MathsClub

Mathsclub has been in existence since 1999. It aims to build confidence in maths by teaching at the student's own pace in an informal, relaxed atmosphere. Groups consist of up to 5 students at a time and they range in age from Yr2 to Yr11.

MathsClub is based at the Queens Park Art Centre in Aylesbury and costs £10 per child per week.

For further information about MathsClub, please contact me.

I have also contributed the the PfP publication, 'The Maths Co-Ordinators File' with a paper on how to set up MathsClubs in Primary schools and the strategies that might be used in them.

As an accreditted tutor for the British Science association I have been involved in delivering the Young Investigators Award for some years at the Queens Park Arts Centre in Aylesbury. In 2006 this course was featured on BBC Three Counties Radio as a way of engaging young people with science.This year this has been replaced by the megastars award and will run at QPC early inthe summer holidays

I also run a short 3 day course on photography for children at Queens Park Centre as well as one called 'Will it fly?' - to which the answer is a resounding - 'YES!'. For details of these courses, please contact me.

I have prepared an number of adult students for entry exams for the Fire Service as well as getting a few trainee teachers through their tests for Qalified Teacher Staus. Fees for this service are £25 per hour.
