Zulekha

I am an experienced Maths tutor with a degree from a Russell Group university (University of Edinburgh).

I teach because I love interacting with students, sharing ideas, and expanding students` comprehension and confidence.

School education far too often focuses on algorithmic approaches to mathematics, which require rote-learning and tend to put students off. I avoid this instead I teach with a focus on understanding. Understanding concepts means that remembering associated "rules" requires far less effort (as they make sense), and allows students to develop a real enjoyment of and confidence with mathematics, to use what they have learned in novel situations, and to remember and build on taught concepts in future.

Availability: Free during daytimes, evenings, and weekends.

Willing to travel: 10 miles

Experience: I have been tutoring for four years, working with students from primary school age to 19.
