Tutoring

About Me

 

Experienced mathematics teacher, Edexcel examiner, and private tutor, offering tailored one-to-one tuition for GCSE, IGCSE, A-Level, university entrance, and university-level mathematics.

​

With 28 years of teaching experience, I currently work at one of the best comprehensive schools in North London. As an Edexcel examiner for the past eight years, I have specialised in marking A-Level papers, including Further Mathematics.

 

In addition, I have been a dedicated volunteer with the United Kingdom Mathematics Trust (UKMT) for the last five years, supporting the development of mathematical talent across the country.

​

Alongside my school and examination work, I have provided private tuition for 13 years at one of the most successful tutoring centres in North London (Enfield, Southgate, Oakwood, and Barnet). My extensive experience allows me to support students of all abilities, helping them to build confidence, achieve top grades, and develop a deeper appreciation for mathematics

Mathematics degrees: what you’ll study and your career options

​

If you’re a talented mathematician, a maths degree can be a good option. The fact that there is a right answer to questions means that it’s possible to achieve high marks, most courses offer the chance as you progress to specialise in the areas that most interest you, and your skills will be useful in many careers. However, there are few careers for which a maths degree is essential and your grade is sometimes more important than your subject, so be wary of choosing this subject because you think it will make you more employable – especially if you are not a natural mathematician.

GCSE and A-level exams in all subjects to be available in autumn
​

GCSE and A-level pupils in England who are unhappy with their predicted grades this summer will be able to sit exams in all subjects in the autumn to try to improve their mark, the exams regulator has confirmed.
