I worked as a consultant for most of my career and then retrained to teach Mathematics from 11 to 18. For the past 8 years, I have worked in schools and a 6th Form College, and am very familiar with the demands of A level, GCSE and IB Diploma Mathematics. I work with students to help them improve their basic maths skills and to interpret exam questions accurately, so that they can maximise their marks. I have a wide variety of materials available that I can draw upon to assist with learning.

Yes. This was last renewed in September 2015.

Janet taught both my daughters over a period of several months, one at GCSE level and one at IB Standard level. She was very thorough and systematic, provided them a wealth of material and above all, tailored her teaching to their specific (and very different) needs. My daughters liked and respected her.
Best of all, they both achieved their desired results. I can wholeheartedly recommend Janet.

Janet was patient and understanding at all times as my daughter had been previously struggling with maths. Under Janet's direction she became more confident to the point where she enjoyed maths and was able to tackle more challenging areas. Above all Janet is a caring tutor who went the extra mile!

I would really recommend Janet as a maths tutor. My daughter was predicted a GCSE level 3 - 4 when she first started with Janet at the beginning of Year 11. Janet was very patience and supportive, helping her understand the subject so much more, and also gave her confidence in her own ability.
Janet is an absolutely amazing tutor. Starting with just a grade 6 in GCSE maths, she gave me the confidence to really apply myself and believe in my own mathematical ability which made me improve significantly, even outperforming my peers who achieved a lot higher at GCSE.
I'm now going to study an interdisciplinary Mathematics degree, which I would've never seen myself doing 2 years ago, but Janet gave me the confidence to be able to do so.
If I had been able to sit the exam, there's no doubt that her help would've helped me achieve a grade higher than my calculated outcome, but that's just it - Janet as a tutor will help you every step of the way to help you achieve what you need and want to progress.
I couldn't give a higher recommendation.My daughter chose Janet and was lucky to benefit from her many years' experience as a Maths Teacher in secondary schools. Janet helped my daughter find new approaches to difficult topics, she broke the curriculum down into manageable chunks, she focussed on actual GCSE papers, and above all she boosted her confidence to the point that she was predicted a grade 8.

Janet teaching is very clear and very well planned. My daughter hated Maths and by working with Janet and her support and patience she turned to love it!
A real success.
I would strongly recomend Janet as a tutor, she is worth every penny!Janet teaching is very clear and very well planned. My daughter hated Maths and by working with Janet and her support and patience she turned to love it!
A real success.
I would strongly recomend Janet as a tutor, she is worth every penny!My daughter started having maths lessons with Janet once a week for GCSE maths last october. She was struggling at her school as her maths teacher was not good, however once she started having lessons with Janet, her levels started to improve after a few months . In 2018 I also asked Janet if she could help my daughter with her Physics and Chemistry as well as Maths, and Janet was more than happy to help. She was a very patient and flexible person, and more importantly a great tutor. I would highly recommend her as a maths and science tutor.
Before she met Janet my daughter, N, did not believe she could do maths. Janet showed her how and made her believe in herself. N even enjoyed her lessons! Janet is obviously a teacher with huge experience and it shows. Thank you Janet
I was really pleased to find Janet, and would recommend her because the tuition she provided to my daughter was exactly what she needed to succeed in her A'level maths exams.
Always reliable, Janet is a great Maths tutor, she knows her subject well and was very good at transferring this complex knowledge in a simple & understandable way. With Janet's reassurance my daughter grew more and more confident with each lesson.
With Janet's help my daughter achieved the A'level result she needed to secure her place at a great university to continue her studies in a mathematical related degree subject.Janet is an exceptional maths tutor. Our daughter went from a struggling C grade to an A in just five months of weekly tutoring from Janet. Not only did our daughter's understanding of maths improve but so did her confidence. We cannot recommend Janet highly enough.
I spent the majority of Year 12 struggling with C1 and C2 so I got in contact with Janet for tutoring before my AS exams. I'm so glad I did as she was extremely beneficial for my understanding and for acting as support when I needed motivation.
Not only is she an extremely supportive and useful tutor but she is a very nice person making our sessions all the more enjoyable. She's also been very understanding when it comes to planning lessons and has been very accommodating when problems come up and sessions need to be rearranged.
I couldn't recommend her more. If it wasn't for Janet I would have continued to dislike Maths and wouldn't have achieved the grades I needed. Due to her positive impact on my Maths in general, I've kept her as a tutor as I continue my Maths studies in Year 13 and she continues to be extremely helpful.She has been teaching my son for long, very through in teaching, make sure the student understand the lesson, bring up a lot of ideas how to improve.....
Janet tutored both of my daughters last academic year. My elder daughter was taking the IB Diploma and needed to improve her grade in Mathematics. Janet helped her achieve an excellent mark (a high 6, nearly a 7) and increased her confidence in this subject. Janet also helped my younger daughter achieve an A* at GCSE.
I was new to the country and needed to obtain grade A in GCSE Maths for my Uni entry requirements. I wouldn't have got it without Janet's help.
