Robert - Hornsey tutor
Information About Robert:
Personal Description:
I am third year Maths student at UCL, currently hoping to move into professional research following my degree. As such I have a fairly broad knowledge of Maths and Physics, as well as first hand experience of the university entrance procedure; I am aware of what is important for potential students in the sciences, and can tailor my tutoring to this end if necessary. I am available for both Mathematics and Further Mathematics A-level.
Teaching Experience:
I have tutored several successful students over the past couple of years at A-level standard, and have benefited from the 'mutual tutoring' during my time at university.
Tutoring Approach:
For me, tutoring is not a formal process in the same sense teaching is; Conversation and examples are what I consider to be at the heart of successful tutoring. Any given session would ideally be divided into three parts; a review of the problems posed by the student the previous week (i.e problems they have been unable to solve which they have emailed to m during the week so I can prepare a solution if necessary), followed by a look at the current taught material and homeworks posed by the students school/college. While I will point the student in the right direction with their homework, I will, of course, not complete it for them, or furnish them with my own solution until it has been handed in. Finally, a few small problems may be set to ensure the student has understood the more advanced material covered that may be slightly more advanced than the material provided by the school/college.
