With over 40 years’ experience I have taught maths at all levels up to A-level in secondary schools and colleges in Nottingham, London, Huddersfield, Leeds and Sheffield.

I’ve been teaching GCSE Maths online every week since the middle of March 2020 at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. I use Zoom with the built-in whiteboard and also BitPaper. I share past papers and worksheets with students and by using a graphics tablet can write tips or explanations directly on the whiteboard. Both Zoom and BitPaper are free to students and can be easily accessed by mobile, tablet or laptop.
I’ve also used tools like Hegarty Maths and BKSB which have been really useful for students who only have access to a mobile phone. Students can share their screen on Zoom and I can work with them through videos and exercises. These tools have been good pre-preparation for taking past exam papers online.
In-person
I have a large bank of digital resources including all the past exam papers for both AQA and Edexcel exam boards for the new 2017 GCSE Maths specification. Alongside this, I have warm-up and worked exam questions from the 6 main topic areas, worksheets, online videos and exam paper analysers. The analysers help students to pinpoint which topics they need to improve on and show the national average mark for each question so that students can see which questions most students found difficult.
The feedback I’ve had this year from my GCSE Maths students is that I have made complex problems more understandable with a clear approach that breaks down each topic area with simple steps and worked examples. They appreciated my patience and approachability when they just “didn’t get it”. For me, as a bit of a maths geek, the reward was the satisfaction of seeing that “light bulb moment” when my students finally understood a problem and could move forward with the confidence to tackle new questions at a much higher level than they thought possible.

I worked with Mark at an FE college, working with learners who were interested in a career in film production. Mark was a passionate and committed teacher. He developed a good rapport with students and was good at understanding their needs and finding ways to engage them. He was innovative, practical and dedicated to the learning of his students.
I worked with Mark for a number of years as his line manager and as a colleague. He was always firm but fair with all students guiding them through their Academic journey. His attention to assessment detail was excellent, as was his tracking records. Mark's classes were always well organised and delivered.
