About Andy
I am 59 years old and have recently retired from the Computer Industry. I graduated from Warwick University in 1983 with a 1st in Maths and also gained an MSc in Maths from Warwick in 1984. I first worked as a Mathematician for Unilever but transferred to computing. Throughout my career I have enjoyed tutoring and running courses. I have recently been helping at local schools and tutoring GCSE Maths. I believe that to succeed in Maths you need some basic skills first and then practice and practice again. I also believe that like most things, maths is easier if it is fun.
I had this from a student last summer
"I would just like to say thank you for all of the time and help you've
given me over the past few weeks, I'm not lying when I say that it has
given me new confidence in maths, and I hope another grade. You were
patient and extremely beneficial; and without you my maths GCSE would
have been dangling by a thread- so thank you."

My teaching method is heavily focused on practice questions. I believe the key to improvement in mathematics is plenty of practice - seeing is believing! It is also important to have fun while studying mathematics as it is pretty abstract at times.

Andy is very methodical and explains all topics well. Always willing to help with any topic in the lessons. Not only improved my grades but also improved my confidence.
Andy helped me achieve an A* in Maths and Further Maths A Level. He is very easy to talk to and has a very good way of explaining maths. I would definitely recommend Andy.
I have known Andy for almost 40 years since we first met at Warwick University and we have stayed very good friends ever since. I have no doubt whatsoever that he would be an excellent tutor and mentor for mathematics students - using his online facility he gave my son a much needed confidence boost when he was struggling with his A-level exam revision
Andy has tutored both my sons; the eldest achieved a great GCSE result with the advice and support from Andy. The youngest one is currently having ongoing tutoring and this is delivered in such a way that he is gaining in confidence and understanding! I would not hesitate to recommend Andy to anyone seeking a tutor.
I've know Andy for ~40 years. Always turned to him to help with my understanding of the more convoluted maths in my engineering degree studies and most recently he helped my son via his web tutoring service to boost his confidence in preparing for his A-level Maths exams
I have known Andy since the early 1990's. He took early retirement in 2018 from his career working in blue-chip global companies. He has since established himself as a Maths Tutor, which he regards as his natural vocation.
Andy is married to a deputy headmistress and his daughter is Head of English at an Academy School in Bedford. Education is in their blood.
I commend Andy as a highly trustworthy and capable person and know that he would be highly regarded as a Maths Tutor should you enrol him on your site. He is highly competent to tutor to Degree level standard if necessary.
Kind regards
