Experienced Tutor | Undergraduate in Mathematics and Philosophy

My name is Will and I am a student at the University of York. I am currently studying a BSc Mathematics and Philosophy (equal). I would describe myself as very patient, confident and approachable person with a passion for allowing people to reach their potential. I am extremely hard-working and will do anything to make sure I do the best job that I can. Last year I taught 2 students, one GCSE and one A-Level, both maths. Both were very successful and found that my tutoring improved their overall grade. See further for my teaching style: Experience has taught me that the best approach is to always be patient. I let the student dictate the pace of learning, taking more time on topics that are more of struggle for the student. I am extremely hard-working and organising making sure that the student is clear about the progress in their learning. I would usually start a session figuring out the topic the student like to work in then progressing with the main teaching part. Obviously all students learn different ways with some people being more visual learners and some auditory. As such, I have a wide range of techniques to make sure that the student gets the most from the sessions. These range from, worked examples of questions, to a step by step method of how to answer a question, as well as past papers with written model solutions. I would say that I am a very creative person which allows me to adapt my teaching style when the opportunity calls for it. Getting close to the exam period I will try to give techniques to apply during exams as well as how to come with stress or pressure during this time. Finally I have set my prices significantly much lower than other tutors out there. I live by the philosophy that price shouldn't be a barrier in somebody achieving their potential. I hope the prices seem fair for the service that I offer.
