I believe that simply memorizing the relevant material for an exam is a totally inefficient way to learn. So I will be making sure that you know your Math inside out, forwards, backwards, sideways, and diagonally!

About

I'm an experienced teacher who can teach the British curriculum and Nigerian curriculum, I have taught children at nursery and primary stages.


As a qualified teacher I believe I have an extraordinary opportunity to assist and support children through their individual learning paths. I take this opportunity seriously because I understand that it can have a great impact on children's lives and on the type of society we are helping to create.

I’m committed to not only using my knowledge and skills in the classroom, but also and more importantly, to be an integral part of my student's development. This sincere interest in the pupils' personal growth has been my primary motivation when I teach my students

 I believe that a positive and confident attitude towards the academic subject being studied can be hugely beneficial in terms of results, and I try to engender this by providing a supportive yet challenging relationship and environment for study.


I think the most important quality in any tutor is patience. My first step is to perform an assessment of the student; this, along with a comparison of the student's academic goals, forms the basis of our lesson plan. I listen closely to the family's goals in order to tailor my approach specifically to that student.

I thoroughly enjoy tutoring each of the subjects I teach, and hope that I can transmit my enthusiasm and energy to my pupils.
