I am committed to continuous learning. I enjoy working with teenagers with a view to bringing the best out of them. I am indeed approachable, accommodating, trustworthy, dependable, hardworking, and responsible.
I was the best Mathematics teacher in Nigeria 2016 organized by Cowbellpedia and also won the best Teacher for 2016/2017 session in Dansol High School, Lagos, Nigeria with huge cash award.
I encourage my students to view mistakes as learning opportunities and make them feel safe to ask questions. I also make lessons interactive by encouraging the students to ask questions, share their thoughts, and work together with me to solve problems. I incorporate diagrams, graphs, and visual aids to explain abstract concepts. I teach patiently in order to give each student time to understand and help them build confidence. I also know that students have different learning styles and abilities. Therefore, I work with my students gradually with empathy and passion.
I make the environment conducive so that students are encouraged to ask questions and explore multiple ways to solve problems.
I also emphasize understanding the reasoning behind mathematical rules and procedures, not just memorizing formulas.
I provide constructive feedback to help students improve and encourage them to take ownership of their learning. I also collaborate with parents to ensure holistic support for the students.
The GCSE Mathematics syllabus is designed to develop a strong foundation in mathematical concepts, problem-solving, and analytical thinking. I ensure that my students are thoroughly taught the topics like algebra, probability, statistics, geometry and measures etc.
The GCSE Mathematics syllabus is essential for further education and practical applications in daily life, providing a pathway to A-Level Mathematics and STEM subjects.
Names of some of the textbooks I use are;
 Mathematics GCSE for AQA Teacher’s Resources
 New Further Mathematics Project textbooks by M.R Tuttuh Adegun and co
 Cambridge International AS and A-level Mathematics by Sophie Goldie, series Editor, Roger Porkess
 Pearson Edexcel International A-level Mathematics student books etc

This class is for any level! Whether you are already a strong student trying to push for a grade 9 or someone who has struggled with math. The class aims to push any level of student to becoming a strong confident math student, and hopefully the study and organisation skills you pick up from math will transfer to other subjects too. In the first session I'd ask a couple of questions to gauge your current understanding, then build a plan to have you fully prepared by the time term starts.

Sessions are built around GCSE and Year 11 prep strengthening core topics, tightening exam technique, and building confidence before the new year starts but the class isn't limited to one year group. Whether you're heading into Year 11, need a refresh on GCSE fundamentals, or want general high school maths support, the sessions flex to meet you where you're at.

I am a professional, TEFL and CELTA qualified ESOL teacher with 15 years experience in a wide range of teaching situations, working in Shenzhen, China for over two years (2011 – 2013), and then in Manchester, UK until now.

My particular expertise is providing preparatory tuition and support to candidates taking IELTS, OET (Occupational English Test) or Cambridge ESOL exams (eg. B2 First). However, I also have extensive experience in teaching all aspects of general and business English to all levels and ages.

Previous roles include working for a large, UK recruitment company where I provided online tuition, mentoring and assessment to groups of nurses in India and the Philippines and later, also Spain and Italy. I was a team member charged with facilitating these candidates’ success in IELTS (and later OET), in which they were required to achieve a minimum band score of 7 in all four sub-tests. This was essential to qualify them to work in the UK’s NHS. The process consisted of a busy weekly programme of scheduled one-to-one Skype sessions (up to 50 candidates per week) and a series of scheduled, 1-2 hour group webinars with up to 100 attendees, for which I personally produced many Power Point Presentations.

I gained further remote work experience during the Covid lock-down periods, teaching groups and individuals through online platforms such as Learn Cube, Zoom, Voov (Chinese), Skype and Teams.

I believe my lengthy and broad experience in English language teaching and related freelance services has equipped me with all relevant skills, experience and resources to help you succeed.
