Information About Rakhi:

Personal Description:

While my fees may be high I'm an avid believer of the phrase you get what you pay for.

I am an enthusiastic and motivated individual who has a commitment to teaching. I have successfully completed a Mathematics PGCE in secondary teaching and worked at a prestigious outstanding school for a large period of time. My current focus is solely on private tuition and has been the case for several years. I have engaged in online tuition for many years and this has been a resounding success due to my investment into electronic resources and hardware which facilitates fantastic learning. I have an iPad, state of the art visualiser and laptop.

My hourly rates may be higher than my competitors but you receive what you pay for. I have experience in marking examination scripts so I have experience from all angles. This adds a further dimension to the quality of tuition received which increases the likelihood of success.

I enjoy skiing, travelling, indo-boarding and keeping fit. I am friendly and I get on well a wide range of people. I like challenging myself and I enjoy helping people. I have a full UK driving licence and I have my own transport.

I have full DBS checks starting from July 2012 to present. My most recent DBS check is dated 9th October 2019.

Teaching Experience:

I have fully qualified teaching status in Secondary Mathematics. I have five years' classroom experience and have branched off into my own business of private tuition. I tutor for some high profile clients where confidentiality has been key.

The new difficulty of the mathematics GCSE means that a highly competent tutor is essential. The composition of maths GCSE questions means that students are tested not only on their ability to understand a concept, apply it to an abstract situation and use a combination of concepts in order to solve a single question. I am the educator who can successfully help your child to develop their skills as well as exam based application.

I understand the need to be flexible within my teaching and adaptable to the individual needs to every child. I incorporate this into my teaching practice on a daily basis. I keep up to date with the cutting edge developments within education and I have developed lessons so that they are robust and effective for every student.

My skype lessons are highly successful due to the technology that I have invested in. This means that there is no hindrance to lessons despite being done online. The visualiser I have purchased means that skype lessons are just as effective as face to face ones.

I have privately taught an extensive number of pupils over the last few years. This has ranged from several A level pupils, several GCSE pupils and a handful of primary school pupils. I have also taught university students in Economics. I have taught both male and female students from varying ages.

My students notice a difference in their progress within a very short amount of time because I genuinely care about helping them to get the most out of their potential. Languages students experience a rapid increase in a matter of weeks in terms of both spoken and written work. All mathematics students feel more confident in understanding and applying concepts and developing their skills. All of my Economics' students have seen particularly quick progression in terms of analytical and evaluation skills.

I am a hard working and conscientious tutor - I take my work very seriously and I am committed to helping students perform exceptionally well. I place a great deal of emphasis on organisation of resources and I use colour and imaginative anecdotes in order to make the material stick in the brain.

Overall - I can help with routine homework, assignments, exam preparation, more focused revision, improving memory and making subjects fun and relatable!

I can also help with PGCE skills tests in both numeracy and literacy!

Tutoring Approach:

I plan things and I like to identify a student's weaknesses so that I can help them to kick the demons and enjoy a subject in a way they never have done before. I know that consolidating the foundation of any subject is essential and means that a student can develop at a phenomenal rate. I also know that it's important not to overload students with too much information so I make things manageable which means progress tends to noticeable.
