Information About Stephen:


Personal Description:

A proactive, supportive, and enthusiasticMathematics teacher/lecturer who is committed to the welfare, safeguarding and promotion of students. Possesses good confidence and enthusiasm for teaching as well as extensive experience teaching mathematics at different levels in UK ranging from Functional Skills, GCSE, A level mathematics, Key stage 3 and 4.
Diligent, conscientious and results driven withproven experience and confidence in working with students from all backgrounds. Diplomatic, organised and accustomed to working under time pressure whilst maintaining a pleasant disposition. With B.Eng. in Civil Engineering and PGCE Mathematics in Post Compulsory Education.



Teaching Experience:

I have taught maths in a secondary school in Nigeria during my national youth service. The school had their best exam result in 1989 when I was their maths teacher. It was quite a daunting task considering the fact that the final year students had no maths teacher. I had to strive to fill the knowledge gaps and get them ready for the exam.

Since 2011, I worked with agencies as a supply teacher. After completing my PGCE in 2017, I have taught at John Colet school in Aylesbury, Bedford College, Campion school in Northampton and Manshead school in Dunstable.



Tutoring Approach:

I believe that each child is gifted. This gift is best activated when the child is taught in his prefered learning method. Tutoring achieves this better than a classroom environment. In 2015, I was sent to a school to tutor a year 11 student who has been away from school for months due to illness. After about three months intensive tutoring, the knowledge gaps were filled and he came out with A* in his maths.
