About me

In my teaching philosophy, I firmly reject the notion that some individuals are inherently "not math people" or that science is beyond one's reach. With the right mindset and approach, we can conquer these subjects together. I ask for a minimum of 100% effort from you, and I promise to reciprocate that commitment by providing dedicated support.

For advanced-level students grappling with their chosen subjects, I emphasize consistency and a novel approach to learning. Together...

In my teaching philosophy, I firmly reject the notion that some individuals are inherently "not math people" or that science is beyond one's reach. With the right mindset and approach, we can conquer these subjects together. I ask for a minimum of 100% effort from you, and I promise to reciprocate that commitment by providing dedicated support.

For advanced-level students grappling with their chosen subjects, I emphasize consistency and a novel approach to learning. Together, we can unravel the complexities of mathematics and science, unlocking a deeper understanding of these subjects.

For those preparing for the 11+ or 12+ exams, I bring both personal experience and empathetic understanding to the table. Having successfully navigated these exams myself and tutored my younger brother through them, I am well-acquainted with the stress and challenges that students encounter. I am equipped to provide you with the right materials and guidance to excel in these crucial exams.

My motivation for tutoring extends beyond financial gain. I am driven by a genuine desire to see more young individuals in our community excel academically. Therefore, I am wholeheartedly committed to working tirelessly alongside you to ensure your educational success. Together, we can conquer your academic goals and unlock your true potential.

About my sessions

I prioritize creating an inclusive and respectful learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and expressing themselves freely. I firmly believe there are no "silly questions," as every inquiry is an opportunity for deeper understanding. This open atmosphere is essential for productive learning experiences.

I prioritize creating an inclusive and respectful learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and expressing themselves freely. I firmly believe there are no "silly questions," as every inquiry is an opportunity for deeper understanding. This open atmosphere is essential for productive learning experiences.

To cater to diverse learning styles, I adapt my teaching methods, employing techniques like visual aids, hands-on activities, and interactive discussions to keep students engaged and motivated. Regular assessments, including quizzes and assignments, help me gauge progress and customize lessons to address any gaps in comprehension.

Encouragement is a cornerstone of my teaching philosophy. I promote a growth mindset, emphasizing that challenges can be overcome with effort and perseverance. By celebrating small victories and helping students set and work towards achievable goals, I aim to build their confidence and motivation. Ultimately, my approach aims to foster not only academic success but also a lifelong passion for learning and self-improvement among my students.

Gilbert has been a fantastic tutor for A Level Geography. My son looks forward to his lessons and has made great progress. Gilbert has high expectations and sets him homework to complete which has really helped with his revision.
