About Rhys

Academic:

I hold a Masters in Pure Mathematics from Glasgow University, and I am currently completing my PhD in Mathematics at Liverpool University.

Teaching Experience:

I have been tutoring privately for seven years and have been part of the Liverpool outreach team for four years. During this time, I have worked alongside long term teachers, and have learnt from their pedagogical techniques. I am currently a math tutor at Education Place in Liverpool, where I teach groups of three students GCSE maths.

More about me:

I am currently transitioning from academia to industry, specifically data science, and I am tutoring to pay the rent in the meantime. Also, I have a cocker spaniel called Maisy, she's the best pup.

About the lesson

First (free) lesson:

I start by getting to know the student and I will assess where the student is at and find any gaps. This will involve asking a few questions and possibly setting a small assessment. I also ask students to send me any recent results/papers. We will then organize a revision plan for the coming weeks.

Typical lesson:

I will start with any issues encountered from the previous lesson or a starter activity.

I will mostly focus on past paper questions to work on solving problems, understanding exam language and exam technique. If we encounter a troublsome concept I will explain it with examples then quiz to ensure it is understood.

We will also build a mind map of the learning objectives and track known and difficult areas, targeting difficult areas.

At the end of the lesson, we reflect on what we covered and set homework to solidify learning. Which will focus on core areas to built foundations as they will help tackle the harder problems.

Approach:

We then work through questions with an open mind and investigate problems together to piece together an argument for an answer, and hope to develop:

- toolbox of skills to tackle questions,
- the probing questions to progress through tasks,
- a open mind to explore and adapt to the information presented,
- the patience to tackle one problem at a time,
- and the discipline and consistency to keep on track.

Throughout I encourage and give guidance to inspire inspire curiosity, a genuine interest in maths and the confidence to succeed.
I am skilled at managing stressors related to the learning process, especially with exams, and I am compassionate about my students' well-being.

Admin & Feedback:

I tutor GCSE, A Level lessons and entrance examination syllabus of the school they are applying for.

I can provide feedback of the students progrees to the parents at an agreed apon frequency.

I can also mark past papers, if they are set for homework.

Lessons are conducted online using Zoom (I may explore Bitpaper or Onenote).

I am available by email if you have any concerns.

As Rhys' older brother, I can personally vouch for his exceptional skills as a maths tutor, especially when it comes to helping folk that struggle with math. Growing up, I always found maths to be a challenging subject, but Rhys was always able to explain things to me in a way that made sense.
Rhys has a talent for breaking down complex concepts into simpler, more manageable parts. He has a patient and encouraging demeanor, which helps to put people at ease and build their confidence in their own abilities. When I was struggling with math in high school, Rhys was always there to provide me with the guidance and support I needed to improve.
One thing that sets Rhys apart as a math teacher is his dedication to his students' success. He cares about each of his students and goes above and beyond to ensure that they understand the material. He's always willing to answer questions, get lots of resources for you to study, and offer extra help where it's needed.
I cannot recommend Rhys enough as a maths tutor especially for those who struggle with the subject. He has a natural talent for teaching in a way that is accessible and easy to understand. If you're looking for a tutor who can help you overcome your difficulties with math, Rhys is your man.

Rhys is a top bloke and tutor. I had to essentially re-learn maths and forgotten how to do most of it since leaving school. He's been brilliant and patient, took his time to explain the process clearly and methodically. Better than my past teachers.

Rhys's explanations were clear and easy to understand, he took his time to ensure that I grasped each concept before moving on, and his kind teaching style helped me overcome the difficulties I previously faced with maths. He was able to simplify complex concepts and was willing to provide additional resources to reinforce my understanding of a topic - I would 100% recommend Rhys to anyone!
