Professionally
I have always had a flair for Mathematics teaching and an empathy for those who struggle with the basic concepts and this translated into my professional life where I was a financial trader in the City for over 10 years, before progressing into a mathematically based training role. For the next 5 years I was involved in training some very senior people in the banking industry and it never ceased to amaze me how many people seemed to have an innate fear of Maths and the number of people who commented on my ability to simplify fairly complex mathematical concepts was very flattering.
 
This gave me a passion for catching and helping people to conquer this fear from an early age.  I am constantly finding that, with many of my students, their struggles with Maths has been with their confidence levels rather than their actual ability.Our one-to-one method of tailoring all maths lessons to the individual pupils' requirements and abilities enables us to build up their confidence gradually as we work at their own speed.


​Personally

I stopped working in the city when I became pregnant with my first child and I now have 2 teenagers, one of whom is now a tutor here. I have been tutoring Maths privately for 15 years and additionally offer one-to-one tuition in schools.
As a team, we have students from Primary to GCSE and A level, as well as teachers studying for the QTS numeracy test, adults studying for their Functional Skills Level 1,2 and3 and Skype/Facetime/zoom lessons both in the UK and overseas.

Qualifications

ACI Diploma obtained with Distinction as well as Maths & Economics A levels, Pure Maths and Statistics AO levels and various O levels. I hold an Enhanced DBS and receive regular child safeguarding training
​
First Aid

I am a first year medicine student studying at UEA.

I achieved A or A*  in Maths, Chemistry and Biology at A level. I was also a prefect during my time at
6th form which helped me develop my communication and leadership skills.

Before joining the team at Sue Comber Maths Tutors, I had previously tutored at a company that specialised in 11+ exams and had also tutored in School for the new GCSE curriculum.
 
Being with Sue Comber Maths has helped me appreciate the importance of one-to-one tutoring as it is adaptable to suit the needs of the student and our teaching style is very unique in doing so.

With my extensive experience I am highly qualified as I have the teaching skills to ensure my students learn the concepts and understand the topic in thorough detail.

I enjoy sharing my love of Maths as it is an essential part of life and love to see the dawn of understanding in my student’s eyes.

As a person who was once in their position, I understand the motivation they need and am pleased to be able to build their confidence.

I am currently in my second year of A levels, studying  Maths, Chemistry and Spanish, having excelled at Maths at GCSE.
As well as tutoring for Sue Comber Maths tutors, I also have experience in working in a primary school as well as tutoring in my lower school.
I love helping and guiding others and hope to continue this on my journey to becoming a teacher myself.

I know that half the battle is gaining the students' trust and working together to ensure the they understand the basic concepts as we encourage them to be more confident within themselves.
In secondary school, I was a prefect, as well as currently being a Year 13 prefect, and I was also an Academic Supporter, helping others struggling with homework and helping strengthen their confidence.
Furthermore, I am a Young Leader within the Girl Guiding industry, and I thoroughly enjoy working with children.

paths

I have a Bachelors Degree in Aerospace Engineering from Bristol University and will be beginning a Masters Degree in Autonomous Vehicle Dynamics and Control next year.

I achieved an A* in Maths and an A in Further Maths at A level.

Since a young age I have always enjoyed rising above challenges set out for me in education and from my own experiences I understand that mathematics can be challenging to master. With this in mind my aim is to understand the way a student learns and tailor the teaching accordingly.
Apart from my experience in tutoring for this company, I have had experience in teaching students in a range of subjects such as basic/advanced topics on UAVs at the Bristol University Drone Society and all theory topics in the Air training corps classification program.

I believe that I can help any willing student to improve in Mathematics no matter their starting ability or background.

I find that with our male students in
particular we are able to build a rapport that they have never had before with their other teachers or tutors and this helps to motivate them and win the battle .

Alongside my studies I have performed many leadership, teaching and training roles in both schools, and that, coupled with a love of Maths, have enabled me to tutor here with enthusiasm and empathy.

Having excelled in my 3 A levels (including an A grade in Maths) I am now taking a gap year to volunteer in medical services and am then going to study medicine at University next year.

I’ve been a prefect for both my Secondary and 6th form schools,  which has given me a variety of leadership responsibilities.

My previous tutoring experience was as an assistant tutor in a local classroom based UK franchise but left there as I firmly believe that a child struggling to understand Maths under classroom conditions at school, needs one-to-one tuition rather than just computer-based classroom tutoring.

At school I have also supported the  KS3 and GCSE students
 to develop and strengthen their Maths as well as their confidence and self esteem.
 
I strongly believe that good mathematical skills are invaluable for life and build a strong foundation on which to face the future. I love helping my students to  open their mind and realise their potential in this field.

​I am a second year university student having achieved an A grade at AS Maths as an external candidate studying independently.

I have always had a passion for Maths and when I finished my GCSE's, I felt that it was as important to exercise my brain as well as my body, and so I decided   to take my AS level in Mathematics as an external candidate even though it wasn't necessary for my UCAS points

In Maths classes at secondary school, I was always the person my classmates would come to for help in Maths if they were struggling, and would do one to one maths sessions with them in the library after school or at lunch breaks and I absolutely loved it!

I was tutored myself by the team at " Sue Comber Maths Tutors " and feel that I have grown up here and know the ethos and teaching style so well.

I love teaching Maths as it is such an important subject for young people to learn and helps them strengthen their creativity and problem solving.

Having excelled in my  4 A levels (including an A grade in Maths) I am now studying medicine at University. I plan to be a future doctor.

I was a prefect at my sixth form and continue to serve my community in various ways thereby developing my leadership and communication skills. 

I have previously tutored at a company that specialised in 11+ tutoring and have also tutored in School for the new 9-1 GCSE Maths curriculum. My experience in teaching has given me the skills to ensure that my students grasp the concepts and thoroughly understand the Maths being taught.

In my experience I have seen the disadvantages of computer based group tuiton and firmly believe that one-to-one tutoring is the very best method to ensure that the needs of the individual student are met.

I enjoy the logic and structure of Maths and believe that it is an essential part of life and enjoy sharing my passion with my students. As a person who was once in their position I am relateable and can understand  their needs and in doing so build their confidence and trust.
