About Harry

Hello!

I am an enthusiastic student of Maths with Statistics MSci with tutoring/teaching experience. I'm excited about exploring how to improve maths education and furthering this as a career.

I absolutely love maths and I truly believe that every single person can find joy in the perplexing puzzles and patterns of this subject. I am constantly reading, researching and talking to other maths teachers to find new ways of explaining concepts to students.

I currently do upper primary maths tutoring work 3 times a week at the 'Super Learner Club', a new after-school club in Bristol that supports and helps every child achieve their potential. I've also completed a four week maths secondary teaching internship at Salesian School, Chertsey this summer. As well as this I have done work experience as a teaching assistant in a primary school and volunteered as one in a children's theatre company.

I am patient and enjoy finding new ways to make maths fun and accessible to everyone.

About the lesson

Always start with a puzzle. This has served me well teaching from primary level to A-Level. The lesson should always start with a problem that draws the student in and gets them thinking. Really thinking. Playing around with numbers, concepts and different approaches is the corner stone of mathematical creativity. This is the base, from which, the rest of the lesson can flow from.

I would then move on to the key topic of the lesson. My general structure is to go over a small area of the topic, set the student a question, see how they do and give feedback before carrying on. Around halfway through the lesson I will then set the student a longer task or set of questions. Towards the end of the lesson we would then go over this exercise together, pull out the common mistakes and do one or two last problems, which would address these issues.

The crucial thing, for encouraging learning in maths, is to provide various ways of seeing or approaching a concept/problem. The moment a murky mathematical idea becomes clear and accessible to the student is the moment you've won. This is the importance of the puzzle at the beginning of the lesson. Making your mind twist itself round to different perspectives gives you a foundation that allows you to problem solve effectively and (hopefully!) a love of mathematics.
