Math/Programming classes (in English) for elementary to high school students

Van 18.99 € /h

I have a passion teaching maths and the art of problem solving (which is what maths is all about!) to students of all ages. I have a Masters in Mathematics, specialising in geometry, from the University of Edinburgh and while at university I gained a lot of experience in teaching elementary and middle school children through attending a math outreach club. After university I have also prepared secondary school (high school) students for their maths A levels.

I can teach maths of all levels up to first year university level. I specialise in teaching understanding and problem solving: I help students think about the core concepts of each topic of maths as well as the fundamental ideas used in general problem solving. The mastery of these two areas is what I believe to be what leads a student to academic success and it is what I strive to teach to them. Life is full of problems to be solved and school maths classes are quite lacking in the art of problem solving.

My teaching style is quite interactive and fun. Whenever I can, I give reasons for why a certain maths topic is useful in the real world to try and motivate what we are learning. I am very flexible and can adjust myself to the needs of parents and students. I can teach from a textbook (either mine or the students) or I can teach more freely - it is up to the student or parent. The homework I assign will mainly be to get the student to reflect on what they have learnt in the previous lesson. This is to help them understand and memorise the material better.

For online lessons, it would be very useful for the student to have tablet in order to communicate their writing to me.
