I graduated with bachelor and master’s degree in Engineering from The University of Manchester, I am also a fully qualified secondary school teacher specialised in Mathematics with "Outstanding" PGCE certificate from Liverpool Hope University. I’m able to teach Mathematics from primary school to degree level. I offer relaxed, friendly and tailored lessons individually or in small groups. I relate complex concepts and fundamental laws to simple, well-established "prior knowledge" and popular daily applications, building my students' understanding little by little in a suitable pace reaching full in-depth understanding. I am very supportive of the conceptual understanding of Mathematics and have taught part of the Mastery curriculum in Liverpool College in the beginning of my career, I also employ a variety of instructional techniques, encourage the use of technology such as “GeoGebra” & “Desmos”, also concrete objects like The Oxford University “Cuisenaire rods” are used with younger tutees to deepen their knowledge; this plethora of teaching approaches have a positive impact on my students’ understanding and outcomes. My students are challenged appropriately, provided with homework so they apply their knowledge independently. Students are not afraid of making mistakes as misconceptions and misunderstandings are taken as golden opportunities for effective teaching and learning. I am very patient and enjoy helping pupils to learn, my students have fun while they study and are always proud of their progress. I do my best to encourage a genuine interest in topics taught, the ultimate reward for me is to see my students confidently attempting questions and becoming a logical, systematic and critical mathematical thinkers.
