Mathematics Undergraduate student at the University of Southampton gives maths lessons to students in Southampton

Methodology

I am a Mathematics Undergraduate student at the University of Southampton and I would like to give students of various levels (GCSE, A Levels, IB) the opportunity to gain a better and deeper understanding of this subject. This will help pupils gain the necessary confidence to tackle important exams and hopefully develop a passion for Mathematics.

From experience, I understand that mathematics can be a challenging subject to learn and not everyone understands it in the same way. As a result, I do not have a standard lesson structure. I aim to keep my teaching methods open to change and tailor them in order to best satisfy the needs of each and every student. I will thus get to know my pupils and adapt my teaching methodology to their needs. This will achieve better results, in a shorter timeframe!

Background

I have given tutoring lessons for approximately 2 years in a drop-in "Maths clinic". As most of the students came to get help around exam time, I had the pleasure to support many pupils through this stressful time and give them the confidence to take GCSE, A-Level and IB exams.
