Silena Kuyumdzhieva
Hello, my name is Silena and let me tell you a bit about myself. I am an extremely ambitious, passionate and an outgoing individual always determined to get involved in new challenges and accept new opportunities. I’m currently in my final year at the University of Liverpool, studying Accounting and Finance, in hopes of achieving a first class degree. I love to get involved in different clubs like for examples I did synchronised swimming for 3 years, placing 5th at nationals, as well as earning gold and silver medals at different competitions. Currently, I am a member of my university cheerleading team, which has been an amazing, new experience allowing me to try something completely different and out of my comfort zone, as it is rather different from synchro as well as dance which I did for 10 years. I also have been trying to start up knitting during lockdown but it’s proven to be harder than I expected; so it’s still a work in progress. I’m also a huge believer in helping the community. I've been volunteering at my local nursing home and hospital for a total of 2 years during sixth form, which was an extremely rewarding experience. Why do I want to be a tutor? In my Chemistry Subject Champion role at sixth form, entailing teaching students the subject, I realised my passion for teaching and guiding others. As a student who experienced similar struggles during my exams and underwent tutoring, l’m able to significantly relate to young students, with regards to the pressures and stresses they experience. Moreover, as a synchronised swimmer for my local club, Hythe Aqua, I had responsibilities to teach the younger swimmers in preparation for national competitions and figure assessments. Despite, the difficulties when teaching younger pupils, due to lack of concentration and consistent interruptions, I developed a sense of patience when managing situations under pressure alongside commanding attention, in turn adapting my communication styles to the specific age groups. As someone who is able to relate to the experiences of balancing 12 subjects and has completing my GCSEs successful signified by achieving mostly A*s and As, I have the expertise to provide the necessary assistance and guidance. It is crucial for students to establish a close and trusting relationship with their tutors in order to feel entirely comfortable and fully engage with the session. I’d describe myself as a friendly, caring individual who is able to provide the support for every student to reach their full potential and achieve success in their studies.

Usman Sabir
I am an experienced Mathematics & Computer Science tutor. With my last cohort of students, I witnessed exponential improvements with students fluency and confidence. I have over three years experience in teaching. I have extensive teaching experience with students aged 5 – 18 and I have helped students to obtain the highest grades at KS1 – KS3 & GCSE. I can also provide coaching for career related advice and support with college and university applications. I hold an Enhanced DBS Certificate. As well as using published materials, I provide bespoke materials for students based on examination questions so that they are able to develop their mathematical or computer science fluency and problem-solving skills. At the end of each session, students receive detailed notes of work covered, either in Word, PowerPoint or Microsoft Whiteboard format. I aim to make my sessions engaging, bringing in interactive elements and whiteboards as much as possible especially for my younger students in order to create a simulated, real-life fun experience with each hour.

What to expect on the KS3 Maths exams

Students are awarded a grade of A* - E on their KS3 Maths exam. We’re going to provide you with some sample questions of what your kid can expect on the various KS3 Maths exams as taken from past papers used in England.

KS3 Maths exam questions - Year 7

Here are some example questions of what a Year 7 KS3 Maths exam could include:

  • Identify which numbers (from a set provided) round to 350 to the nearest ten

  • Mark on a line where a fraction’s position lies (i.e. 8/10)

  • Write down a large number that is given in words in figures

  • Using given equations to work out the value of “y”

KS3 Maths exam questions - Year 8

Here are some example questions of what a Year 8 KS3 Maths exam could include:

  • Working out coordinates on a graph

  • Working out the ratios of two sets of shapes to each other

  • Converting pounds (e.g. £300) into another currency based on the exchange rate provided

  • Working out the probability of an outcome of coins being flipped (e.g. two coins landing on tails)

KS3 Maths exam questions - Year 9

Here are some example questions of what a Year 9 KS3 Maths exam could include:

  • Working out percentages from a given statement (e.g. If John scored 31 out of 35 on his Year 9 KS3 exam, what percentage did John get correct?)

  • Working out the volume of a cylinder from a diagram with two measurements provided

  • Finding the lowest common multiple of two numbers provided

Are the KS3 Maths lessons important?

Yes, KS3 Maths lessons are hugely important for your child. There are a number of reasons for this but somewhere at the top of the list is the fact that KS3 Maths is the foundation for KS4 Maths, which is also compulsory. If your child struggles with KS3 Maths, they will find the next level even more difficult and it will keep getting harder to catch up.

Even if KS3 Maths is not your child’s favourite area to study, Maths is an important subject because many universities favour it if your child does want to go on to higher education. It’s important to keep the options open for your child even if they have no clue at this stage what career path to take. Acing KS3 Maths lessons and future Maths classes at school will give your child an advantage.

Apart from the future benefits, KS3 Maths lessons teach valuable skills that we end up using into our adulthood, and your kid will too. OK, some of the content isn’t as relevant as other areas and a bit trickier to put into practice but at this stage, much of the material can be applied in real life (e.g. working out the best deal, adjusting the quantities in a recipe, or quickly converting currency in your brain).

How to help your child with KS3 Maths revision

You can get as creative and colourful as you like with KS3 Maths revision. Repetition will help your child out enormously. Here are some suggestions to keep your kid motivated and in the habit of doing regular KS3 Maths revision.

Make posters with key information from KS3 Maths lessons

This may not be the styling you’re looking for at home but keeping visual references around the house (or at least their room) keeps things fresh in their mind. This works best for any equations, functions, or values they need to know off by heart.

Find KS3 Maths lessons on video

If your child is finding some of the KS3 Maths concepts challenging (and there will be at least a few) then give in to screentime. You’ll find short explanatory videos online for most KS3 Maths topics. Often, having someone explain it in a slightly different way or more slowly than in class will give your kid the lightning bolt moment they need.

Go over practice KS3 Maths exams

Going over past or sample KS3 Maths exams will not only prepare your child for the stress of the day but also identify any gaps in knowledge. If there’s a type of question they keep getting wrong, it’s time to focus on that. Sometimes, your kid may feel like they understand a KS3 Maths concept but when it comes to putting it into action, there is a bit missing.

Call in KS3 Maths private tuition

Calling in KS3 Maths private tuition is like calling in positive enforcement. Private KS3 Maths tutoring isn’t just for when times get tough. At this level, many parents start enlisting the help of a Private KS3 Maths tutor so it helps get their kids on the front foot.

KS3 Maths online tutoring is also about nurturing your kid’s confidence. We find that many pupils at this age are hesitant to speak up in class and ask all of the questions they really have. Asking a private KS3 Maths tutor takes away this dread and any worry about peers (or even their teacher) thinking they’re silly or laughing at them.

KS3 Maths online tutoring or in-person?

KS3 Maths online tutoring offers a safe barrier for your child to feel safe asking questions even if they feel they are stupid (of course, as adults we know there is no such thing as a stupid question but kids still feel embarrassed). A KS3 Maths online tutor can provide support from what is seen as a safe distance for the student.
