Information About Nilam:

Personal Description:

I have been a maths teacher for 14 years now as well as being a curriculum leader and now a Head of Maths at a secondary school. I have taught in the UK and in Australia. I believe everyone can be successful in maths if given the right guidance. Every student I have tutored has met or exceeded the target grade they wished to achieve. References available upon request.

Teaching Experience:

In the UK I have worked at Canons High School and Queens Park Community School and now work at HATO. The vast majority of my students have shown good to outstanding progress. I currently work at HATO as a Director of Maths & as a Specialist Leader of Maths Education for Canons Park Teaching School Alliance.

Tutoring Approach:

My tutoring sessions are very personalised to the student. I use a variety of diagnostic tools during the first 3-5 sessions to learn about the gaps in the tutees maths knowledge. I am also very aware that low confidence is often a barrier to maths learning. I embed a variety of engaging tasks and teaching strategies that promote confidence as well as retention. This usually leads to very good results. I also provide access to an online platform that ensures your learning continues between sessions. My focus is unapologetically on you, the tutee and ensuring that I alter my teaching to ensure you understand. I also take a holistic approach, looking at what your other study commitments are, and support you to manage your time, and coach your mindset and help hone your metacognitive strategies for success.
