Information about Julia
Fully qualified teacher with 11 years experience in schools and tutoring.
Is maths a mystery? Do you wish you understood why as well as how? If you ask a question, does your teacher give the same explanation again and again? It doesnt have to be that way. My methods really work; my students increase their mathematical abilities and confidence, and can explain what theyre doing. Some are so excited after my lessons that they can`t wait to tell their parents all about it! Do you wish your child was so inspired by their teacher that they voluntarily did extra maths in order to improve?
If your child has had a difficult time with maths at school, or perhaps you`ve tried other tutors and been disappointed, fear not, there is a better way. Follow other parents who have noticed their child leave my lessons with a grin, and a bounce in their step, follow other students who have messaged me after exams to tell me that there was so much they could do! This way works; maths doesn`t have to be a mystery.
About me
I am a fully qualified teacher, with ten years experience teaching all levels 11-18, including the new GCSE and A-level. In the first lesson, I`ll ask lots of questions to get a picture of what my new student can and can`t yet do, and more importantly, what they understand. I`ll then use that to build a programme for the next few weeks, including any topics that they would like to work on. Often I point out weaknesses that my students haven`t noticed or haven`t realised are holding them back; once we fix these, progress is visible and can be quick.
My planning is completely flexible and is built around my students progress and needs, and I use a variety of resources so that we can explore topics in different ways. I am patient and used to explaining concepts in several different ways to find the way that works for each individual. I dont teach tricks (unless you want me to), I focus on helping students to understand.
What online lessons require and involve
Having online lessons is often something students havent considered or perhaps feel daunted by. Ive taught a number of students online, some exclusively so and some when convenient e.g. when they or I went on holiday. Online lessons also allow me to be more flexible over timings and to offer a lower rate since no travel is involved.
Has your child ever been so excited by their maths lessons that they asked to have one while away on holiday? My students have!
Online lessons require a computer, not necessarily a laptop, internet access and a quiet room.
I carry out lessons on Bitpaper, an online free whiteboard. If students sign up for an account, they can save that whiteboard and come back to it whenever they want. Thus they have ready-made notes after each lesson.
My students can opt to have cameras on or not; I am always happy to follow my students lead on this. I know some people prefer to work unseen whereas others like being able to look at my face as we discuss topics. What matters is that my students are comfortable.
I set homework on another website, also free to use, that marks work for me and the student and allows me to focus on giving feedback and correcting misconceptions.
Online tutoring greatly increases your choice of tutors. Why not contact me today and tell me what it is you would like to achieve?
Willing to travel: Home Only
Experience: I have been a secondary maths teacher/tutor for eleven years both in person and online.

Julia is a fabulous teacher. She gives material in a very structured way and makes students to be responsible with a great part of self control. Her methods of explanation are visual and therefore easy to be learned. Many thanks to her!

My daughter has really enjoyed her sessions with Julia. Julia works at her pace and is supportive with new methods that help my daughter`s understanding. She is keen to keep up with the lesson follow up work which always seems to be at the right level and or a reasonable length. Thank you.
