Recent Graduate giving GCSE Maths and Physics assistance to those in Banbury and surrounding area

Methodology

Looking for GCSE pupils and secondary pupils who need help with Maths GCSE.
My approach involves learning facilitation. A skill that I picked up while working with children and young adults in Nepal. This means I create a framework of support to encourage and nurture pupils to reach their full potential. Lessons are tailored to individual pupils.

Background

Experience of facilitating learning with children in Nepal on a goverment funded placement. Worked with small groups of 2 or 3 and classes of 30+. Covered a range of topics from Climate Change to Sustainable Development.

Experience of being a teaching assistant in an Enquiring Minds class. Working with small table based groups to facilitate understanding.
