Présentation
Hi, I’m Joe. I started ChildFirst Education a few years ago after nearly 10 years of experience in education. After my PGCE in 2008 I worked in an inner London Primary School for three years before leaving. What concerned me most was the levels of stress on children, families and staff.

I re-trained as a Play-Therapist and started working with children and families more holistically in their homes as a home-school tutor, after-school tutor and/or mentor for a variety of reasons.

I have home-schooled a children aged between 8-14 and tutored children/worked with families across London/Kent focussing on school entrance exams (Alleyns, Putney High, Dulwich College, Colfe’s), 13+, 11+, 7+, confidence, self-esteem and a range of other issues.

I have worked with children and families from all over the world with autism, down syndrome, dyslexia, ADD, auditory processing, emotional/behavioral difficulties, epilepsy and selective mutism.

EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFY MATHS TEACHER (HEAD OF MATHS)

I have great experience teaching and tutoring Maths and French in the UK and abroad.
I am able to teach mathematics up to GCSE level.
I have been teaching maths to GCSE standard for five years now. I know exactly what is included in the new GCSE specifications. My role as an assistant Head of maths department has definitely given me the opportunity to write schemes of learning for year 11. As a result, I know how to break down topics in order to help your child to meet or exceed their targets.

Some success stories

Student A
This is a young girl that had grade 2 before I started tutoring her. I helped her building her confidence, showed her exam tips, how to revise and more importantly how marks are allocated for every questions. She was really happy when she opened her GCSE letter and realised that she got 4.

Student B
This lovely year 11 boy was a grade 5 student in maths, after working really hard with him, doing exam papers every week, giving him challenged questions he did extremely well and achieved a grade 7 maths. His grade then allowed him to confirm his place in a Grammar school in Kent.
I am also trained to teach/tutor mathematics using mathematics mastery. This is a program designed to help students conceptualise and understand the reason why we are studying mathematics. This program follows a CPA approach (Concrete Pictorial Abstract). For every topic that I teach/tutor, I always bring maths alive by taking real life examples. These help students understand the concept. For instance: Calculating with negative numbers is a topic that most student find difficult in maths. even those that get it might not be able to explain the reason why -4 + 8 = 4.
when teaching this topic, I like using oyster cards, bank account or the weather as an example. `if I have -4 pound in my oyster card what does it mean? ` Now I top up 8 pounds what will my new balance be? This was just an example of how to link mathematics to real life situations.

I can teach/tutor students with different abilities this include higher, middle and lower set.
It is never too late to start, if you are looking for someone that can help your child achieve or exceed their target grade do not hesitate to get in contact with me.

Thank you

My name is Younes and I am a qualified English teacher and a French instructor who lives in the UK.
I love working with adults and children of all ages, which allows me to help them reach their full potential.
I am currently teaching in London at my own college. I have been teaching and preparing students for the last 12 years. I taught many French and English classes such as ESOL, ESL, or Functional Skills. Most of these exams are based in England however I have also thought TOEIC to prepare French students for all of these exams.
I use different software to teach such as Zoom or Skype.
I use different resources (such as PDF and Word documents) for my classes. I also have a virtual whiteboard available.
A typical session with me takes between 1h30 minutes to 2 hours.
I like helping students that are between A1 to B2 levels however my main goal is to help students to become advanced or fluent.
I would be happy to adapt to any student based on your objective, of course.
One of my main goals is to support your vocabulary and grammar.
What really made me unique is that I was in the same position as you and today I have become fluent.
If you have any questions, you could contact me and I would be glad to have a conversation with you.
See you soon.
