About Gary
I am a fully qualified teacher with over 30 years’ experience across education, including roles as Headteacher, Secondary Mathematics Teacher, University Lecturer and SENDCo. I currently work as an Associate Tutor within a university Education Department while undertaking a Doctorate in Education.
My specialist subject is Mathematics, and I have taught across the full Primary National Curriculum as well as GCSE Maths, English Language and the Sciences. I also have extensive Early Years experience, developing strong foundations in literacy and numeracy.
With over 15 years as a SENDCo, I specialise in closing knowledge gaps, supporting students with additional needs and rebuilding academic confidence. I prepare students for 11+, 12+, 13+ and university entrance exams through a structured, research-informed approach that promotes both exam success and independent learning.

I particularly enjoy one-to-one teaching, as it allows me to tailor learning to each pupil’s individual needs. I incorporate students’ interests into lesson planning to ensure sessions are engaging, relevant and motivating.
I have extensive experience supporting pupils with SEND, as well as those who have fallen behind in their learning. I have taught widely across the primary phase and also bring strong experience in Mathematics at GCSE and A level.
I am happy to travel to pupils’ homes. I firmly believe that learning should be both rewarding and enjoyable, fostering confidence as well as academic progress.
Recommendations

I have known Gary Lester for over three years, over which time he has tutored my daughter and son in English and maths. He has always been punctual and courteous. He has work prepared and is able to adapt to the requirements of my children.
I have no hesitation in recommending him as a tutor.Mr Lester is a fantastic tutor. I can not recommend him highly enough. He is patient, knowledgeable and innovative. He proceeds at a pace my son feels comfortable with and builds his confidence. He is an excellent tutor who goes above and beyond to bring enjoyment back for my son to learn a abject he struggles with. We are lucky to have had his help.
