About Sammy
My name is Sammy, and I have been tutoring for two years — working with students from primary age through to candidates in their final months of preparation.
I have just completed my own A-levels in Maths, Further Maths, Economics and Computer Science, achieving A*AAA — the A* in Mathematics, with an A in Further Mathematics. Before that, a Grade 9 in GCSE Maths and an A in additional maths FSMQ. In October I begin my Computer Science degree at Durham University. This is the core of what I offer: everything I teach is current. I know the present specification, how examiners word their questions, and which topics students find most difficult — because I sat those same papers this summer.
Maths is the subject I enjoy most, and I believe that comes through in my lessons. The feedback I receive most often from parents is twofold: grades improve, and their child stops dreading the subject.

Most lessons open with a short retrieval starter — questions drawn from topics covered in previous weeks. I keep a running record of everything a student has learnt and deliberately revisit older material at spaced intervals, so nothing fades before the exam.
The core of the lesson is built around questions, not lectures. I work through a problem while questioning the student at every step to test their understanding, then hand over more and more of the method until they can complete the full question unaided. This is far more engaging than being talked at, and it exposes gaps immediately. For particularly abstract topics I will teach the concept directly first, but I keep this brief — students learn maths by doing it, not hearing about it.
New skills are then consolidated through worksheet practice for the remainder of the lesson, with homework set where useful. Repetition is what turns understanding into marks.
Support does not stop when the lesson ends — I am always available by message between sessions, whether that is a homework question or a wobble the night before a test.

Sammy is a hardworking and upbeat tutor who always takes the time to explain things clearly. He’s great at breaking down tricky topics and making them easy to understand. I’ve learned a lot from him and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a supportive and effective tutor!
I’d highly recommend Sammy. One of his best qualities as a maths tutor is the way he explains things in a calm and gentle manner, especially to pupils who can be frustrating, those who struggle with maths and young people resistant to learning. He has a way of adapting and tailoring his lessons to each pupil’s learning style.
Sammy also has a passion for maths that is a joy to see in his sessions. That passion really filters through to everyone he teaches and makes his lessons enjoyable, even for those without a love for the subject!!Sammy has been an exceptional tutor for my son during his GCSE exam preparation.
