Mathematics lessons in Colchester, UK.
/ Damidola F.
As an experienced tutor with expertise in mathematics, ICT, and computer science, I am dedicated to instilling confidence in my students. With a Masters degree in Computer Science, I bring legitimacy and professionalism to my tutoring practice
First and foremost an academic with a passion for tutoring and mentoring with over 4 years of experience deliver well structured, fun and engaging classes for my pupils to thrive in.
A bachelors degree in chemistry from the University of Liverpool.
I have been teaching in the classroon and online for over thirty years. It has been a great experience helping students with their studies. More recently I have been tutoring Maths to GCSE online for the National Tutoring Programme. It is always a most rewarding to find that my skills as a teacher can help students overcome certain difficulties they may be having with their maths. Teaching online gives me access to a whole wealth of wonderful resorces. This facility has proved invaluable and it is great to be able to pinpoint what learning materials might best suit a certain student. My apporach is energetic, brisk - and above all enthusiastic. When I finish lessons there is usually a great sense of achievement having been made and, to be quite honest, tutoring does not feel like a job at all. It is a pleasure to see students making progress. If you wish to share that journey with me, I look forward to hearing from you.
Mathematics and Economics lessons in Colchester, UK.
I have 5 years teaching experience in mathematics and physics. I also run a coaching and tuition agency in my hometown.
My sessions will be as student-led as possible, by this I mean I will always prioritize topics you want to focus on. We will discuss which topics you find most challenging and ones you feel most confident in and also look at how topics interlink with each other.
As well as topic content we will work on exam technique, we will look at how to approach a question, identifying the methods needed, and how to answer question in order to ensure you scoop up as many marks as possible.
In addition, we will explore the best learning style for you. I appreciate the last thing you feel like doing after a day at school or work is listen to a tutor talking, therefore I will make sessions as interactive as possible using a range of resources such as visuals, practical tasks or even a song to help remember those formulae!
As a secondary school teaching assistant, I attend GCSE maths lessons and provide support to students either 1-to-1 or in small groups. Outside of lessons, I work with students to further help them with particular topics they are struggling with. I have supported students on the verge of dropping maths completely to being well on their way to achieving a GCSE. From experience, the topics students find the trickiest are algebra, fractions and angels. I have developed a good understanding of what can make each topic difficult for a student. From interacting with different maths teachers and students, I have devised a range of strategies to develop a strong understanding of each topic.
I do not believe in the concept of being a ‘maths person’ or not. Every skill can be learnt with determination and the right support. My own journey in maths was not so smooth, I found it very difficult on starting secondary school but with a bit of extra work outside lessons, it became my favourite subject and I got an A* in my GCSE. I’m now starting a masters in Marine Science for which strong maths skills are essential. I hope to help those like me to develop confidence in maths and never feel that maths will hold them back from future opportunities.
I often hear it said that someone is either a ‘maths person’ or they are not, this is a belief that I disagree with and think that any skill can be learnt with determination and the right support. This is something I have learnt in my own experience as I admit my journey in maths was not always smooth. Nearing the end of primary, I was struggling a lot in maths and my teacher even said that ‘there was no helping me’. However, with a little extra work outside of lessons it soon became my favourite subject in secondary school and I went on to achieve an A* (now a 9) in my GCSE. Now I am due to start a masters in Marine Science, which I could not have done without strong maths skills. I wish to be able to help others, like me, to become confident in maths and never feel like their maths is going to hold them back from going for opportunities they want.
My passion and expertise lie in phonics and reading, it's my passion to teach children to read! Close second is writing, I love to help children realise their potential and unlocking their imagination in creative writing whilst meeting curriculum demands of spelling, punctuation and grammar.
With 5 plus years spotting and closing gaps in childrens mathematical knowledge I can confidently perforate children for the end of key stage assessments. I have years of experience of not only supporting children with additional learning needs but also helping them feel success and pride in their learning where ever they are.
