I am a prize-winning maths graduate from Oxford University and A-level Top Candidate, offering bespoke maths tuition services.
I offer maths tuition with a difference to students at various stages of their academic career. I support those looking for help with GCSE/IGCSE/AS/A2/AEA/Oxford Entrance Exam/STEP maths.
Traversing the mathematical landscape is an art; it can be a very uncomfortable environment for some. I find it so important to make my students feel at ease and to find confidence in their maths and so important to be friendly and patient. I am not a suited, booted assessor, nor old-school.
As well as engaging with students in this manner, my aim as a maths tutor is to get my students to think mathematically; to uncover the inherent simplicity in methods and concepts and to truly understand what is being worked with. It is my business to focus thought, prevent confusion and stimulate the development of good ideas.
The feedback I've received as a tutor indicates that I am very successful in creating a supportive atmosphere that encourages discussion, openness and hard effort. I employ illuminating explanations and navigate sticking points, and as a result maths is considerably easier to handle under my guidance.
As well as offering support for those with difficulties or specific grade aspirations at standard levels, I can also challenge the very able as intensely as they could hope for, introducing them to the mindset, rigour and practise required for the more challenging AEA and STEP papers.
At university I was lucky enough to find myself the one to whom my peers turned with mathematical difficulties: I have been depended on to explain advanced maths effectively for years; my Masters degree is an exceptionally high First. I am sure this accounts for two more areas of particularly positive feedback I've received as a tutor: in explaining concepts and in effectively dealing with problems as they arise.
I hold a recent enhanced CRB disclosure.

I am here to provide a complete teaching experience that in addition to ironing out difficulties and providing excellent exam preparation as matter of course, at no extra effort on the part of the student introduces them to the thought processes and insights of the professional mathematician.
I have the STRONGEST sense of duty of care to my students and want everyone who I work with to exceed their own expectations and the expectations of others and to walk away feeling truly proud of their achievements.
