Courtney

I am a fully qualified and highly experienced secondary maths teacher with over 10 years of classroom experience, including roles as Head of Mathematics and Assistant Headteacher. I specialise in helping students build confidence, close gaps in understanding, and achieve strong exam results.

I have extensive experience teaching KS3, GCSE (Foundation & Higher), and I am confident supporting students across all major exam boards. My background in school leadership and my masters in education, means I have a strong understanding of how students learn, curriculum progression, exam technique, and what examiners are really looking for.

As a tutor, I provide:

- Clear, structured explanations tailored to each student

- Targeted support to address misconceptions and knowledge gaps

- Exam-focused strategies, including problem-solving and exam technique

- A calm, supportive approach that builds confidence and independence

I work with a wide range of learners, including students who:

- Lack confidence in maths

- Are aiming to improve grades quickly

- Need structured support alongside school learning

- Are preparing for GCSE exams

Sessions are carefully planned and personalised, with regular feedback and guidance so students (and parents) can see clear progress. My aim is not just to improve grades, but to help students feel more confident and capable in maths.

If you are looking for an experienced, reliable maths tutor with a proven track record in schools and with tutoring, I would be very happy to help.
