About Simone
Strong Maths Foundations and Clear Explanations
Simone brings a solid academic background in mathematics, having achieved top-range results in both core and advanced maths at school and strong marks in higher-level maths thereafter. She is confident breaking down complex ideas into simple, step-by-step explanations, especially for students who feel “stuck” or anxious about the subject. This tutor focuses on building a strong foundation in number sense, algebra, and problem-solving so students not only get the right answers, but also understand why the methods work.
Experienced Working with Children in Real-World Settings
Beyond the classroom, Simone has hands-on experience engaging children through party workshops and activity-based events, where she regularly guided groups, explained tasks clearly, and kept kids focused while still having fun. This experience helps her manage different personalities and attention levels, especially in primary and lower secondary students. She is used to adjusting her approach on the spot, giving gentle direction, and encouraging quieter students to participate, which translates well into patient, encouraging one-to-one tutoring.
Patient, Multilingual Communicator with a Practical Approach
Simone speaks English, Chinese and Hindi, allowing her to connect with a wide range of families and students. Her background in science and animal health means she often uses real-life, practical examples to make abstract maths concepts more relatable, such as linking ratios to everyday situations or measurement to real-world problem-solving. This tutor is calm, reliable, and organised, and she works with parents to understand goals, track progress, and build each student’s confidence lesson by lesson.
