Matt H.

I am a French native Civil Engineer in London, offering tutoring in French, Spanish, Mathematics and Physics. I hold a MEng in Civil Engineering (Hons) along with a French Baccalaureate ( equivalent of A-Level) in Sciences. I currently am open to teach students up to A-Level and also offer tutoring for engineering topics such as mechanics. I hold an MEng in Civil Engineering from City, University of London, obtained with a First Class. I specialise in topics related to engineering such as physics, structural mechanics, geotechnical engineering, electronics as well as a good knowledge and understanding of Mathematics.

About Me: Relatable & Expert GCSE Maths Tutor with a Double Master’s Background Hello! My name is Daphne Zhang, and I am a dedicated educator here to help you conquer GCSE Mathematics. My academic foundation is built on two Master’s degrees from prestigious Russell Group universities: an MA in TESOL from the University of Sheffield and an MA in Education from the University of York. However, my most valuable asset as a tutor isn't just my degrees—it’s my empathy. To be honest, I wasn't always a "Maths genius" as a child. I personally experienced the frustration, confusion, and "Maths anxiety" that many students feel today. Because I had to work hard to overcome my own struggles with the subject, I truly understand the mental hurdles you might be facing. This personal journey, combined with years of professional teaching experience, allows me to teach GCSE Mathematics (AQA, Edexcel, and OCR) with a unique perspective. I specialize in turning that "I can't do this" attitude into "I understand this now." My TESOL background further helps me deconstruct complex mathematical terminology into simple, everyday language, making even the most intimidating word problems feel manageable. What we will achieve together: • Build Real Confidence: We create a safe space where no question is "silly." I’ve been in your shoes, so I know exactly how to rebuild your self-belief. • Step-by-Step Clarity: I break down Algebra, Geometry, and Statistics into logical chunks that actually make sense. • Exam Success: By mastering exam techniques and past papers, we will work toward jumping 2–3 grade boundaries. I am not just here to help you pass an exam; I am here to show you that with the right support, anyone can master Mathematics. Let’s start this journey together! My Educational Journey & Professional Foundation My academic and professional foundation in the UK began at the University of York, where I earned my first MA in Education. Studying at one of the UK’s leading centers for pedagogical research provided me with a deep understanding of learning psychology and curriculum design. It was during my time at York that I officially began my career in mathematics instruction. I worked extensively as a GCSE Mathematics tutor, delivering both online and face-to-face sessions to local students. This hands-on experience was very helpful and meaningfull; it allowed me to apply educational theories directly to the classroom, helping students navigate the complexities of the AQA and Edexcel syllabi while building their confidence from the ground up. Following my success at York, I moved on to the University of Sheffield to pursue a second MA in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). While this might seem like a shift in focus, it was actually a strategic move to enhance my math teaching. At Sheffield, I specialized in applied linguistics and communicative strategies. This advanced training gave me the unique ability to "decode" the language of mathematics. I realized that many students struggle with GCSE Maths not because of the numbers, but because of the complex wording of the questions. My expertise from Sheffield allows me to bridge this linguistic gap, making abstract mathematical concepts accessible and clear for every learner. By combining the pedagogical mastery from York with the linguistic precision from Sheffield, I offer a sophisticated, dual-lens approach to tutoring. My background ensures that I don't just "show" students how to solve equations; I use evidence-based teaching methods to ensure they truly internalize the logic, leading to long-term academic success.

Hi! I’m Rey Johnson, and I believe math is the ultimate superpower. I specialize in taking those intimidating, 'impossible' theories and transforming them into exciting, real-world challenges. With a degree in Math Education and Licensed Professional Teacher, I don’t just teach formulas; I help students find their own path to the answer. My classroom is a high-energy space where we celebrate curiosity and empower every student to find their voice. Whether I’m deconstructing a complex equation or sharpening my own mind with a new logic game, I’m always searching for fresh ways to make math click. I’m on a mission to show the world that math is more than just logic—it’s a wonder. I can’t wait to dive in with you! I graduated with a degree in Mathematics Education, a foundation that serves as the bedrock for my decade-long career in academic excellence. My background integrates rigorous mathematical theory with advanced instructional design, allowing me to dismantle complex concepts and rebuild them for student success. I don’t just teach formulas; I engineer a supportive, high-impact environment where diverse learners transform into confident problem-solvers.

I studied Biology, chemistry and maths at A-levels. I have been tutoring for the past 6 years and my students always say that I have helped and encouraged their learning! I love to bake, cook, swim and run. Hi, my name is Dhruvi Kanadia and I am a final year dental student at the University of Birmingham! I'm really enthusiastic and I can't wait to teach you biology, chemistry and maths at GCSE. As an individual that has personally benefitted from tutoring, I understand the positive impact good tutoring has on students. I aim to develop confidence and inspire curiosity in the topics I tutor. I find interactive lessons most productive, as tutoring is 1-to-1, students can engage more and ask questions that they may have been afraid to ask in school. - As at A Level in Biology, Chemistry, Maths - 8 x Grade 9s in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Maths, Geography, English literature, French, Religious Studies - 2 x Grade 8s in English Language, Business Studies
