YVETTE POW,
Why choose Pow Maths?
My Tutoring
Style
A former Head of Maths and an Advanced Skills Teacher rated as Outstanding by observers.
I have successfully prepared students for the Common Entrance Exam.
I am used to teaching a range of students from those aiming for A* grades to those who are struggling to secure a C grade.
I also have experience tutoring Primary aged students for catch up sessions.
Using a friendly and positive approach to teaching that works from where the learner is with their understanding I can quickly help a student to make visible progress. Maths is often about building confidence as well as factual knowledge. A one-to-one tutoring session can help a young person to catch up with their classmates and gives them a feeling of pride and enjoyment. Tutoring can relieve the stress and pressure of GCSE and A Level Maths by consolidating classroom teaching. For adults wishing to gain a GCSE in Maths in order to pursue further and higher education goals or to enhance career opportunities I can offer support, advice and lessons.
Please be aware that I am no longer taking on new tutees as I will finish private tutoring in July 2018.
​
I am a qualified Advanced Skills Maths Teacher with 18 years teaching experience with students in Secondary, Sixth Form and University.
I have up to date skills and a full understanding of the current maths curriculum.
I understand how students can struggle to keep up in a busy maths classroom and can help to build confidence in young people who are feeling overwhelmed.
I am registered with the DBS and have an enhanced DBS certificate (police check).
