About Simon
- What kind of experience do you have? I have been tutoring since January 2008 and have worked with over 600 students in that time. The majority of these students have been GCSE and AS and A2 students. I have also worked in two schools as both an unqualified maths teacher and a one-to-one tutor. - Where and with whom did you train? University of Warwick (1996-2000) Cranfield University (2003-2004) - Tell me about some of your current students. I teach students from comprehensive, private and grammar schools. I also have experience in lesson planning as three of my students did not attend formal maths lessons (for differing reasons) so I had to design schemes of work for them. Favourite students... I really don't have any! But I always admire the ones who really try hard despite not really enjoying the subject or the ones who are really inquisitive about the subject.

Experienced, successful maths tutor, having had considerable success in helping pupils to pass the 11+ and attain the grades they want and need to access FE and HE. Tutoring is not like normal maths lessons. I expect you to work hard - you won't just sit back and listen to me for an hour. The more you do the more you will get out of our time together and the more you will enjoy them. Don't be afraid of making mistakes - it's all part of the learning process and please don't worry if you don't understand something straight away. It often takes time for our brains to make sense of new ideas, concepts and knowledge. I will try to explain things differently if you don't understand it first time and I am always very patient. - Which subject(s) do you teach? Mathematics and Statistics. From 11+ preparation through to A-level, including 13+, GCSE, IGCSE, IB, AS level, Further Maths, AEA and STEP. I have also worked with trainee teachers who are taking the QTS Skills Tests and I have helped trainee teachers access their course by helping them prepare for their equivalency tests. - Tell me about your qualifications. I have a Maths degree from the University of Warwick (2:1 MMath Hons obtained in 2000). This is a four-year course - essentially a BSc with an extra year added on at the end which allows students more scope to investigate a broader range of subjects or develop a deeper understanding of certain topics. I also hold a master's level qualification in Manufacturing from Cranfield University and a Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector qualification.

Simon is a very good tutor and his help has made me confident I can gain the A that I need at A level maths. If I cannot understand something he will explain it in a different way. There has been no topic he has failed to explain well.
Craig has found the maths support you provide very useful. He says the way you explain how to tackle new problems is normally clear. Access to your private sessions has given him more confidence and an opportunity to follow up areas he has found more challenging.
Andrew found his sessions really helpful and he understood things which had previously puzzled him. Would certainly use Simon again.
Simon is a very professional and reliable tutor. Our daughter seems to be responding very well to his teaching and we are very pleased with her progress. I would highly recommend Simon.
Simon has already made a great contribution and has helped James from the very first lesson. James looks forward to his lessons and is no longer daunted by the prospect of his A level. Thanks
Simon is both professional and personable and is tailoring the sessions according to specific problems that Charlotte is having with maths at school. After only 2 sessions, Charlotte is already feeling more confident, and feels able to ask questions without feeling 'stupid' (her comment). Excellent! I have no hesitation in recommending Simon for maths tuition.
