Hello! I’m Ernan, and I am thrilled to bring over 20 years of hands-on experience in math tutoring to students at the Lower Level and GCSE stages. With a Bachelor’s Degree in Applied Mathematics, I have honed my skills not just in the classroom but also as a game mathematician, where I infused mathematical principles into exciting game design and development projects. My deep-rooted passion for mathematics shines through in my teaching approach, which focuses on making complex concepts engaging and accessible. I excel in working with primary and GCSE age groups, and my fluency in English helps me connect seamlessly with students from diverse backgrounds. When I’m not immersed in teaching, you can find me enjoying my hobbies and spending quality time with my eight beloved dogs. Music is a significant part of my life; I love singing and playing both the guitar and piano, which I often incorporate into my teaching to make learning more enjoyable. My dedication to creating a supportive and dynamic learning environment extends beyond academics, ensuring that each student feels motivated and understood. Let’s work together to unlock the full potential of math and make learning an exciting journey! I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Applied Mathematics with a major in Actuarial Science, complemented by extensive experience in both teaching and practical applications of math. Since January 2000, I have excelled in tutoring a range of topics from primary math to advanced subjects like algebra, trigonometry, geometry, and statistics through face-to-face and online sessions. My career includes roles as a Game Mathematician and Slot Designer, where I crafted detailed mathematical models for slot games, audited and improved existing models, and enhanced player experiences. Additionally, my background as a Software Engineer and Actuarial Assistant has honed my skills in system maintenance and actuarial valuations. I also bring a wealth of certifications to the table, including Certified Computational Finance Analyst, TEFL, and various Microsoft and Google certifications, showcasing my expertise in finance, teaching, and technology. This diverse experience empowers me to apply mathematical principles effectively across various industries. Whether you're seeking to grasp complex mathematical concepts or looking for insights into practical applications, I offer a unique blend of skills and knowledge. Let’s work together to make math engaging and accessible!

GCSE: English Literature and Language A Level: English Literature and Language Experience with: Welsh and English schooling system Preferred student age group: Primary level Ever since my parents introduced me to the world of Roald Dahl and Beatrix Potter, my love for English language and literature has exponentially increased. Before moving to London for university, I lived on a farm in Wales with my family - and many cats! Due to babysitting my two younger cousins for the last five years, I have realised that I love to work with children. I am in awe of their ability to view the world from a perspective so different from the regular adult we encounter every day. My favourite book of all time is 'Silence of the Girls' by Pat Barker. This novel is an essential read, not only for women, but also the male population. It illustrates how the current state of affairs within the international sphere replicates modern day phenomena, with violence against women repeatedly being used as a weapon of war. Thus, my interest in gender-based scholarly studies and the international feminist movement is continually growing. Whilst I love to read in my spare time, I also enjoy singing and meeting new people. However, when I am not singing or socialising, I enjoy playing table tennis and badminton with my older brother. Not only this, but I love fashion and keeping up with the latest trends. Whilst I enjoy keeping active, as illustrated by my part-time lifeguarding job throughout secondary school, seeking the greatest bargains in charity shops is something I could not live without. I am easily distracted by stories, both fictional and non-fictional, and I hope I can bring a fresh and compelling perspective to GoStudent! Education: London School of Economics and Political Science I grew up on a farm in the middle of Wales, attending both primary and secondary school in my neighbouring town. After achieving six A*s, one A and one B in my GCSEs, I was very intrigued to discover how A Level education could continue to challenge me. After receiving three As and an A* in my A Levels (the A* being in English literature and language), I decided to go to the London School of Economics and Political Science to study Politics and International Relations. Despite not studying English in university, I have found that the endless essays I was required to produce have undoubtedly contributed to the continuous improvement of my English skills, and my love for English in general. I have completed my first year in university and look forward to returning to see what second year has to offer! Despite currently being in higher education, I am certainly very excited by the prospect of teaching younger children and helping them to discover how English can be fun! Of course, education is about learning and discovering our strengths, and how we can improve in other weaker areas to enable us to be the best possible version of ourselves! However, if we are not enjoying ourselves when learning, this obviously makes education seem less inviting! Thus, I am a passionate advocate of ensuring that education is not only enlightening, but also enjoyable and fun. I often babysit my two younger cousins and I love to read to them all of my favourite books as a child, as well as teach them new and impressive words they can use in school to show off to the class!

No SEND Experience Preferred Age Group - No preference I have found tutoring to be one of my best strengths. I am able to best cater to my student's needs, goals, and levels and work out a plan to help them reach their goals and beyond. I teach with patience and do not move on till my students understand what I am teaching. I am able to have a good holistic overview of the topics I teach and equip my students with the best tips to help make the subject easier. I am a quick learner and understand the steps to learning that one must take to learn efficiently. Communication and understanding are my strengths, hence why my students are able to grasp the concepts of topics well. I follow a step-by-step process and teach with patience, taking in the request of parents and the needs of the student. I am currently a Business & Management student at Royal Holloway, University of London. Aside from academics, my interests widely range from music, dance, sports, and reading. When I find interest in something, I try to learn and teach myself as I have with dance and the Korean language. I have high expectations for myself and encourage my students to do the same for themselves. I am also told to have a very easy going personality so I have a great rapport with my students and they find me easy to communicate with and ask me questions.
