Information about Edgar

I am educated degree level with a BSc (Hons) in Textile Chemistry
I have A levels in Maths (Pure and Applied) and Chemistry.
I teach Maths at KS3 and KS4 levels at a local secondary school.
I enjoy working with students of all abilities and helping them understand and apply basic Maths principles.
I will use the lessons to identify strengths and build on those. If there are any gaps, I will look to fill these by providing tailored lessons on the topics in question.
I use a number of resources including IPad apps, online resources and text books.
I can go through questions from past exam papers to help students understand how to approach exam questions, checking understanding of the question, modelling how to set out working and checking answers make sense.
I am familiar with the new 9-1 grade system and changes in the new curriculum.
I have an updated clean DBS ( formerly CRB) check carried out in December 2019. Original copy available on request

Edgar has already made a great impact with our son. He has reinvigorated his enthusiasm for the subject and has helped him to move up a set (in 6 weeks!) Edgar is positive, encouraging and worth every penny!

My son was on his way to getting a grade E in maths and so we hired Edgar to give him the best chance of obtaining the grade C, but knowing it would be a real uphill task.

When Edgar arrived he was smartly dressed and carried an air of professionalism with him. He gelled straight away with my son, who has Aspergers, and together they worked incredibly hard for the last GCSE year resulting in a comfortable grade C at exam time.

We are delighted with what Edgar did with our son. His tutoring approach, the different ways he has of explaining the subject matter and his encouraging style coupled with hard work on our son`s side is what made that pass possible.

Highly recommended!

Edgar is an excellent tutor, after 3 sessions my son has already achieved a higher grade. He is approachable, organised and recognises a students ability by getting the best out of them.
