John - Leeds tutor
Information About John:
Personal Description:
I have worked as a full-time self-employed mathematics tutor since 2012 providing one-to-one home tuition for hundreds of students of GCSE and IGCSE Mathematics, A-Level Mathematics and Further Mathematics, Sixth Term Examination Papers (STEP), and Mathematics Admissions Tests (MAT). I also provide help and support for adult and return-learners of mathematics.
I am very passionate about mathematics; I continue to develop my own knowledge and understanding of the subject so that I can be the best tutor that I can be for every one of the students that I tutor. I am particularly interested in the history and philosophy of mathematics as well as language learning and linguistics. I aim to pass on my enthusiasm for mathematics to those that I provide tuition for and to help all of my students achieve their true potential.
Teaching Experience:
I have thousands of hours of experience providing tuition for hundreds of students of mathematics and further mathematics for GCSE (including IGCSE), A-Level and Undergraduate Level. I have first-hand experience of providing tuition for Sixth Term Examination Papers (STEP), Advanced Extension Award in Mathematics (AEA) and Mathematics Admissions Tests (MAT). I have experience with tutoring for various exam boards including Edexcel, AQA, OCR and MEI.
I am pleased to have provided support for many students who have gone on to further study in Mathematics, Philosophy, Computer Science and other subjects at high-ranking universities including Oxford, Leeds, Warwick and Bath.
Tutoring Approach:
I am very flexible with my approach and pay close attention to the specific needs of each of the students with whom I work. I am able to explain concepts in detail, going beyond the strict requirements of the syllabus or specification where this is required and appropriate.
I am very patient and will take the time to carefully explain concepts and work at a pace that the students is comfortable with. I am always happy to provide clarification or to explain things in several ways to give different perspectives.
I enjoy working with people from all backgrounds to help them achieve and even exceed their expectations.
