Thomas - Manchester tutor
Information About Thomas:
Personal Description:
I have chosen a career in teaching because I want young people to develop not just academically but also socially, morally and culturally, through dynamic, passionate and effective teaching. I believe that I am a good role model for young people and can inspire them to reach high targets and goals.
Teaching Experience:
I graduated with a an 2.2 Honours Degree in Aeronautical Engineering after studying for Four years at the University of Limerick, which I believe gives me a solid understanding of the subject. The advanced mathematics I studied allow me to challenge students to think outside the box and to always question before accepting in mathematics. I have good knowledge of KS3 and KS4 Mathematics which I want to teach to young people in a fun and energetic way. I finished the 1-year PGCE in 2007 attaining all the QTS standards. I have just recently passed my induction year as an NQT. I have spent approximately 3 years teaching in secondary schools around the Greater Manchester Borough which includes primary and sixth form experience.
Tutoring Approach:
The subject is often misunderstood and unreasonably feared, yet I believe it to be simpler and more logical than any language. I believe in building a solid foundation in understanding before moving onto more difficult concepts. My teaching methods are also tailored to the needs and abilities of each individual student where each student can be assessed on these grounds. I try to make the tutoring process as interesting and fun as possible but students are reminded that work is required on their part, to gain maximum benefits form each session.
