Number and algebra
Fractions, percentages, negative numbers, expressions, equations and factorisation can be revisited at the appropriate depth. Each step should have a reason, not just a rule.
MATHEMATICS · SCHOOL & IGCSE
From early algebra to examination questions, online maths tutoring focused on understanding methods, communicating solutions and developing confidence without skipping the foundations.
THE LEARNING APPROACH
Many maths difficulties begin one or two ideas earlier than the question on the page. A student may know a formula but be unsure when it applies, or perform an operation without understanding what it means. I look for that missing connection and rebuild it through clear examples.
My approach adjusts to the learner's stage, whether that means securing arithmetic and fractions, making sense of equations, interpreting graphs, or preparing for IGCSE-style extended problems. Rather than racing through a worksheet, we aim to make a method reliable across unfamiliar questions.
WHAT WE CAN WORK ON
Topic selection follows the learner's actual course, level and starting point.
Fractions, percentages, negative numbers, expressions, equations and factorisation can be revisited at the appropriate depth. Each step should have a reason, not just a rule.
Translate between a relationship, its table and its graph. Build the habit of checking units, slopes, intercepts and what a result means in context.
Work with angle relationships, shapes, scale, perimeter, area and volume; develop a consistent way to set out diagrams and justify conclusions.
Understand how to read data, use probability sensibly, select an approach and present solutions clearly. Timed practice is introduced only when the underlying method is secure.
HOW A SESSION WORKS
Sessions can be private, paired or small-group when the learners are suitably matched. Frequency and programme length are agreed personally; financial quotations remain private.
Start with a few carefully chosen examples to see whether the obstacle is knowledge, fluency, language or confidence.
Connect the problem to a concept, solve together, then explain why the same reasoning works for another example.
Move from familiar questions to mixed or examination-style problems and agree on short practice between lessons.
QUESTIONS FAMILIES ASK
Yes, subject to a good fit. We identify the prerequisite concepts rather than simply increasing the number of difficult questions.
Yes. Share the student's syllabus, tier or paper requirements where relevant so the material and level are matched correctly.
A year group, recent topics, and one or two examples of questions that caused difficulty are usually enough to make an initial conversation productive.
START WITH A CONVERSATION
Share the subject, year or university module, curriculum and one goal. For a school-age learner, a parent or guardian should make contact. I'll help you understand the next step and provide a personal quote when the fit is clear.
