I’ve tutored students from age 12 to 18, and across all ability ranges – from those struggling with their first official maths exam, to those seeking admission to the best universities. I’ve found that it’s particularly important to put real emphasis on making sure my students understand what is actually going on in a problem, rather than just memorising a method which they can’t explain. This not only enriches their mathematical education, but also makes them far more effective at solving the more difficult problems that appear in exams, which will really let them stand out from the crowd.
In sessions with me, students can expect clear and concise explanation of whatever mathematical topic we are grappling with, before working together through carefully selected questions which highlight every facet and difficulty of the topic, so that you can have confidence that you’ll be prepared for whatever questions come your way. It’s always heartening to watch my students improve in their abilities, and I look forward to sharing my passion for the subject with you. As well as mathematics, I’m also able to offer interview preparation for all mathematical subjects (mathematics, physics, computer science), as many universities (especially Oxford and Cambridge here in the UK) will bombard candidates with difficult maths questions in interviews.
