About Matthew
I have just completed my first year studying for a Mathematics Degree at Imperial College London. For my GCSE's I achieved a grade 9 in Maths, English Literature and English Language and the rest were all A* with one A - the new system hadn't been fully incorporated. For my A Levels I achieved triple A* at Woodhouse College in Maths, Further Maths and Physics.
During Sixth Form, I had applied to Trinity College, Cambridge and Imperial College London and so I have had experience in revising for and taking the STEP I, II and III and MAT entrance exams.

In Sixth Form, I would re-visit my secondary school on a weekly basis to help teach the top-set Year 11's in preparation for their GCSE Maths exams. A common issue I found was that student's relied too heavily on the way the question was written, to notice which method to apply. From my own journey through secondary school and sixth form, I have seen how this can stem from the way it is taught.
Therefore I aim to make sure that the student understands the reasoning behind the method, which allows them to identify scenarios for its application, even if the wording or context of the question changes. This is reinforced by going through relevant proofs to show exactly why the method works, and whether there are any conditions for its use.
I believe this approach is vital for taking the MAT and STEP exams, as the actual content required to answer the question is not so advanced, however understanding the scenario and which method to apply proves to be more difficult.

I have known Matt since I was 11 years old, he has always been very hardworking, very intelligent and naturally inclined to help other people, when someone in the class needed help you could count on Matthew to help them, he has helped me with questions which have left me confused for days before, and broke them down point by point making them seem simple to me in a matter of minutes. I recommend him on the basis he gives very concise information, telling you only what you need to know, if someone is being tutored by Matthew I do not doubt that he would help improve not only their grades whilst he is tutoring them, but setting them up to think in a logical manner which will help them throughout their lifetime.
Helped me immensely with my A-Level maths and a big reason as to why I achieved my A*. Patient and made sure I genuinely understood concepts before moving on. Thoroughly recommend.
