My Summary
About Me
Friendly, supportive, high-quality mathematics tuition for: GCSE Maths, FSMQ, A level Maths/Further Maths, university entrance exams MAT, STEP, PAT, personal statement, interview practice.
My Experience
I taught mathematics at universities in the UK and Australia for more than 25 years. I was Admissions Tutor for Mathematics at the University of Nottingham for several years. I also recently taught year 7-10 classes in Nottinghamshire secondary schools, in person and online, as part of a teacher training course; through this course, I kept up-to-date with current research on how best to support students in learning mathematics.
I have used my university teaching experience to support students in their A level preparations and university applications, including the UCAS application process, personal statement, preparation for the MAT, PAT and STEP exams, and interview practice. A level students that I have tutored recently have secured places at top-tier universities, including Oxford, Cambridge, Bristol, Bath and York.
My teaching experience in local schools equips me to tutor GCSE students in both Foundation and Higher Tiers, and students studying for the FSMQ Additional Mathematics. My recent GCSE students have succeeded in goals ranging from passing the Foundation exam to securing a Higher Tier grade 9.
So whether you are looking to catch up on some missed learning as you head towards GCSEs, aiming to improve your performance in A levels, in IB or in university applications and entrance exams, I can provide you with the support you need.
My Qualifications
I have a First Class honours degree in Mathematics from the University of Oxford and a PhD in Mathematics from the University of Bristol. While working at the University of Nottingham, I won a Lord Dearing Award for my “excellent reputation for engaging students and delivering innovative teaching” and a Vice-Chancellor’s Medal for setting up and running a successful peer-mentoring scheme for Mathematics students.
My Availability
I am available to tutor in person or online.
I usually have some availability during the daytime and in the evenings on weekdays. If it proves difficult to find a convenient time during the week then I may also be able to offer tuition at weekends.
