About Rachel
Hi there! I am originally from Galway, Ireland and I moved to London in 2014 to teach Maths. I have been teaching Maths in an Ofsted Rated Outstanding secondary school in South West London since 2014 and I absolutely love teaching! I have experience teaching across all three key stages. With KS3 & KS4, I’ve taught many students ranging in ability. With KS5, I’ve taught Pure maths to Years 12 and 13.
During this time, I am available for online tutoring only. I am really keen to help current GCSE students who want to carry on with Maths at A-Level. I will recap important skills from GCSE and introduce them to new A-Level content.
I am extremely patient and enthusiastic about Maths, so if you want to be challenged and prepare for next years exams I am here to help. Likewise, if you have previously struggled with Maths, now is a good time to catch up on your areas of weakness in order to prepare when school returns again.
My approach to teaching is a belief that every student can achieve their full potential in Maths and my main focus is building confidence and resilience with students that have difficulty in Maths. I also work with students who need to be challenged further and are aiming for Grade 8/9 at GCSE, or A/A* at A-Level. I am extremely patient, kind, good humoured and tend to build excellent rapport with students in a short period of time.
With exam year groups, my slogan is that "every mark matters" when it comes to exams. When teaching students at GCSE & A-Level, the examples I work through will be model answers to exam questions, highlighting each important step of working in order to gain marks. I believe that having exemplar model answers and notes are an excellent revision tool to have in the run up to the exams so I will encourage students to have a "Model Answer Notebook" for our sessions.
Before the tutoring begins, I provide a free phone consultation to discuss what we would like to achieve during the Maths sessions, thus ensuring the sessions are tailor made to suit the needs of every student.
