Maths for english-speaking students, aimed at the Brevet and Baccalaureate in France, and the GCSE and A-Levels for UK exams.

I taught Maths for ten years in both private preparatory schools, and secondary schools (in Surrey and Somerset.) I also successfully ran, for six years, my own private maths tuition business in Guildford. I have a First-Class Degree in Mathematics/Economics from the University of Surrey.

Maths is a subject that, often, students of any age are simply afraid of. Building confidence in a student that they do have the ability (and everyone does) is absolutely vital. To this end, tailoring what and how I teach to the needs of the individual is really important. It is also a subject that, sometimes, needs to be explained in very different ways to different students. For example, one student will understand algebra in a very theoretical way, others relate better to a "real-life" comparison. You have to be very flexible in your ideas and approaches as a Maths teacher, and that's something that I have always prided myself on being able to do.

Reviews (1)

Stephen is a wonderful teacher who knew exactly how to help my son who was struggling with maths in the French school system. It was great to hear them both laughing through the whole lesson, which my son described afterwards as "really not bad at all" - high praise indeed from a 15 year old mathsophobe.

Calculus and Linear Algebra (High School and University Level)
Hi! Welcome! I am a Master's student at the University of Groningen in the Netherlands. I offer private tutoring (for high school and/or university-level students) so you can understand the fundamental concept and excel in your studies. I have teaching experience of 4+ years in Physics and Mathematics to both high school and university-level students. This class aims to provide an overview of calculus and linear algebra and focuses on the fundamental mathematical tools and concepts such as limits, differentiation, and integration. Building on these basic concepts, we will review methods for solving problems related to optimization, linear differential equations, and matrix algebra. Outline of the course: 1. Calculus: 1.1 Limits of functions 1.2 Continuity, types of discontinuities, intermediate value theorem 1.3 Differentiation (or derivative), slope, secant, tangent 1.4 Rules and theorems for differentiation, power rule, product rule, chain rule 1.5 Derivatives of exp, log, and trigonometric functions 1.6 Implicit differentiation and derivative of inverse functions 1.7 Rolle's theorem, mean value theorem, critical point, maximum/minimum of a function 1.8 First and second derivative tests, inflection points 1.9 Anti-derivative, indefinite integral, integration by substitution, integration by parts 1.10 Definite integral and its application (area between curves, application in physics)\ 1.11 Optimization and linear differential equations 2. Linear Algebra: 2.1 Vectors and scalars in Euclidean space, vector arithmetic, scalar product, cross product 2.2 Equations for lines and planes, vector spaces, linear independence, span, basis, dimension 2.3 Linear transformations, coordinates, and representation of linear transformations by matrices 2.4 Matrix operations: matrix multiplication, transpose, determinant, inverse, and Hermitian conjugate 2.5 Systems of linear equations, Gaussian elimination 2.6 Eigenvalues and eigenvectors 2.7 Range, kernel, and rank-nullity theorem and many more... *Note that the sessions will be held online (via Skype/Zoom/Microsoft Teams).

Mathematics classes forundergraduate and postgraduate students
I help students understand the basics of math. Once they understand these basics, they can easily learn more advanced topics. I enjoy working with children and supporting them in these fundamental areas. After teaching a topic, I give short quizzes to check understanding and help students with any difficulties. I also communicate with parents as needed. Regular evaluations are used to improve student performance. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me.

Vicki
Primary Tutoring - Maths, Reading Creative Writing, Entrance Exam Preparation.
I am a fully qualified primary school teacher based in Falkirk with over 15 years of experience particularly in the upper primary level. If your child needs additional input in English or Maths to help them reinforce their classroom learning or if they are looking to extend themselves to work at Third Level in preparation for High School or Entrance Exams, then I am here to help. After our initial ‘get to know you’ session, I will build a program of learning that will support your child in all identified areas, helping them to feel more confident with concepts or skills they have found tricky to master as well as challenge them to reach their full potential moving towards higher level learning. My goal is to create supportive and engaging session where students feel motivated to explore, make mistakes in a safe environment and ultimately, experience success, helping to boost their confidence in any classroom or examination setting. Mathematics is often seen as a problem area for many students and their ‘tricky’ subject. With every student that identifies this as an area for development, my focus is on building a strong foundation in maths reinforcing key concepts, using key problem-solving strategies as well as developing critical thinking skills. Through the use of real-world, tangible examples, I will help students develop a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts and how they can be applied in their own lives. This work will be followed up with targeted areas for further practice, consolidation and/or additional challenge. During my writing sessions, I will guide students in developing their practical writing skills, i.e. grammar, sentence structure, punctuation, and organisation of points/plot. Whilst encouraging creativity throughout, I will ensure there are multiple opportunities for students to express themselves through various writing genres. We will also work on editing and reviewing with feedback sessions built in to help consolidate the techniques introduced. I strongly believe that reading is the key to unlocking a whole world of knowledge and imagination. In my reading sessions, I will focus on developing essential skills such as phonics, fluency, comprehension, and vocab. Through a variety of activities, including reading aloud, guided reading, discussion and analysis, I will help students improve their reading abilities, expand their literary horizons, and hopefully, foster a lifelong love for books. I look forward to working with you.
