Obtaining a good grade in A-Level/GCSE Mathematics is necessary to have a strong chance at attending an elite university in the UK however this can be hard to achieve through independent study and revision textbooks. My role as your A-Level/GCSE Mathematics tutor is to shore up misunderstandings in your knowledge, teach and contextualise new content through questions and position you in a direction to succeed in your upcoming exams.
I have achieved an A* in A level Mathematics and a 9 in GCSE and have attended one of the most prestigious sixth forms in the country for mathematics, Kings math's school and have the knowledge and tools to assist you in your academic journey.

At KS3 level, students will undergo crucial foundational learning that forms the basis for their understanding of more advanced mathematical concepts. I employ interactive and engaging teaching methods to ensure that students grasp fundamental mathematical principles with confidence and clarity.

For KS4 students, I focus on preparing them for their GCSE examinations with targeted instruction and rigorous practice. I'm well-versed in the requirements of various exam boards and adept at guiding students through the syllabus effectively, whether it be AQA, Edexcel, OCR, or any other board.

Do you or your children think why should the Mathematics even be studied? What if I told you, everything around you from AI to economics has hidden Mathematics behind it, even the device your are currently reading this on can only work because of Mathematics. Therefore, it becomes crucial that your child relates to seemingly abstract concepts and understands why it is important to study them.

Given my real-life research experience and an advanced degree in applied mathematics, I can provide just that: real-world applicable examples of different mathematical concepts to keep the students engaged and interested in the subject matter. This practical approach not only enhances comprehension but also fosters a deeper appreciation for the relevance of mathematics in everyday life.

For instance, a simple concept like of percentages can be explained by relating it to expenses and the pocket money. Even seemingly daunting topics like Trigonometry and Differential Equations become accessible and exciting when I would explain how they are applied in sustaining not one or two but four different trillion-dollar industries.

Another example where students will be able to relate to with seemingly abstract concepts would be understanding the role of linear algebra in developing modern technology such as smartphones, GPS systems, and some firefighting equipment.

I make mathematics relatable, enjoyable, and comprehensible by offering numerous examples that demonstrate its practical significance. Whether your aspirations lie in sports, science, or medicine, mathematics is an indispensable tool, and my aim is to make the learning experience enjoyable and rewarding for every student.
