About me

I have trained as a secondary mathematics teacher which has given me the knowledge and experience to become a tutor.

Since September 2011 I have tutored students for Key Stage 3, Key Stage 4, GCSE, IGCSE, A level and the QTS numeracy skills test. I have also provided work based numeracy skills in an office environment.

I offer a friendly, dedicated and reliable service. I cater for students at all levels and abilities working with them to build confidence in areas where they need support. I believe that all students are capable of achievement and that maths should be enjoyable and not a chore. I have a great passion for maths and I hope to be able to pass this onto my students.
