Dynamic and motivated teacher of 33 years (Graduate of EDHEC, Scientific Baccalaureate with honors, 2 years of preparatory class EC scientific option and 5 years of experience in private home-based courses), I propose courses and intensive reviews in Mathematics all levels and all sections until the Terminale.

Control of achievements, awareness of a practical methodology by writing cards, intensive training in solving typical exercises.

Make room for practice rather than theory in order to optimize the time spent together in solving typical exercises requiring a method (noted together on a form with the course associated with it). The goal is to react in the best way possible to a statement.

I specialise in tutoring math, I assign homework after the lesson. End of every month I give assessment to check the students progress. The lesson will be very productive and helpful for the students and will make sure they understand the content of the subject.

I've completed my GCSEs a little over a year ago , I'm on here to fund myself in the future (primarily university) .
I've averaged above an A (above grade 7) overall with recent experience and am still attending sixth form . Because of this I'll be able to easily relate to and figure out the needs of my tutee as I was in their position not too long ago .
I myself studied based on topic rather than necessarily textbooks , this means that I can make due with any textbook or other material (this accounts for difference in exam boards).
I can teach a concept from the ground up , or to solidify knowledge on topics as well as teach the basic principles for understanding the topic in the first place . I'm especially good at understanding and taking advantage of mark schemes to maximise grades , despite if the topic is completely unbeknownst to you . Though this seems minor , this tactic means you'll almost never score zero marks on a question . Ergo : if you can do half of the questions on a 100 mark test you'll get around 50 marks (high C to low B grade , grade 5 to 6) however even without understanding the rest it's easy to get at least another 15 marks up to around 25 (you usually cannot get over half marks without getting close to the answer , which is why half the remaining marks is a typical maximum) putting your grade up to to a minimum of a strong B or a maximum of a solid A (min of a grade 6 and max of grade 8) all of which requires minimal work which you won't forget . In English a similar thing can be done with punctuation , so long as you use a type of punctuation once ; you can score easy additional marks and get more marks on other criteria due to the examiner's bias . This is my forté .

Hi! I'm Maiah, currently a university student studying Economics and Finance. My journey with mathematics started back in secondary school, where GCSE Maths was my absolute favourite subject—it sparked a passion that has stayed with me ever since. I went on to study Mathematics at A-Level, deepening my understanding and love for the subject. Now, I'm excited to share that passion and knowledge with others.

I have a solid grasp of the Edexcel GCSE Maths specification, which I use as a foundation in my tutoring sessions. While I may not have formal teaching experience, I have significant experience working with young people. I'm currently hosting a tuition program for my niece, who is preparing to move into Key Stage 4. She requires additional help and support in school, so I’ve been tailoring my approach to ensure she builds confidence and excels in her studies. This hands-on experience has taught me how to engage and support students with varying needs, and I’m eager to apply these skills in helping others.

In my tutoring sessions, I focus on making complex mathematical concepts accessible and understandable. I’m well-versed in common textbooks like the CGP revision guides, and I can help students navigate the curriculum effectively. Whether you’re preparing for a specific exam or need general support with GCSE Maths, I’m here to help.

Mathematics is the science and study of quality, structure, space, and change. Mathematicians seek out patterns, formulate new conjectures, and establish truth by rigorous deduction from appropriately chosen axioms and definitions.
Basic math skills are those that involve making calculations of amounts, sizes or other measurements. Core concepts like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division provide a foundation for learning and using more advanced math concepts.
Learners develop knowledge, understanding and skills that will enable them to apply mathematical ideas and strategies in real-life situations. These include managing finances, statistics, data and probability, geometry and measurement.
Math is alse use in Real life.Some of the most common applications of mathematical expertise in the modern world are in business, finance, and engineering.

This course offers an in-depth exploration of biology, focusing on general biology principles, cell biology, and molecular biology. Students will gain foundational knowledge of cellular structures, biochemical processes, and genetic mechanisms that underpin all living organisms. Topics include cell anatomy, cellular metabolism, gene expression, and molecular techniques essential for modern biology research.
With a Ph.D. in Biology and extensive experience as a Research Associate at King’s College London, I bring advanced expertise in molecular biology, cell biology, and analytical techniques. My background includes research on molecular mechanisms in leukemia and other diseases, as well as teaching roles in molecular and cell biology. I have also developed and instructed laboratory courses, equipping students with practical and theoretical knowledge. This class will engage students through lectures, discussions, and hands-on lab activities, building a strong foundation for advanced studies in biology.

I am a tutor with 7+ years of experience teaching at a variety of levels. I teach English Language, English Literature, ESOL (English for speakers of other languages), Maths, and Creative Writing. I have taught students both in person and remotely, planning lessons using virtual presentations, activities and resources both in the UK and abroad.

I believe the most successful results come from fostering a friendship with my students, and providing constant encouragement and support in their areas of interest. I pride myself on being an attentive listener and carefully adapt to the specific needs of my students, which is particularly helpful for my SEN and ESOL pupils. I have previously volunteered as a mentor with charities such as Al Muntaha Tutoring and Debate Mate, providing mentorship, relevant advice, and support to young people. At the beginning of every lesson I also do short icebreaker activities and challenges with my students, using a points reward system to keep them engaged. Previous students have gone on to become the top of their class and receive recognition at school for both English and Maths.

Lessons start at 1 hour in length. Lessons are structured according to the needs of the student; this can be working alongside their class syllabus to support them with progress at school, tackling an area or subject they are specifically struggling with, or helping them prepare for national exams such as GCSEs. I currently teach Maths from Key Stage 1 to Key Stage 3 level.

I provide feedback after every lesson and detailed progress reports every six months for each student.

I primarily offer online lessons as I have found this works well for me and my students, but in some cases I do teach face-to-face depending on location and availability within London.

Please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have - I look forward to speaking with you soon!
