I am a secondary school mathematics teacher, examiner and one to one tutor. Whilst teaching - in the classroom and online - I identified a growing need for complementary additional support for learners alongside their formal education. Mathemaxioms offers students high quality, interactive and personal online mathematics tuition in a safe learning environment.
My teaching philosophy is that students need to be active in their learning to build their confidence and understanding of mathematics. By allowing them to make mistakes, guide them through the process of identifying where they have gone wrong and learn how to correct themselves, students are then able to independently approach new problems with self-reliance.
I have taught secondary mathematics in the UK, Kuwait and Malaysia for over 7 years. My formal qualifications include a BSc Hons in Mathematics, PGCE in Secondary Mathematics and Qualified Teacher Status.
I have experience of teaching Edexcel GCSE, IGCSE and A-Level, Cambridge International IGCSE and A Level and the International Baccalaureate AIS and AIH courses. I am an examiner for Edexcel and Cambridge International and mark both the IGCSE and A Level papers.
During my teaching career I specialised in working with students of lower ability and those with learning support needs. I am passionate about mathematics and seeing students transform in their confidence, enjoyment and fulfilling their mathematical potential.
Through discussion and observation we will identify particular areas of weakness. We will explore these concepts, building upon the student’s knowledge to improve their mathematical fluency.
I take student safeguarding very seriously. I hold a current DBS certificate and regularly complete online safeguarding training.
