Maths Tutor for Adults
Are you looking for a maths tutor?
If you are looking for a maths tutor to help you with something related to maths, you have come to the right place.
I offer one-to-one maths tuition to adults for various situations. However trivial or hard the maths problem you have might seem, I am here to help.
"I was lacking confidence in maths and needed help to pass an exam. Nicola was a fantastic teacher and really helped to improve my technique and approach to maths problems. She is patient, understanding and friendly. I would highly recommend her as a tutor."
"Great teaching, friendly, helpful and I’ve learnt loads compared to when I was taught Maths at school. Highly recommended!"
I can’t thank Nicola enough. I've had a terrible phobia of maths for over 30 years! I’m thinking of returning to nursing and Nicola has helped me enormously to understand drug calculations. She’s very warm and friendly which puts you at ease and she explains everything in a way that you can understand. I’d really recommend her.
Isn’t maths hard?
Sometimes yes, it is a challenge, but usually it’s because you misunderstood something a few steps back. If you can return to the point where your knowledge is missing, plugging that gap can then lead you forward to a better place to meet that initial challenge.
Maths Tutor for Adults – What aspects of maths do you cover?
I cater for all the following:
– Maths GCSE (retakes and first time)
– Functional Skills Maths – Entry Levels 1-3, Level 1 and Level 2
– Numeracy Skills Test (QTS Skills Test for Teacher Training)
– Numerical Reasoning Tests (maths for interviews)
– Basic Maths skills (for those who want to get to grips with everyday maths)
– Maths for Parents (for parents wanting to help their children with their maths homework)
– Maths for Work (specific to a current job role, e.g. in engineering)
– Maths for Computing / Games (Trigonometry, 3D Vectors)
– Other maths (send me a message with your requirements)
"Nicola supported me to develop an understanding of basic maths concepts which helped me to build skills and gain a strong foundation ready for a numerical reasoning test I was undertaking for work. Nicola was a patient tutor, always helpful in answering any questions I had around the basics, and then through the range of example questions, so I was fully prepared for my test. I’d always found maths quite a scary subject, but through Nicola's tutoring I found I built confidence with the subject, so much so that I even enjoyed my numerical reasoning test at the end. Would highly recommend Nicola to anyone looking to study for a similar test."
My weekly timetable is often full with regular lessons from mid-afternoon onwards (I tutor children as well) but I have availability during the daytime / lunchtime etc, and some evenings for a few ad hoc lessons.
All lessons are bespoke to fit your needs. Lessons cost £40 per hour (£44 from 24th July 2023). One or two lessons might be all you need, but I can tailor lessons for as many as you like to meet your goal.
You can see what immediate availability I have by checking out my Bookings page. It will only show for the next calendar month, but if you contact me we can make arrangements for a day and time that suits us both. A regular slot, if appropriate, can be arranged.
About Me
My name is Nicola Bhalerao and I am a private tutor based in Warwick. Since 2013, I have provided one-to-one tuition for children and adults. I specialise in maths tutoring, but cater for different requests, ranging from 11+ / entrance exams to various uses of maths, e.g. : interviews, job promotions, GCSE retakes, Functional Skills, nursing, teaching – any situation where confidence in maths is required.
My background is in computing, with a Computer Science degree from Warwick University. I have worked many years as a programmer, latterly in the games industry. Both my sons were tutored by me for the 11+ (they went to a local grammar school). I received training for teaching secondary school maths and I am fully CRB checked.
