Experience: Currently, I am teaching full-time mathematics at a secondary school in Warwick and I am a part-time GCSE and IGCSE Edexcel examiner.

Tutoring is a great way to help students make progress, to share my passion for mathematics and to hear appreciation after they start mastering concepts that they never understood before.

In my planning, I use a variety of resources to challenge students, to increase their focus, motivation and confidence in mathematics. Furthermore, I use exam style questions in the practice tasks to ensure that pupils get used to the structure of a maths exam paper and the language they use. For homework, I give students past exam papers because I strongly believe that the `way to learn mathematics is to do mathematics` (Paul Halmos).

Lesson structure (face-to-face/online):
-Knowledge recap/Homework check;
-Modelled Examples & Practice.

About the online lessons:
-I use a MacBook and an iPad for the student to see all my notes during the session.
-I adapt the content during the lesson depending on student`s strengths and weaknesses.

DBS Check: Yes
