Jonathan

I am a former primary school teacher and leader, living in Islington. I now lead maths across 23 primary schools for a large academy trust. I am easy-going, but hard-working when it comes to my studies. I have always enjoyed helping others, and have taken that into my job as a teacher. I am a keen sportsman (football, hockey, tennis and others), and I am willing to give most things a try!

Tutoring Experience

I spent 6 years teaching in Westminster after two years working in Waltham Forest, spending time as a class teacher, then maths and year lead and then assistant principal. Between my time spent at university and the beginning of my teaching career in the UK, I taught in a British school in Santiago, Chile which offered me a fantastic, alternative viewpoint of education.
I have tutored various students with maths across primary, secondary, GCSE and A-Level over the past 10 years.

Tutoring Approach

I can be flexible in my approach, whether you are aiming to achieve the highest grade at A-Level or GCSE and want very focused tutor sessions, or are looking to deepen your understanding in the subject. Furthermore, I can provide a boost to someone who is not achieving as highly as they would like, or needs a final push to get the grade they desire.
I also aim to make what I teach enjoyable, and I will look to make things easy to relate to for my tutees. I hope that by enabling my tutees to have fun when learning, they will then become even more self motivated to help themselves in addition to our tutor sessions.
