Methodology

In previous tutoring lessons, I usually just focused on topic areas that the students told me they found more difficult or whichever topic they had covered last in class. I'm happy to follow the same structure or go through the syllabus methodically and cover it all chapter by chapter. Each student learns differently and I adapt my style as needed in order to tailor the sessions to suit individual needs.

Usually, my classes begin with a brief consolidation from the last session to make sure there are no gaps and they understood everything so far. Then I'll go on to explaining the new material, using textbooks or other resources to help demonstrate my points. At the end I'll probably throw in a few questions to check they've grasped what we've covered. My classrooms have a friendly and quite relaxed atmosphere and I encourage lots of questions as it's one of the best ways to build confidence and improve knowledge.

I'm also happy to collate end of topic tests and point students towards additional resources if they'd like to do some self study, or mark any questions or past papers they’ve done so far.
