Christopher

Hi, I`m Chris and I have 24 years` experience as a tutor of Maths, English,11+ entrance and Home-schooling tuition. I am also experienced teaching adults both for GCSE Maths, as well as for Adult Numeracy tests for Qualified Teacher entrance and also for Job Qualification entries.
Furthermore, I am very experienced at providing Full National Curriculum tuition to home-schooled students for both KS3 and GCSE Maths.
I also extensively teach Maths at Key Stage 1, Key Stage 2 ,Key Stage 3 and GCSE level.
In addition to this, I teach English at Key Stage 1. Key Stage 2 Key Stage 3 (English Language only). I am fully up to date with the new 9-1 National Curriculum in both Maths & English, having prepared students in both subjects for 9-1 exams.
In Maths, I am fully up to date with the new topics in the new 9-1 GCSE Maths syllabus, such as Sets, Iteration, Velocity/ Time Graphs, finding the nth term of a quadratic sequence, quadratic inequalities, finding the equation to a tangent to a circle, finding inverse and composite functions, and many more...

In 11+ tuition, I have taught around 60 students over the years, and I have a 90% success rate at getting students into Grammar and Private Schools (this is 9 times higher than the average of 10% of students who sit an 11+ exam, and then get into their selective school). I am experienced at teaching all types of 11+ preparation, including CEM and standard versions.
In addition to this, I am experienced at preparing Adult students for the Qts Numeracy & Literacy Tests and i have a 100% success rate with this (5 out of 5 in Numeracy have passed, and 2 out of 2 in Literacy). I am also experienced preparing students for other Numeracy & Literacy Tests.
I live in Telford, Shropshire
I have 58 written references from parents and I also have a Maths degree.
I also have a proven track record of success. For example, I improved 2 students in GCSE Maths recently from F grades to C grades in 9 months. Also, I improved another student in GCSE Maths recently from a C grade to an A grade in 7 months!
Meanwhile, at Primary level, I improved one student from a level 3a in Maths, and a 4c in English (i.e. only just above average), to a level 5a in Maths & English in her Year 6 Sats. She was top of all her year group for Maths & English- so she had improved 2 levels in 18 months. At KS3 level, I have had great success too- one student improved from a level 6 to a level 8 in 2 months` tuition in Maths!
Over the 23 years that I have been a tutor, I have worked with students of all levels & abilities from those with Learning Disabilities to the Gifted & Talented. Within the Learning Disabilities` spectrum, I have taught students with all types of Learning Disability, including those with Dylslexia , Dyspraxia , ADHD, ADD, Dyscalculia, Asperges and Short-term Memory Retention.

I have for much of those 23 years worked as a full-time tutor, and I use National Curriculum Resources for all my tuitions.
