Information about Stephen

I aim to *make maths mean more*
= more sense +more memorable +more confident +more wow!

It`s vital to develop good moods for learning, which is far too often neglected. I pride myself in finding ways that will work for you (the student), like maybe my "Nun`s Cross" approach that amazingly works for about 10 different maths tasks (from percentage skills to speed problems), saving you from having to master lots of different methods and run the common risk of mixing them up. This also frees you to ditch ways that don`t work for you.

You may well have noticed my positive shift in language from whether you`re "good" at maths to how well maths works for you... I suggest learners don`t so much "get some questions wrong" as find that their maths sometimes doesn`t work correctly for them.

I love to help people boost their maths (or everyday computing skills). So I hope my approach appeals to you.
Otherwise, good luck with yout tutor hunt.

You can find out more about my style of tutoring from my website, the address of which is available via Tutor Hunt.

Regards from Stephen.

Stephen is always on time or if running late will always inform us. He’s teaching my son stuff for his GCSEs and the day after he’s doing most of it in class so well worth the time & money.

Thank you Jackie. Much appreciated. It`s a pleasure to help Charlie boost his maths. Stephen
