My Teaching Approach
Personalised Learning
Every student learns differently. I adapt my teaching style to match how you learn best, whether that's through visual explanations, hands-on coding, or theoretical discussion.
Exam-Focused Preparation
As an OCR examiner, I know exactly what examiners look for. I'll teach you the techniques and approaches that maximise your marks.
Building Real Understanding
Rather than memorisation, I focus on helping you truly understand concepts so you can apply them confidently in any situation.
Practical Programming Skills
Computer Science is a practical subject. We'll write real code together and build projects that reinforce your learning.
Maths You Can See
In Maths we use visual models, such as bar models, balance scales and graphs you can move, so methods make sense. Diagnostic questions show exactly which misconception is holding you back, then we practise exam-style questions until it sticks.
