About Ms Ada

I am a fully qualified Maths Teacher (PGCE, QTS) and PhD mathematics educator, specialising in helping secondary students develop their understanding, confidence and exam technique in GCSE Maths.

Mathematics can sometimes become a source of anxiety or frustration, particularly when gaps in understanding begin to build. My approach goes beyond memorising formulas or practising procedures. I help students understand the mathematics behind the method so they can approach unfamiliar questions with greater confidence.

Whether a student is struggling with core concepts, working towards a secure pass or aiming for the higher GCSE grades, I adapt my teaching to their individual starting point, learning needs and goals.

SEND & Neurodiversity Support

As a qualified teacher, I understand that students learn and process mathematics in different ways. I use clear explanations, visual representations, carefully scaffolded examples and step-by-step modelling to make abstract mathematical concepts more accessible.

Where appropriate, I adapt the pace, level of support and presentation of mathematics to suit the individual learner, while maintaining high expectations and encouraging increasing independence.

My aim is not simply to help students get the right answer. I want them to understand why a method works, recognise when to use it and develop the confidence to apply their knowledge independently in GCSE examinations.

By combining strong subject knowledge, professional teaching experience and an adaptive approach, I aim to help students become more confident mathematicians and approach their GCSE examinations feeling prepared and capable.

Personalised GCSE Maths Tuition

Every student is different, so lessons are tailored to their current level, target grade, exam board and individual areas for improvement. I support students preparing for AQA, Edexcel and OCR GCSE Mathematics, at both Foundation and Higher Tier.

Identify the gaps: We begin by identifying misconceptions and areas of weakness so lesson time is focused where it can make the greatest difference.

Understand, not just memorise: I break difficult topics such as algebra, geometry, trigonometry and statistics into clear, manageable steps. Where appropriate, I use visual representations and a Concrete–Pictorial–Abstract approach to help students understand the mathematics before moving to more abstract questions.

I Do – We Do – You Do: I first model a method clearly, then we work through examples together before the student applies the method independently. Support is gradually reduced as confidence and understanding develop.

GCSE exam technique: Students practise carefully selected exam-style and past-paper questions and learn how to interpret questions, show clear working, avoid common mistakes and gain method marks on multi-step problems.

SEND and individual learning needs: Lessons can be adapted through clear explanations, visual modelling, scaffolded questions, additional processing time and carefully structured practice. The aim is to make mathematics accessible without lowering expectations.

Regular checks for understanding: I use questioning and short diagnostic tasks throughout lessons to identify misconceptions early rather than allowing them to become embedded.

First lesson: The first session is free. We discuss the student's current working level, target grade, exam board and areas of difficulty, identify priority areas for improvement and begin planning the most effective way forward.

My aim is for students to leave lessons not only knowing what to do, but understanding why the mathematics works and becoming increasingly confident solving problems independently.

Details

What is included in the lesson fee?

Lessons are personalised to your child’s current level, target grade and GCSE exam board (Edexcel, AQA or OCR).

Personalised lessons: I identify gaps in knowledge and common misconceptions, then plan lessons to build understanding, confidence and exam fluency.

GCSE exam technique: Students learn how to approach exam questions, show clear working, avoid common mistakes and maximise method marks.

Targeted practice: Lessons include carefully selected GCSE questions, past-paper practice and visual explanations appropriate to the student’s level.

Feedback and progress: Students receive feedback on their work, with clear guidance on what they need to improve next.

Free first 30 minutes: An initial consultation and diagnostic assessment to discuss the student’s current level, target grade, exam board and areas requiring support.

Lesson packages: Discounted 5-hour and 10-hour packages are available for students who would like regular tuition.

Online lessons are available across the UK. Face-to-face lessons are available locally, with a £5 travel fee where applicable.
