What makes my maths tutoring so effective?

My approach is based upon my experience as a pupil at secondary school; what were the reasons why some topics just went over my head? What could the teachers have done differently that would have enabled me and others to comfortably follow what was going on during classes?

  • I focus on the understanding of concepts.
  • Students feel comfortable in my presence.
  • I stretch students’ thinking.
  • I promote good habits.
  • I instil confidence and belief.
  • I set homework after every session.
  • Continually testing previous topics.
My personal experience with Steve was amazing, he is very friendly and supportive. I made such good progress in a short amount of time, we focused on topics that I wasn't confident in and his teaching and patients allowed me to succeed. I went from a grade 5 to a grade 8 in GSCE maths, I would highly recommend Steve to anyone looking to improve in maths.

THE PROBLEM
In my experience, pupils who struggle in mathematics suffer from not having a sound foundation in the core maths topics. This can lead to a lack of confidence and could result in anxiety and a genuine fear of mathematics.

THE REMEDY
Anyone can become competent in Secondary school level mathematics; the secret is to ensure all students have a sound foundation. The emphasis in my tutoring, is to ensure all students develop this core foundation.

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT
Regular exercise of an activity or skill is the way to become proficient. This is achieved via homework, in-class exercises and past exam questions.


A list of core topics:

Times-Tables Fractions Percentages Ratio Algebra Shapes Changing-The-Subject Numbers Linear-Graphs Circle-properties Pythagoras

Your First lesson
The initial goal for any maths student is to ensure they have the basic foundation at their respective level. With this in mind, the first lesson seeks to discover if there are any obvious holes in their knowledge.

A plan of action is then devised to be delivered on subsequent lessons. Once the foundation is secure, we then steadily build their knowledge and confidence to arrive at the expected level to successfully pass their respective test or exams.

Since the pandemic, all my tutoring has moved online. I have used a few different platforms, but I now use The Lesson Space. It has great tools, reliable connection and is free for students.
