Information about Adam

QUALIFIED, ENTHUSIASTIC GCSE MATHS TUTOR

EXPERT MICROSOFT EXCEL TUTOR

GCSE MATHS:
If you are looking for a qualified, enthusiastic GCSE maths tutor with experience, hopefully I can help out.

I`m a physics graduate from Bristol University with a passion for science and maths and a keen interest in encouraging others to learn and improve their knowledge of these subjects. I have many interests outside of work including participating in sports of all kinds, volunteering for learning-based events for children, learning Spanish, learning guitar, reading, mountain biking, camping and climbing.


MICROSOFT EXCEL:

Whatever your level and whatever your learning objectives, if you need help with Microsoft Excel I can provide tuition covering a wide range of topics, either at your home or via online lessons.

Lessons could range from a beginners course covering basic tasks such as data entry and manipulation, creating tables, graphs and simple formulae, through to more advanced, focused courses covering pivot tables, data lookups, conditional statements, and other advanced formulae. I can also provide training to write macros in VBA, where you will learn how to automate processes and dramatically expand what you can do with Excel.

I`m available to teach at any location by using online meeting tools such as Google Hangout.

Availability: I am available weekday afternoons and evenings.

I prefer to have the lessons at my house, however I may be willing to travel to your house for an additional cost to cover driving expenses and the time spent traveling.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: GCSE MATHS TUITION:

Regarding the teaching of maths at GCSE-level, I am a well qualified, enthusiastic teacher, motivated to ensure the students I teach make tangible improvements, improve their confidence and give themselves the best chance of obtaining the grades they are capable of. I can communicate mathematical methods and ideas effectively, in a relaxed and encouraging way, and help students of GCSE maths to really improve their ability in the subject.

To give an idea of my approach to tutoring, I will make an initial assessment of the areas of the syllabus with which the student is having the most difficulties and concentrate on these first. I will determine the reason why there is a lack of understanding of these weaker areas, going back along the branches of core principles as far as is necessary to give the student confidence in their understanding and the ability to apply that understanding to answering questions. I will look at different approaches and techniques to answering questions so that there is a logical framework to fall back on and which will further enforce the student`s confidence. We will constantly practice what has been taught to reinforce the knowledge and ideas introduced, using example problems which will initially be set at the student`s current level and incrementally increased in difficulty as the student increases their knowledge and ability.

I try to ensure the tutoring sessions are relaxed and friendly, but with clear learning objectives to aim for within the lesson or over a series of lessons. I believe that this enables my students to concentrate on and enjoy learning and improving their ability in the subject, with direction provided by a clear view of shorter and longer term goals.

Testimonial from a previous client:

"Adam has been friendly, flexible, reliant and most importantly easy for my daughter to relate to. My daughter is hard of hearing so his approachable manner has enabled her to ask questions where she has been unable to ask at school.

Her GCSE grade has moved up from a `C` to a `B` within 6 months ready for her mocks and will hopefully be an `A`/`A*` by May in time for her GCSEs.

I`m more than happy with Adam and would recommend him to any parent looking for a maths tutor"

(Chloe ended up with an A grade.)

MICROSOFT EXCEL:

Regarding Microsoft Excel, I have 9 years of experience of using Microsoft Excel on a daily basis, using complex functions, formulas and macros.

Consequently I have a wide ranging knowledge of the capabilities of this software. I offer tuition for students at beginner and intermediate levels of prior experience.

I can offer structured courses or one-off lessons to help you improve specific areas of your knowledge.

Please contact me to discuss your situation in more detail.
