Idara

Hello, I`m Idara, a highly dedicated and accomplished tutor with a passion for empowering students to achieve their full potential. As a full-time data/technology apprentice in the lively financial sector, I bring a wealth of practical knowledge and real-world experience to my tutoring sessions. While my weekdays are dedicated to my professional endeavours, I devote my weekends to helping students excel academically.

My teaching style is characterized by a unique blend of enthusiasm, patience, and a deep understanding of how students learn. During my A-level studies in Mathematics, English Literature, and Psychology, I discovered the transformative power of fostering a genuine love for learning. I firmly believe that education should be a source of excitement, energy, and fulfilment, rather than a mere chore.

Recognizing the limitations of conventional teaching methods, I actively seek alternative approaches that engage and inspire my students. I strive to create an environment where students can explore topics in their own way, encouraging their independent thinking and problem-solving skills. By promoting a deeper understanding of concepts, beyond mechanical step-by-step processes, I ensure that my students experience long-lasting benefits in their learning journey.

To help students excel in their exams, I emphasize the importance of dedicated practice and extensive reading. I provide my students with the tools and guidance they need to tackle exam questions with confidence, enabling them to perform at top levels. By encouraging broader reading, I cultivate a sense of intellectual curiosity and equip students with a competitive edge that extends beyond the classroom.

With my impressive academic achievements, including achieving grade 9s at GCSE and As at A-level (Predicted due to Lockdowns in 2020), I possess a strong command of Mathematics and English Literature. Being deeply immersed in a mathematics-based career, I harbour a genuine love for the subject and find great joy in sharing my knowledge with others.

When it comes to tutoring, I am happy to travel up to an hour via public transport. Alternatively, students can be tutored at my flat in Sidcup. Whether it`s the mornings or evenings, I will do my best to accommodate your schedule to ensure optimal convenience for both parents and students. My commitment to fostering a positive and nurturing educational experience, combined with my expertise in my chosen subjects, makes me the ideal tutor for students seeking A* GCSE guidance.

Contact me today to arrange our first lesson! I will be taking on new students from end of July.

Availability: I am available some evenings during the week and all of Sunday.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: I began tutoring in the late months of 2018 and since have taught students ranging from primary school to adult learners. I have tutored a total of around 200 hours between 11 students.

My maths skills have been exceptional since a young age so I understand concepts rather then memorise how to solve specific problems. I aim to transfer this sense of understanding and confidence.
