Eslam M
Qualified teacher who enjoys tutoring maths and chemistry Maths
My motto is simple, nothing is hard, either we know or we don't. Practice is the key to excellence. I have a Bachelor of Science, specializing in Chemistry, and have a PGDE from the University of Edinburgh. Here is what I do. I don’t just teach mathematics and chemistry; I teach you how to understand the subject. I explain the topics in a very simple way for you to understand, I follow with an example, then I ask you a simple question to see how you think. I do try to prove the subject easy, I try to prove to you that you are capable of doing it. It is you’re your answers that tells me what to ...

Make Maths Fun ! GCSE Maths Tutor.
I am 64 and have spent most of my working life caring for children and young people. My education in Maths went up to Degree level at Sheffield University. My experience of tutoring is informal and relies on my interpersonal skills with young people. I take a person centred approach developed when achieving a Certificate in Counselling to address issues identified by the student. I believe everyone can do Maths and my approach to those who struggle is to identify their blocks with students and to install the confidence to overcome them. Once a student becomes familiar, comfortable and flexible...

Callum A
Callum has been working with our son now for a couple of weeks to help identify gaps and support him with his GCSE maths. Our son is already growing in confidence and is benefiting hugely from Callum’s support with going over his class work. Callum is very knowledgeable and has quickly identified areas Chester needs to work on. He is helpful and supportive and Callum understands what needs to be covered to help Chester achieve in higher Maths GCSE.

Richard V
Richard has helped my daughter a great deal with confidence and 1:1 tutorials going at A Level. What I liked as a parent was that he surfaced gaps in knowledge and where the school had not covered certain aspects, so my daughter was able to laser in on these. He also offered additional advice and notes so we had a good working relationship, suggesting questions. Often my daughter would highlight troublesome questions in advance then they would work through them. Richard has been responsive to messages and questions and proactive when necessary. He was a bit of a random pick but weare please we did and would recommend to others!

He feels comfortable asking questions and has gained confidence during the lessons. Heena is also very kind, patient, and understanding, especially when unexpected situations came up on our side. We really appreciate her support and would highly recommend her as a tutor.

Sakin I
Sakin is an amazing tutor. I’ve had a few tutors before but her approach to teaching and helping me understand is different and much more helpful. We started from the very foundations of math, quickly progressing to complex A-level topics within a short timeframe thanks to her. When i’m confused or unsure about a question, she goes through it step by step making sure I understand every step, a lot of back and forth until it makes sense - which in my experience is something other tutors lacked significantly. If you are considering Sakin as a tutor for yourself or someone you know then do not hesitate, I would 100% recommend her.
