Stephanie

I am a passionate former maths teacher with excellent subject knowledge who offers tuition tailored to each students’ individual needs. I have recently started a new career in the railway industry but still very much enjoy tutoring. I am an approachable and friendly person which helps my students to feel relaxed and fully engaged in my lessons.

In my spare time I love playing badminton, skiing and snowboarding.

Availability: I am based in the west of Milton Keynes MK4, MK5, MK8 (outside of this area may be possible depending on my schedule/travel time). Get in touch to discuss your requirements.

Available Monday/Friday evening or weekends to prepare for 2023 exams or longer term.

Willing to travel: 3 miles

Experience: I am highly qualified in mathematics, with a masters degree from Durham University, as well as being an experienced teacher and examiner. I taught for 8 years beginning in a local comprehensive school then moving on to a prestigious independent school. I have taught A Level Maths, Futher Maths, GCSE and IGCSE qualifications for the AQA and Edexcel exam boards as well as KS3 maths and physics.

Through my experience as a full-time secondary school teacher, I have developed a thorough understanding of the curriculum and children’s learning needs. This means that I can be very adaptable to your child’s requirements. I am able to design my questioning and explanations to target the common misconceptions that pupils may have; focus on the most important content and techniques to prepare for exams; adapt methods to suit the child; and build up confidence with appropriate starting points and scaffolding.

In addition, my work as an expert GCSE examiner for Edexcel means that I know exactly how marks are awarded for this qualification and the type and style of problem demanded from the new GCSEs, as well as common mistakes and successful methods.

I am willing to tutor pupils in Year 6, KS3 and those studying for GCSE, IGCSE and A level.
