Information about Joseph
Based in York, I am a friendly, patient and dedicated tutor with a First Class Masters degree in Physics from the University of York. I will always be prepared, conscientious and focused on helping you succeed in your goals.
Patience, empathy and understanding of the individual`s needs are at the core of my teaching method. Progress is recorded after each session and future sessions are planned accordingly. Each individual student will vary on what they need to focus on and in what proportions - background theory, preliminary questions or past papers. Sometimes a topic will have to be approached from different angles to bring about understanding and I believe my patience and creativity in this area help.
My knowledge of each maths syllabus (at each maths level/with different exam boards) is thorough, but beyond this, I also feel it is vital to understand the exam process - where marks are given in exams and what the examiner likes to see. I always try to give the student clear step-by-step techniques to approach questions that can be repeated in the high-pressure atmosphere of exams.
Availability: I`m very flexible, willing to work on weekdays and at the weekend, both during the day and in the evening.
I`m also available for more intense periods of tuition - for example, over summer/school holidays. I realise sometimes students do not always have as much free time during term time, so the holidays might be the best option to work through a subject.
Willing to travel: 5 miles
Experience: I started out by helping my brother with his GCSE maths. My strength has always been in maths/science subjects whereas my brother found it more difficult, but I worked through different maths topics with him, before helping with example questions and past papers. I also tutored a younger student (in degree-level content) at university whilst completing my Masters degree in Physics.
I have since taught all levels of secondary school maths extensively (Key Stage 3, GCSE, A-Level and equivalents), successfully tutoring students of many different abilities. I have found one-to-one teaching to be very enjoyable and rewarding and I take great pride in helping each student improve and succeed.

My 12 year old grandson has just had his second maths tuition with Joseph. Joseph asked all the right questions regarding where my grandson was at with Maths and what we expected from the tuition. My grandson is enjoying the hours tuition each week, he said he feels confident with Joseph as he can ask questions and Joseph explains, we have gone right back to basics because my grandson missed so much school in year 6 and now year 7 due to pandemic. My grandson is now looking forward to going back to school in September with more confidence and knowing he has the extra tuition every week. My grandson and I would recommend Joseph 100%.

Joseph has been brilliant with our son, who`s in Year 8. Our son had lost confidence in maths and Joseph has worked wonders with him. Our son feels so much happier about the subject and now enjoys it. He particularly enjoys the sessions with Joseph. He`s very patient and the sessions are interesting and fun. Can`t recommend him enough.
