Matthew - Edinburgh tutor






Information About Matthew:


Personal Description:

I am a third year Mathematics student at The University of Edinburgh and I will be graduating at the end of this year. I am very interested in taking my teaching career further after I graduate, and I see this as an excellent opportunity to gain further experience, and provide quality tutoring to ensure the success of the tutee. In addition I also provide University tuition but for 1st year students only. And I provide couching for the Oxford Cambridge OCR Mathematics STEP entrance examination papers for July 2008



Teaching Experience:

I have relevant Mathematics experiance through helping out 1st year economics students at my university.



Tutoring Approach:

First and foremost, I am determined to ensure the Tutee has fully understood all the main concepts required to ensure success for exams at School/College.

I feel firstly it's important to find out the progress and the standard of the Tutee to ensure I'm not explaining things that is already known. But more importantly, the things which the Tutee is struggling with. My main approach begins usually by explaining a lot of concepts in broad strokes to begin with by using appropriate analogies, this is followed by some examples. I will usually set questions after and check that the Tutee understands my teaching.

I also provide relevent teaching aids such as revision guilds and past papers.
