Why does my child need Private Maths Tuition?

With the current economic climate and jobs being increasingly more difficult to come by, it is imperative to give our children the best start in life that we can. Classroom sizes are a minimum of 30 and even the best teachers just do not have the time or resources to give pupils the individual attention that the subject can often require.

Private Maths Tuition is not only for pupils who are struggling though, I have some very able pupils on my books who are just looking to guarantee that elusive "A" grade as well as those who just want to understand Maths.

Do you teach Maths to people of all ages and all learning backgrounds?

Yes, I have experience in teaching Maths to the following:

- Maths for Children/ Young people attending school - I tutor Mathematics to pupils from Primary School (KS1 and KS2) to Secondary School (KS3 and KS4) including GCSE Level, as well as GCSE Statistics.

- Maths for Parents - I run sessions for parents who are nervous about helping their children with their Maths homework and would like to brush up on their basic Maths skills.

- GCSE Maths resits - I provide specialised Maths tuition for GCSE re-sits during the school day and have had several students from local colleges eg SEEVIC College.

- Home learners - I welcome children who are being home educated and can work alongside parents and children to ensure that the Maths they learn will be relevant and in line with their existing Iearning experience.

- AS Level Maths

I have some availability during the school day for AS Level students, Core 1, Core 2 and Core 3

- Maths for gifted children - I have additional experience in helping "gifted children" to make the most of their natural talents and am happy to work to challenge them above the levels set within the national curriculum.

- Maths for professional exams I have been able to help trainee engineers, trainee teachers and other professionals with the Maths areas of their various exams with great success and am available during the day for those studying for professional qualifications

- Online tuition - There is also an online tutorial service at "ask a maths question" where, for a small fee, I will give GCSE Maths model answers, explanations and demonstrations on video, to individual homework or coursework questions.

How much will it cost?

My Private Maths Tuition fees are £30 per hour for GCSE Level (KS3 and KS4) As Level Maths and GCSE Statistics and £25 per hour for Primary school level (KS1 and KS2). I can arrange for a group discount for pupils of the same school year In South East Essex who wish to be taught together.

Where do you teach the Maths lessons?

I teach in the early evenings from my home in Thundersley, near Benfleet in Essex and cover Rayleigh, Leigh, Benfleet, Basildon, Southend, Wickford and surrounding areas. My students come from schools such as King John School Thundersley, Applegate School Benfleet, Belfairs High School Southend, Fitzwimarc School Rayleigh, Sweyne Park School Rayleigh, Our Lady of Ransom Catholic Primary School Rayleigh, the Deanes School Thundersley etc .

Tuition in your own home is available in South East Essex for those pupils, who, for health or other personal reasons, are unable to attend school, at a cost of £30 per hour (plus travel expenses etc.) during school hours.

Parents, Do you worry about helping your child with their Maths homework?
Does it always end in tears?

I can help! I also run small informal Maths courses "Mums, Coffee, Cakes and Maths" during the school day from my home in Benfleet, Essex for parents/carers who want to be able to help their children with their Maths homework but find the whole subject too
intimidating.
Maths is taught so differently to how we used to learn it, with number bonds, bridging through 10 partitioning, chunking etc. What is this all about?
In small groups of up to 6 people, we chat through how Maths is taught today and help you to help your child. You can even bring your child's homework with you. The price is £10 per person per session for groups of up to 7 people (£15 per session for groups of 4 or less). Please contact me for the next available session dates and times.
