About Fred
Recently graduated from the University of Bristol in 2019 with a Masters in Mechanical Engineering. I really enjoy practical sciences and often find that maths isn't considered to be practical or purposeful by some students stuck in classrooms.
In my private tutoring sessions I like to work through the problems that the student is having, allowing them to dictate the focus of the lesson. We then approach the problems in different ways and explain the uses of the mathematical principles showing meaning to the maths beyond the scope of their syllabus. This I believe is crucial, as it develops a fuller understanding and a more problem solving approach which can be implemented during exams without having to work through tedious exercises which just become a memory game. With that said I am fully aware of the nuances of public exams and the requirements to fulfill the specifications of the mark scheme, which I will also work through with the student and so developing their mathematical development and exam practice to achieve the grades they are aspiring to.
I have eight months private tutoring experience of GCSE mathematics and physics. Helping a student achieve the grades they wanted in order to satisfy the entrance requirements for the 6th form they were applying to. I was very pleased to hear that they had succeeded and were able to join the school. I am now wanting to do more tutoring to help students who may feel they want to get a head start with their maths following these difficult times. Hope to hear from you soon.

I confirm that I have known Fred around 4-5 years in a professional capacity.
Fred provided maths tutoring for my son before he took his GCSEs in 2017. At all times I found him to be courteous, friendly, reliable and professional in his capacity as tutor and my son always looked forward to the sessions with Fred. He was very much at ease in his company and enjoyed the sessions. Fred always turned up on time and had researched the exam board and brought along relevant material to study to include past exam questions. My son was completely at ease in his company and enjoyed his maths sessions with Fred.
I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone wanting extra help with maths.
My son gained a B (with his raw score just 9 away from an A) which we were most happy with and this helped him gain a place at sixth form in a grammar school to study for A Levels.I have know Fred all his life, and have followed his academic progress with special interest. He has been a diligent student all through school and University, always looking for a proper understanding of a subject rather than "just enough to get through", and over time we have had many long - and fascinating - talks about his progress so far, work-in-hand and plans for the future.
As a Maths tutor myself, I can see a really good depth of understanding of that particular subject - plus the (closely-related) Physics, which coupled with his natural energy and enthusiasm I am confident will be helpful to any student.
