I am a fully qualified teacher based around the Shepperton/Weybridge area. I have a first class degree in Mathematics and Statistics from Coprus Christi College Oxford. I have been teaching since graduating and it is both my passion and my vocation. I have recently obtained a Master`s degree in Education from the University of Exeter,

I believe that students highly benefit from a mastery approach when it comes to the basics of Mathematics. Developing confidence is the key to sucess at all levels, and opens doors to more complex problems. I believe in a supported approach to problem solving, wherein students are given the opportunity to experiement and make mistakes while being given guidance and reassurance. I enjoy challenging the very most able students with problems from the UKMT maths challenges to broaden their thinking.

Experience: From 2015-2016 I taught in a mixed comprehensive in Birmingham, ages 11-16, where I taught the entire range of abilities. Since then, I have been teaching at one of the top independent schools in the local area, and have had great sucess.

I have experience teaching both GCSE and IGCSE Mathematics to a range of abilities, as well as AQA Certificate Further Mathematics. I have also taught A-Level Mathematics and Further Mathematics, as well as having experience with the MAT and STEP. I have worked with students keen to excel in the UKMT papers, and have run Maths extensions groups at school.

For my Master`s degree, I wrote my dissertation was on the impact of dyslexia in Mathematics. As such I fully understand the challenges facing a student with dyslexia in Mathematics, but also have significant experience and understanding of students with dyspraxia, autism and ADHD.
