A tutor must be able to teach a student *how* to understand, so that they are properly equipped when approached by new hurdles in their learning.Subjects Tutored 🎓

About Yassine
Strong academic foundation in Maths and English
Yassine is a high-achieving secondary student with advanced studies in Mathematical Methods and English, giving him a strong base to support both primary and high school learners. His awards for academic excellence show that he not only understands the content but also knows how to study effectively and explain ideas clearly. This tutor is well placed to help students who need to consolidate the basics, as well as those looking to extend themselves beyond classroom expectations.
Peer mentor with real experience guiding younger students
Yassine has hands-on experience advising younger students through formal peer support mentoring at school. In these sessions, he has helped classmates and younger peers break down tricky concepts, stay organised, and build confidence in class. This mentoring background means he understands how to adjust explanations, check for understanding, and encourage students who may be nervous about Maths or English, making lessons feel approachable rather than intimidating.
Calm, organised and relatable role model
Beyond the classroom, Yassine’s time working in a busy bookshop and participating in practical FoodTech workshops has strengthened his communication, patience and attention to detail—skills he brings directly into tutoring. He is comfortable working through step-by-step processes, whether it’s a Maths problem or a writing task, and he knows how to keep students engaged without rushing them. As a current student himself, he relates easily to school pressures and helps learners develop practical study habits they can actually use.

Mete was able to easily grasp and memorise the concept of opposite operations in regards to algebra. As well as this, he developed somewhat of a handle on long division, which I believe he will have refined after completing this week's homework.
Mete still has some trouble with units and needs to practise writing numbers in the correct unit placement. An additional homework question addressing this may aid him. Furthermore, he is reluctant to use his fingers during division questions, and could use some reassurance that it is the best method available to him until he has a stronger relationship with his times tables.

Mete was quick to understand the content this session, allowing us to test the array model on larger and more difficult numbers. Furthermore, when prompted he was able to apply what he had learned in our previous sessions.
Mete rushes to answer questions, resulting in him getting them wrong. However, when he stops and thinks carefully he is always able to answer correctly, demonstrating that he actually does understand the content. I strongly advise that he be encouraged to pause and apply the strategies we discuss in our sessions. There is no shame in taking a moment when we're still this early in the learning process.

Mete's knowledge of the different units was strengthened, and together we worked out a step-by-step guide as well as a mnemonic for him to easily identify the unit placement of a number. The homework I left him should motivate Mete to remember these guides as second nature.
Mete understands the fundamentals of measuring with a ruler, however he has yet to memorise the different units of measurement and their relation to one another. This is not a major concern, and in the coming weeks I believe we should focus more on solidifying his knowledge of multiplication and division, as well as algebraic equations.

Mete had a solid understanding of most of the fractions listed, and with a bit of help, was able to grasp 1/8, as well as how we can reach an eighth by splitting a quarter in half. I can easily see him learning about more fractions in the coming weeks.
Although Mete was able to quickly understand the basics of multiplication, his grasp on the unit components is lacking. Until he feels confident with the fundamentals of hundreds, tens, ones, and so on, it will be difficult for Mete to perform trickier operations without blatant memorisation, which I'd like to avoid. Weekly homework sheets (which I can provide) should cement these fundamentals in his head and allow Mete to move onto higher level math.
