Subjects

Listed below are the subjects in which I am experienced and that I can offer to teach students. If you would like further information on anything please do not hesitate to get in touch to discuss.

Keystage 1-3

If you feel your child is struggling to grasp the basics of mathematics, this is the perfect chance to ensure they receive extra tuition before they embark on their GCSE's. In a friendly environment using fun techniques I will give your child the knowledge they need to prosper in this subject.

GCSE

GCSE's are key qualifications to have and I can offer help with Maths, Physics and Chemistry. I have a very thorough understanding of the current curriculum and what is needed to pass exams at GCSE level and and will help all of my students to gain a good understanding of the key concepts and principles in these areas. I also focus on good examination techniques so that you are in the best possible position to take your exam.

Higher

Higher maths qualifications look at modules that are not originally covered at A-Level stage. You will learn varying techniques that you can apply to many different situations. It can be a challenging subject, with the pass rate for higher maths in 2019 only at 42%, but with my experience in this area I can ensure you are well prepared to succeed.

A-Level

Studying maths and physics at this level can be daunting and more complex than at the GCSE stage. With my experience and by applying specific proven techniques in your studies, we can tackle this subject at your pace and leave you feeling confident to take your exam.

Engineering

Engineering mathematics looks at learning specific mathematical processes that are normally required when looking at careers in the fields of engineering and sciences. Many people studying mathematics at this level need to fit their studies around work and other commitments but with my flexible approach, this can easily be accomplished without being an issue.
