About Gary

My degree is in mathematics, with QTS. I chose it because I love mathematics, not because of what it is for. A proof is worth doing because it is true and because it is elegant, and that has been enough for me since I was at school.

I went into computing afterwards. It came easily, and I liked the mathematics sitting underneath it. I now teach Computer Science at a college in Brighton and I am doing a PhD in astrophysics, modelling how massive stars form.

Most students I meet do not lack ability. They have been told, or have decided, that they are not a maths person. That is almost always wrong and it is usually the first thing we deal with.

I start the first lesson with a diagram. A few crossing lines, a couple of angles given, and the rest to be worked out.

It is a small problem and it tells me most of what I need to know. I watch how you get from one step to the next, where you stop, and what you do when you are not sure of the answer. We talk it through. You do not sit there working in silence while I mark something.

After that I teach what the diagram tells me to teach. I do not start at the front of the specification. If the trouble is further back, in fractions or negatives or rearranging, we go back and fix it; everything else stands on top of it.

Then it is teaching and past papers, marked the way the examiner marks them, so you can see where you are losing marks and why. I set a little work between lessons and we go through it at the start of the next one.

Online or in person. AQA, Edexcel and OCR, Foundation and Higher.
