Information about Adam
I am a passionate teacher of Mathematics and Physical Education have been a full time tutor for 2 years after teaching at a grammar school in Southend, Essex and have a great deal of enthusiasm about education. I have a Masters qualification in education from the University of East Anglia, completing it over 4 years alongside my job. Before this, I graduated from the University of Essex (2:1) in Sports and Exercise Science. I am a fully qualified examiner in Mathematics for the Edexcel exam board. At GCSE I have achieved around 90% A.A and at A-level 50% A*-A. In my tutoring I have tutored now for 5 years and have worked with many 11+ students who are hoping to gain entry to the local grammar schools
I have a real love for both the subjects I teach and have had many positive comments made from pupils and parents alike. Having taught at a grammar school I know exactly what is needed to gain entry into a selective school and have given many group tutoring sessions at School in Mathematics to prospective pupils. Over the past 5 years of tutoring I have had excellent success at 11+, GCSE and A-level in both Physical Education and Mathematics.
Availability: NOW PARTICULARLY LOOKING FOR A LEVEL MATHEMATICS STUDENTS DURING DAY TIME FREE PERIODS AND HOME SCHOOLED OR DAY TIME SESSIONS. ALMOST FULLY BOOKED IN THE WEEKDAYS. SOME WEEKEND SLOTS ALSO AVAILABLE!
Willing to travel: 10 miles
Experience: I trained in 2010-11 at the University of East Anglia (UEA) completing a PGCE in Physical Education. Since then I have worked at Westcliff High School for Boys, teaching both Mathematics and Physical Education for 4 years. I have also recently become a head of year at the School and this is alongside my teaching duties.
I have tutored privately in Mathematics before to different clients, and I have also tutored groups of younger pupils in Mathematics hoping to gain entry to the school.
In Physical Education I have achieved very high results both at GCSE (approx 85% A.A across two cohorts) and AS/A2 Physical Education (A2 - 80% A.A and AS 75% A grade) and have taught both for many years.
Being a teacher I am acutely aware of how teachers can drastically affect the experiences of pupils. I am very passionate about my subjects and expect the very best from my pupils. I particularly like to use a range of resources and materials within my teaching/tutoring and will not simply just teach using pen and paper.
Once tutees are familiar and can work with fundamental elements of the subject, I look to incorporate practice papers (11+/GCSE) to try and further develop the tutees answering ability.
I also look to use technology where possible, by communicating with tutees through Skype/Facetime and emails to further enhance their learning experience. I am very keen to set H/W and expect the tutees to complete this punctually.

Feedback For Adam (10)

Adam is AMAZING! He took time to see where my daughter was struggling in Maths and started by concentrating on those areas. If she doesn`t understand something he explains it, in language that she understands. In a very short space of time my daughter has moved up 2 stages in her Maths work at school. I`m so pleased and would highly recommend Adam to anyone looking to further there child`s education.

Adam is a great PE tutor and he has really helped my son with his A level revision. Adam is very a accommodating and enthusiastic tutor who knows his subject.
