Information about Siddiq

I achieved four A* in Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Chemistry at A-level and am reading Mathematics at the University of Oxford. At Emanuel School, I was an academic scholar and Head Boy. I can tutor in Maths and Further Maths to help students better their understanding of mathematical concepts. I can also tutor for mathematical Olympiads and maths challenges for students looking to extend their abilities.

Availability: (Arrange a schedule with me)

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: I have tutored many students in Maths and Further Maths, ranging from ages 8 to 18.

I led a class of excelling Year 8 pupils, so I know how to encourage younger students to apply mathematical concepts they already knew to problems they’ve never seen before, but also inspire them with new concepts to carry with them for the future. We focused on UKMT problems, which require thinking outside the box to answer. It is great to see their cogs turning and to gently tease them towards a solution.

More recently, I have been helping a Year 12 student, revise for his end-of-year A-level Maths and Further Maths exams via frequent video-calls. I requested a testimonial and he said:
“Siddiq’s teaching style is enthusiastic and effective, and he is extremely encouraging. Often, Siddiq provides clear and concise analogies which help to explain complicated topics, as found in the Further Maths A-Level Course. He also ensures to test my understanding frequently. Siddiq`s enthusiasm for mathematics is evident; I feel much more confident with Maths now and our sessions have encouraged me to pursue Mathematics further. Overall, Siddiq is a friendly, reliable and approachable tutor.” (Muhsin A.)

Outside of school, I am employed by a visually impaired A level English teacher. Having for two years now aided with coursework marking and administration, among other tasks, I am comfortable in catering for a person with specific needs, especially as we have recently had to work remotely by video-call.

With a passion for maths, I took every opportunity to involve myself in extra-curricular activities at school, such as numerous competitions. I excelled in the UKMT Maths Challenges, achieving a gold certificate every year from Year 6 to Year 13, and reaching the British Maths Olympiads 1 and 2. In February, I attended the UK final of the Bebras Computational Thinking Challenge, which required acute logical awareness for less number-based problems.

From Year 8, I was in Emanuel’s Hans Woyda team, which travelled to other schools for quickfire maths battles. I loved watching the sixth formers answer what looked to me then like impossible equations, and having now encountered these techniques, I appreciate the versatility of numbers, how they can be manipulated to solve countless problems. However, I find that maths not only helps with technical problem-solving, but also that the logic found can be applied to many other parts of life. It opens my eyes to see the world more scrupulously and analytically. To me, this way of thinking is something too precious to be left behind in a classroom.

My other interests besides Maths include music and poetry. I write songs and poems and play the piano and guitar.
