About Steve

About me -

I received a 1st class honours degree in Mathematics in 2009, but despite attempts by my tutor at the University of Birmingham to persuade me to continue with a masters program, I had my sights set on playing squash professionally which I did between 2010-2016 until blighted by a slew of injuries. I reached a career high of 130 in the world before turning my hand to teaching squash, personal training, and eventually, academic tutoring.

I hope my experience will further enable me to help advise students as they reach those crucial junctions in their fledgling careers, giving them the confidence to make important decisions and not just pass tests.

About the lesson

Experience -

I have been tutoring one-to-one for over 12 years now. I always found time after school to tutor pupils around my training bases, travelling round the houses after I had finished my own training sessions. I tutored Maths and Science initially, with pupils ranging in age from 8-18. Whether prospective medical, law or Ivy League undergraduates preparing for their final exams, or younger children whose parents were simply looking for a helping hand with homework, I got to work with a broad mix of students of varying personalities and capabilities. Since 2020 I have been tutoring more online, in particular in light of the covid-19 pandemic, during which I began teaching English to overseas students alongside my usual commitments.

Approach -

Clearly not everybody learns in the same way, and certainly without the right tools, it is difficult to make sense of information, let alone build upon it or have any personal insights. My approach to tutoring involves balancing those types of lessons in which pupils feel they have complete freedom to explore a topic according to what they find interesting, diving down what rabbit holes they will, against developing a disciplined practice of the core concepts of the subject at hand. Whether that is the scientific method, sentence structure and vocabulary, or arithmetic, these are the foundations upon which pupils can start to really enjoy learning, and ultimately part with their teachers and begin to direct their own learning. As much as possible I try to refrain from providing answers, electing instead to guide my students through the use of questions so that the discoveries made are their own.

I typically run hour long sessions, although for exam prep sessions can be made open ended and an hourly rate set in order to get through material as required.
