I hold an undergraduate degree in Mathematics and a PhD in Medical Statistics, and I’m here to make maths easier, more approachable, and fun for you! Whether you're preparing for exams or just need help with tricky topics, I’m ready to guide you every step of the way.

Your first lesson is 100% free, giving us the perfect opportunity to get to know each other and for me to fully understand your needs, so I can tailor your lessons accordingly.

Tutoring Approach

I believe maths should be approachable and fun, and I'm passionate about helping you discover the areas of maths that are both stimulating and rewarding — giving you the motivation to tackle revision and prepare for your high-school exams. Here’s how I make it work:

• I break things down into simple steps so nothing feels overwhelming
• I tailor lessons to suit your unique learning style
• I share practical tips for solving problems and managing exams without stress
• I create a relaxed, friendly atmosphere where questions are always welcome!

I believe in using a variety of resources to support your learning:

• Books: I use a range of textbooks and revision guides to provide clear explanations and extra practice. I can recommend specific books based on the topics you're studying.
• Online Resources: I incorporate interactive tools and platforms that offer video tutorials, exercises, and quizzes, allowing you to practice independently.
• Videos: I often use YouTube channels to explain tricky concepts. These videos help reinforce lessons with visual aids and step-by-step demonstrations.
• Custom Worksheets: I create personalised worksheets and problem sets tailored to your specific needs to keep things interesting!
• Adaptable: If something isn't working for you, I'm approachable and flexible — I can adjust my approach to suit your unique learning style. After all, everyone learns differently, and finding what works best for YOU is the key to truly mastering maths.
