About Halima
I am an experienced and fully qualified mathematics teacher with a PGCE in Mathematics, a Master’s degree, and over six years’ teaching experience in Further Education in the North West of England. I currently work in teacher management, while continuing to teach GCSE Mathematics (including resits), Functional Skills Maths, and Entry Level qualifications.
My teaching is grounded in a mastery approach to mathematics, ensuring learners develop secure understanding before progressing. This approach has led to a consistently high pass rate at GCSE Foundation level, particularly for learners who have previously struggled with maths.
I have extensive experience teaching both young people and adult learners, and I am especially skilled at supporting students who lack confidence or have had negative experiences with mathematics. I create a calm, structured, and supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making progress at their own pace.
With a strong academic background in both mathematics and science, I bring clarity, professionalism, and high expectations to every lesson. My aim is not only to help students achieve their qualifications, but also to build lasting confidence and a positive relationship with learning.

Approach to Tutoring & Teaching
My approach to tutoring is clear, structured, and confidence-building, underpinned by a mastery approach to mathematics. I believe that all learners can succeed in maths when concepts are taught in depth, misconceptions are addressed early, and understanding is secured before moving on. This approach has resulted in a consistently high pass rate at GCSE Foundation level, particularly with resit learners.
I focus on breaking concepts down into manageable steps, identifying gaps in understanding, and helping learners build both skills and confidence. Lessons are interactive and supportive, with a strong emphasis on fluency, reasoning, and problem solving, alongside exam technique where appropriate.
Teaching Techniques & Methodology
Mastery-based teaching: securing understanding before progression
Diagnostic assessment to identify strengths and misconceptions
Clear modelling using step-by-step explanations and worked examples
Scaffolded practice leading to independent problem solving
Regular retrieval practice to embed learning over time
Exam-focused strategies for GCSE and Functional Skills qualifications
Positive reinforcement to reduce maths anxiety and build confidence
Typical Lesson Length
60 minutes per lesson
This allows sufficient time for explanation, guided practice, independent work, and reflection.
