I am a gap year student, going to study Mathematics and Economics next year at university.
I have achieved 3 A*s in Maths, Further Maths and Economics.

Tutoring Experience

During my time in A-Level's, I tutored two sets of students GCSE maths at my school. All of my tutees achieved an 8/9 in their final exam.
I also tutor locally in person to a handful of students, they have found my approaches useful and my explanations clear and have stated they felt improvements even after their first lesson.

Tutoring Approach

As cliche as it sounds, I believe that practise is key.
In a session I will aim to quickly recap the previous topic covered with the student, ensuring this is still comfortable for them.
After I will move on to their new topic that I or they feel needs improvement, I will cover a few examples showing my thought process and workings, before guiding the student to answer similar questions with my help.
Once we have built a good level of confidence, we will move onto trickier questions and past paper examples to tackle the style that will be asked in an exam.
I will incorporate games with this such as, seeing how quick they can solve the questions and racing to answer them against myself.
Finally, I will set homework at the end of each lesson which the student can email to me for me to mark in my own time.
