Jack B.

I have been tutoring for 10 years, teaching children both in-person at their homes and online! I always adapt my teaching methods to the student, focusing on their goals and the topics that they struggle most with. Due to my patience and open mind, I have had many successful students getting the grades they want for their exams. Alongside tutoring, I’m a full time Cheerleading and gymnastics coach. I work with children from the ages of 3-18+ in both schools and within my programme I attend Farringtons school for both primary and secondary school, in which I completed my GCSE/IGCSEs there, obtaining 7-9 in Maths, English, and Science. For sixth form, I completed the international baccalaureate diploma at Bexley Grammar school with the following grades: HL: Biology - 6 HL: Physics - 6 HL: Psychology - 7 SL: Maths - 7 SL: Spanish - 6 SL : English Lit & Performance - 6

I have been a tutor since early 2020, when I started this career choice alongside working in the NHS as a mature student nurse at the University of Sheffield. I later went on to make this my full-time career, and in this time have worked with over 300 students, both long term and short term, of all different ages. I have worked both through agencies, and privately, with most of my students being referred through word of mouth. I work primarily with children in Year 5 and 6 in maths, and also children who are preparing for their Grammar School 11+ exam. However, I cover maths, English and science up to Year 8 level, 11+ exam preparation, English as a second language (for adults and children), and home schooling for primary school children. I am a member of MENSA, and I have achieved this because I work very routinely and am able to break things down into step-by-step techniques. These techniques are passed on through my tutoring, especially in maths, and I have had great feedback and results from this. I am very passionate about my career, as I love to educate others, and I believe it is so important to be a good role model and inspiration to young people, to drive them towards wanting to achieving their goals in life. My background is in healthcare, where I studied at the University of Sheffield (Adult Nursing BMedSci). I have also studied Diagnostic Radiography (BSc) at Sheffield Hallam University. I have an Access to Higher Education certificate in Health Sciences where I gained a qualification which included A-Level standard Biology, Chemistry and Maths, and AS-Level Physics.

I am a final-year Economics student who teaches various levels of Maths, Economics and Business. My aim in tutoring my students is to build a connection and document their progress through various methods. I am very patient and adapt my teaching to different students. Some feedback given includes: "Aky conducts herself well professionally, is punctual and [my daughter] understands her teaching well." "Aky would be my son's long-term tutor". For GCSE's I have achieved an 8 in Maths and 7 in Business Studies. For A-Levels, I have achieved ABB (Business, Economics, Maths) and I have completed my first-year university course with a 2:1 achieving a 1st in many modules. I have been to a grammar school for secondary.
