I specialise in teaching GCSE and A-level students and I teach Mathematics at all levels and can teach GCSE science if required. My unique teaching style involves teaching students in a way that does not follow the textbook strictly, but allows students to bypass that and I offer them "cheat" alternative methods to allow them to solve questions more easily and offering suitable advice where necessary. Having done Further Maths and received A*s in all maths, while participating in other competitions, I can teach it from a former student's perspective rather than a teacher at school.

Hello, I’m Sam. I’m currently an University student at Exeter University, studying Economics. I recently left KCS, Wimbledon with three A-Levels (Maths A*, Economics A*, Latin A). I’m keen to tutor students at A-Level or below in either Maths or GCSE or below in Latin. I achieved grade 9s in Maths, Further Maths and Latin at iGCSE.

I have experienced tutoring students aged 8-16 over the last 4 years in Maths and Latin, both online and in person. I have further experience working with children having coached football, rugby and cricket for the last 4 years.

I am a very flexible tutor, and am happy to teach whatever my student needs most that session, whether it be a homework or concept they don’t quite understand, or revision for an upcoming test. I have a deep understanding of current curriculums, having studied them across various exam boards not too long ago.

During sessions, I'd start be seeing where my tutee has been struggling or making mistakes, before walking through practice questions with them, to see how their current level of understanding translates into real, exam-style questions. I aim for my tutees to take the front seat during sessions, in order that they are doing all the critical thinking, in order to help them practise without my help. I may also set a few short homeworks to ensure my tutees are consolidating what they have learnt, and don't forget it all by the time our next session comes around!

My main aim is for my tutees to enjoy the subject! By enjoying it, you will be more inclined to concentrate, and put the work in to achieve their potential by the time exam season comes around. I believe that no matter how a student has performed in their subject in previous years, I can help them achieve the highest grades in their exams, and I will not settle for less!

Welcome to an engaging and dynamic learning experience designed to unlock the mysteries of GCSE & A Level Mathematics/Science! In these lessons, we embark on a journey of exploration and discovery, delving deep into the fascinating world of mathematical and scientific principles.

Key Features:

Interactive Learning: Prepare to be actively engaged in every lesson through hands-on activities, stimulating discussions, and immersive multimedia resources. We believe that active participation is the key to deepening understanding and retention of complex concepts.

Real-World Applications: Explore the relevance of Mathematics/Science in everyday life and various fields of study. From solving practical problems to understanding the underlying principles behind natural phenomena, we bridge the gap between theory and application, fostering a deeper appreciation for the subjects.

Personalized Support: Recognizing that every student learns differently, we provide personalized support tailored to individual needs and learning styles. Whether you're a visual learner, an auditory learner, or a hands-on learner, we strive to accommodate your preferences and empower you to succeed.

Conceptual Clarity: Our approach emphasizes conceptual clarity over rote memorization. We aim to equip you with a solid foundation of understanding, enabling you to tackle complex problems with confidence and creativity.

Critical Thinking and Problem-Solving: Develop your analytical skills and problem-solving abilities as we navigate through challenging mathematical and scientific scenarios. By encouraging curiosity and inquiry, we foster a growth mindset that prepares you to tackle real-world challenges beyond the classroom.

Collaborative Learning: Embrace the power of collaboration as we engage in group activities, peer discussions, and cooperative problem-solving tasks. Through collaboration, we harness the collective wisdom and diverse perspectives of the group, enriching our learning experience and fostering a sense of community.

Feedback and Reflection: Receive timely feedback on your progress and performance, guiding you towards continuous improvement and growth. We believe that constructive feedback is essential for refining skills and overcoming obstacles on the path to mastery.

Lesson Structure:

Each lesson is thoughtfully structured to optimize learning outcomes and student engagement. We begin with a brief overview of the lesson objectives and key concepts, followed by interactive presentations, guided practice exercises, and collaborative activities. Throughout the lesson, there are opportunities for questions, discussions, and reflections to deepen understanding and address any misconceptions.

Outcome:

By the end of these lessons, you will emerge as a confident and proficient learner, equipped with the knowledge, skills, and mindset to excel in GCSE & A Level Mathematics/Science. Whether you're aiming for academic success, pursuing further studies in STEM fields, or simply seeking to enrich your understanding of the world around you, these lessons will empower you to reach your goals and unleash your full potential.
