Subjects I teach: GCSE: Mathematics and Further Mathematics A-level: Mathematics and Further Mathematics Higher level: Mathematics and Further Mathematics Most familiar exam board: Any Languages: English - Native speaker Preferred student age group: GCSE and A-level students (15-18) About me: Hello! I am a recent graduate from Brighouse, West Yorkshire, with a first class Master's degree in Mathematics (MMath) from the University of Nottingham. I had a great deal of success at degree level - having won academic prizes in all four years and conducted my own research on carbon fibre preforms. I also spent time using statistical techniques to conduct impact analysis at the University of Bath, where I was a PhD research student. In terms of tutoring, I have taught Further Maths A-level to a group of first year undergraduates and Further Maths GCSE to year 11 students. On top of this, I’ve had a number of online and face-to-face students, across a range of qualifications and exam boards. I love watching the lightbulb spark in my students and confidence blossom over time, allowing them to achieve their full potential. Finally, in my free time I enjoy going to the gym, running and doing puzzles. 1st class Master’s in Maths with Applied Mathematics, focussed on mathematical physics, scientific computation and statistics. During this time, I completed a summer research project on modelling the permeability of carbon fibre preforms and my dissertation on numerical methods for solving stochastic differential equations. I got full marks in my A-level Maths and Further Maths, and over the course of my A-level studies I spent time at the University of Cambridge and the University of Manchester. Finally, I was a PhD research student at the University of Bath where I studied impact analysis as well as Bayesian Methods and Quantum Computing.

I am currently an undergraduate student at the University of Birmingham studying History and Politics B.A. and I want to help students achieve their goals and be of support whenever I am needed. I am kind, easy to talk and to, and I am available to help whenever. I received 9s and 8s in my Maths, Further Maths, and Chemistry IGCSE. I also attended independent schools so I am well-versed in the 11+ process when it comes to exams. I also passed the Buckinghamshire 11+ exams for grammar schools so I have experience in both exam qualifications and can help anyone who is applying to either/or.

I am an effective tutor. I’ve worked with SEN students including students with; dyscalculia, ADHD, dyslexia and autism. Whether you are looking to increase your grade by a little, or a lot I am here to get you to that full potential. I can teach GCSE maths. I work based on the students’ needs and I am very much able to adapt to their preferred learning style. As I am a visual learner myself, I work with students particularly through diagrams, visual aids and in depth examples, drawn on interactive whiteboards as well as analogies to explain concepts required for their curriculum and more importantly, the final exam. Practice exam and past paper questions are key to unlocking the higher grades, and so I always integrate questions throughout the teaching of content during lesson to ensure the student understands and digests what they have learnt properly through application, you will never be short of exam practice in one of my lessons, as that is how the real exam will be like. There is always an open door policy to ask whatever questions you need to, whether that is in or out of lesson time, no question is too big or small. I look forward to guiding you into achieve the academic potential you and I know you are capable of. I achieved 5 grades 9’s and 5 grade 8’s at GCSE, this includes: - A 9 in Maths and Chemistry - An 8 in Biology and Physics. My A-levels are as follows: - B in Biology - B in Chemistry. - B In Maths I am currently a first year Biomedical Science Student, and am teaching: - GCSE MATHS

Exam Board Experience: Cambridge IGCSE's, International Baccalaureate Languages: English (First Language), Polish (First Language), German (Fluent), French (Up to IGCSE) SND Experience: / About me: I am currently studying my Master's in Development Studies at the LSE (London School of Economics and Political Science). Within my Bachelor's and now Master's, I have had courses in Advanced Mathematics, Advanced Statistics and various other courses which apply Maths, such as Econometrics. My main hobbies are cooking, reading, and going on runs! I also love getting to know new people and learning more about various cultures. My current goals are to master more cuisines, manage to run 10 kilometres in under an hour and hopefully travel more in the future. I am open to getting to know and working with any student and am excited to be part of an opportunity in which I can help people feel more confident with their maths skills and hopefully enjoy the subject even more!
