Mathematics is a difficult language for so many people but it's very easy to understand for me.

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.

Mathematics is a highly sought skill in any job or career. In my experience, the beginning of high school is when students decide if they love or hate maths; this is an important time to show them that it isn't that scary! Everything has a reason and, if you learn it right, can feel like cheating!

This class helps students learn how and why mathematics works the way it does, crushes their fear of complex equations or concepts, and instills a newfound confidence and appreciation. From learning how counting works to nailing your Higher maths exam, this class is tailored to the student!
Lessons are aimed at students in high school, however anyone outwith this who wants to learn about these topics is more than welcome!

Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics are foundational sciences that have profound potentials across various fields.
A very strong background knowledge in mathematics enables you to become expert in science theoretical foundations, problem solving, data analysis, cryptography, optimization and modelling and simulation.
In addition, Chemistry subject makes you to be outstanding in the fields of material development, pharmaceuticals, energy storage, food and agriculture and nanotechnolgy.
Finally, acquiring qualitative background in Physics enables you to become master in understanding the universe, technological invention, medical physics, energy solutions, materials science and quantum computing.

Get ready for the national or the Scottish qualifications: Physics, Chemistry and Math. From absolute zero to A-levels/highers (SQA, AQA and Edexcel)
My mission is to support your learning, help you to build confidence in the subject and promote your independent learning.

~ Boost your child's learning with my 1-1 lessons ~ I am a GTCS registered Primary Teacher and have created this class to provide tutoring for children in Primary 1 to S3 (Scotland). I will cover all areas of the Curriculum for Excellence based on each child's needs and areas for support.
I will use a range of teaching approaches including active learning and collaborative learning to support each learner and will tailor learning to meet their needs.
Throughout my time as a primary teacher, I have taught all areas of the curriculum but I have also focussed on Modern Languages and Social Subjects such as History.

I know GCSE is very scary, and feeling a little behind in class can feel like you are miles behind everyone else! I am here to help teach the foundations so the more complicated application of GCSE questions starts from a basis of clear understanding of the fundamentals!

I can start from any place: the beginning of your studies or help with the approaching months of exams!

I am a first year maths student at the University of Edinburgh. I have eleven GCSEs all grade 9 and four A*s in Maths, Further Maths, Physics, and Chemistry.

If you or your child want tutoring in GCSE or N5 Maths, Physics, or Chemistry, or if you want to work on some problem solving skills, I'll be glad to help.

I am offering one-on-one tutoring for A-Level and GCSE students during my postgraduate studies. I have two years of experience tutoring children and teenagers mathematics, 3 A*s in A-Level Maths, Further Maths and Economics as well as an undergraduate degree in Economics from the University of Cambridge. I have plenty of flexibility, particularly Sunday through to Wednesday.

For new students, I tend to begin by going though the relevant curriculum and identifying strengths and weaknesses. After that, I will tailor our lessons appropriately to suit your needs and situation. For example, students earlier in their studies may benefit from reinforcing concepts learned in class, while exam strategy and worked solutions could be more productive close to the exam.

Please do not hesitate to get in touch. Testimonials can be provided upon request!

Problem solving is a key transferable life skill applicable to all fields, especially Mathematics.It is important students master these foundations which act as building blocks supporting further progression in learning. I aim to help students build vital confidence enabling them to tackle any unseen problem thrown at them.This is particularly important when it comes to high-pressure and time-constraint examinations.

In this class, I will go through topics students struggle with, providing alternative approaches I have personally learned over the years. I will also teach useful exam techniques so that students can enter examinations confident and well-prepared. Once a concept has been covered, we will go through additional questions to reinforce understanding of the topic.

I am friendly and approachable former student who has picked up several tips and tricks over the years, excited to these with younger students. Having worked with kids before, I am confident in my ability to relate to the frustrations of tackling hard new concepts, and break things down in legible ways. Ultimately, I am motivated to inspire an excitement for problem-solving, like my own, and foster kids’ enthusiasm in maths.
