About

A little bit about me….

I  discovered my love of maths at the age of 6 when I spent my summer holiday working through a mental arithmetic text book given to me by my teacher at school and that love of numbers has never left me.  I went on to complete a degree in Maths and initially had a successful career as an accountant.   My love of tutoring gradually turned from a hobby into a profession that has challenged and fulfilled me for over 20 years.  I have vast experience of teaching students of all ages from 5 years old to adult but have decided to specialise in preparing both students as well as parents for GCSE and IGCSE exams.

Testimonials

We have known Susan since January of 2020, when she took Josh on to give extra tuition in maths.  Josh at that stage was failing in Maths and really had no interest in putting in any effort.  Susan took Josh on and saw the potential that he did not see himself.  She assessed his level in maths, tailored the lessons to his needs and inspired him to do better.  Each week with Susan you could see his confidence grow and his grades improve.  Josh went from a failing student to a student that passed his GCSE.  I would highly recommend Susan to any parent and will be contact her in the future for my other children.

Susan has been an excellent Maths tutor to our son over the years. She has worked with him since his Primary School times up till recently for his GCSE. Our son secured grade 9 in his GCSE mathematics, and now studies A-level Maths and Further Maths in the Sixth Form. Her fantastic tutoring skills include: outstanding subject knowledge, structured sessions with an effective time management and productive feedback at the end of each session. As a person, she is lovely, supportive and has encouraging approach. We have been lucky to have her as our son’s tutor and I am delighted to recommend her as a maths tutor.
