About Me

My name is Jamie. I'm a maths graduate from the University of Bath (MMath). I was a Maths Teacher and Key Stage 5 Coordinator at a well-known and very successful secondary school and sixth form in Bath.

I have been a Maths tutor on and off since I was in sixth form and have over 10 years’ experience across a variety of ages and abilities (as well as 5 years’ experience as a teacher). I'm fortunate that I discovered my passion for teaching and tutoring at a relatively young age, as I have already been able to guide many students at primary, secondary and sixth form level towards their goals.

I have now chosen to become a tutor full-time. It will be incredibly rewarding to continue sharing my knowledge and insights with any students who wish to learn. If I can pass on just a little bit of my infectious enthusiasm for the subject at the same time, then all the better!

I would like to keep my tutoring experience as varied and fulfilling as I possibly can, and so I welcome tutees of all levels from any background. Whether you are preparing for GCSE, A-level or University entrance exams, or just aiming to improve your general numeracy skills, it would be a privilege to give you the support that you need to make progress.

My Experience

Teaching experience

In total, I have over 10 years of experience tutoring. This would have started whilst I was in sixth form studying for my A-levels, continuing on and off through my time at University and during my career as a teacher. During this time, I have tutored students at primary, secondary and sixth form level, some being short term in the lead up to exams and others being longer term.

I also have 5 years’ experience as a teacher, and in my last year I was appointed Key Stage 5 Maths Coordinator for my school, giving me responsibility for all of our A-level students. During my teaching career, I was lucky enough to teach groups of all levels - from lower Year 7 right the way up to Year 13 Further Maths A-level.

My experience, both tutoring and teaching, has been invaluable in helping shape the tutor I strive to be going forwards.

Approach to tutoring

I believe a simple approach to tutoring is the best one. I aim to work closely with my tutees to identify their goals, and create a plan of action to follow to give them the very best chance of success. My experience will enable me to deliver high-quality lessons, and these can be supplemented with homework and independent tasks to consolidate knowledge and cement understanding between each visit.

Regular communication between tutee and tutor is key, and maintaining this with my tutees throughout their journey with me is one of my highest priorities. This way, we can celebrate successes and milestones towards our goal, but also intervene in good time if any part of our action plan needs adjusting. In the same way, I would always encourage tutees to approach me to share their thoughts on how things are going, so that I can continue with what's working and look into anything that needs amending.

I hope to hear from you!

Jamie
