Still accepting Higher Maths & Nat5 Maths pupils for this year's exams
I am a fully qualified Maths teacher with full PVG / Disclosure registration. My qualifications include a Bachelor's degree (Maths), Masters degree (Logistics) and a PGDE (teaching). I enjoy teaching all levels and abilities. My track record has proven success for my tutees and this latest academic year has been the most successful yet with all my pupils achieving their desired grades.

I'm in my 40s and have a friendly yet professional approach to my tutoring.

Tutoring Experience

Nothing beats 1:1 tuition (online or in-person) for improving an individual's confidence and ability.

I have successfully tutored Maths all my life, ranging from Primary 6 (Curriculum for Excellence) through to college/university courses.

I have taught in High Schools across Stirling and Falkirk councils but have found the satisfaction provided by giving 1:1 tuition much more fulfilling.

Small group tutoring is also great but with Maths in particular, sometimes it's just a lack of confidence holding a pupil back and that's when pupils benefit most from 1:1.

I offer a discounted rate for Small Group Tutoring.
I may also offer a discounted rate if the pupil is able to be tutored during the week 9am-3pm.

Online tuition is my preferred option as I find my pupils are more relaxed in the comfort and familiarity of their own home. Most of my current pupils opt for videocalls through WhatsApp, Teams, Google Classroom or GoogleMeet. Happy to discuss options ☺️

Tutoring Approach

I aim to be super-friendly to my tutees but stress the importance of hard-work if they are to reach their potential in Maths. I am methodical and organised, ensuring I provide the best possible assistance to meet the success criteria for every individual.

Recently, the vast majority of my pupils have opted for online tuition.
