WHAT ARE THE GROUP CLASSES?
The Group classes are 1 hour long online sessions designed for GCSE Maths students with the aim of developing their knowledge and skills. The classes act as a supplement for Year 10’s and Year 11’s to help them prepare for their summer exams. This will be done by focusing on developing exam technique, by going over exam style questions while consolidating any concepts as we go along. Different exam questions will be covered every session, with the aim to get through as much of the syllabus as possible, so students are in the best possible position come May. The classes will be running weekly until the end of exams in the summer.
HOW DO THEY WORK?
Lessons will be conducted via Zoom, where we have interactive whiteboards and screen sharing available, virtually replicating a physical classroom. Sessions will last one hour each day and will be conducted in small groups, with the aim to review key topics which students typically find difficult.
These will be running from Monday to Friday, aimed at parents who would like some extra support for their children during the academic year at an affordable price of £10 per class. Students will be allocated to groups according to their ability and year group, to ensure a personalized learning experience. Sessions are suitable for all exam boards.
MICROSOFT TEAMS
Contact is not limited to the weekly sessions; the students are able to have regular contact with me via the channels created in Microsoft Teams. MS teams is where I post all resources for students to access such as class notes, videos, pdf’s and so on. Any announcements such as lesson times, upcoming assignments are also posted in MS Teams. In addition, students are also expected to work with their peers from time to time, the aim is to create a community of support throughout the course of the year, so a student never feels alone or overwhelmed.

Dan this is just a quick note thank you for helping my son with his maths. As a result he passed his GCSE.

Dan was the best option for my Children. He is young and so got on very well with my kids. His great communication... during lessons allowed my kids to very quickly learn topics that they used to struggle learning at school. He always made sure the lessons were fun and interactive which removed the boring side of revision. My kids really benefited from him and one of them managed to get a grade 8 in maths, which is 2 grades higher than his mock grade just months before. In just a couple of months, he managed to inspire my kids to push forward and achieve their goals. Thank you Dan.read more

I can’t recommend Daniel enough! My Daughter who has dyscalculia has always struggled with maths to the point she would... have anxiety attacks preparing herself for maths class the next day. 3 months before her GCSE’s she relented and said I’ll give tutoring a try. Daniel has a great approach and instantly put her at ease. He teaches tips and tricks that really work. Her school teacher actually made several comments of, ‘Who taught you how to do that, your tutor?’ After only 3 months of weekly sessions my daughter had gone from grade 2, never passing a maths exam, to passing her GCSE with a high grade 4. Thanks to Daniel she can take an extra A level subject instead of resitting maths! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️read more

My daughter has always struggled with Maths. After her mock exam, we decided to use Dan to help boost her confidence in... Maths. After just a few months, her confidence and understanding of maths improved alot and she managed to pass her Maths GCSE!! Dan’s calm and friendly approach with banter in between really helped her to relax, which took away her previous anxiety around maths. Now he is tutoring my son in preparation for GCSES next year, I look forward to returning here with another great testimony 🤞🏾😊read more

Daniel worked really well with my son. My son found the sessions with Daniel to be enjoyable and engaging. His method... of working made difficult matters much easier to digest and take-in. He was also very encouraging of my son which in turn made my son want to go the extra mile to try to do as well as he could -- which he did. And his A-Level result was testament to this. Would highly recommend Maths with Dan.read more
