Natania - Know your tutor
Hello! I am Natania or Nia for short. I have a background in Biochemical Engineering and I am deeply passionate in learning and helping students understand Math concepts. I have over 3 years of teaching experience, especially with the GCSE curriculum and i specialize in concept learning, grade improvement, practice exams and test preparation. When it comes to my teaching technique, I explain each process step by step and always go at the students' pace. Each session's pace will be determined by you and your needs, so there is absolutely no need to worry about needing to stop and retrace our steps. Whether you need help in completing homework or to prepare for a standardized Math test, I'm here to give you a thorough understanding for all your Mathematical inquiries. Outside teaching, I find enjoyment in reading, playing basketball and watching movies.

GCSE prep overview
I am a dedicated and experience Math teacher with over 3 years of expertise in the field of education. I offer Math tutoring sessions for middle school to high school level students, and non-traditional students or returning adults are always welcome. With a passion for mathematics and a commitment to helping my students succeed, I honed my teaching skills to create engaging and effective online lessons. My adaptability and use of digital tools often prove to be a reliable resource for interactive learning. My tutoring sessions are customised to the needs and learning style of the student. I explain concepts which may be difficult to understand and promote asking questions whenever needed. I conclude each lesson by discussing lesson conclusions and ensuring all concepts are thoroughly understood. We can also go over homework and assignments together for test preparation. Let's understand the world of Maths together!

GCSE concepts taught by Natania
The Tutor and Student worked through problems on concavity and inflection points, reviewing the relationship between the second derivative and the shape of a function's graph. They practiced finding inflection points, identifying intervals of concavity, and applied these concepts to various calculus problems, including those involving rates of change.
Increasing Most Rapidly / Rate of Change
Interpreting Graphs of Derivatives
Relationship Between Derivatives and Function Behavior
Concavity and Inflection Points
The Tutor and Student worked through various calculus problems, focusing on differentiation techniques, finding critical points, and analyzing function behavior using derivatives. They practiced applying the chain rule, product rule, and quotient rule, and interpreted the relationship between a function's graph and its derivative's graph. The Tutor and Student also discussed future session scheduling.
Product and Quotient Rules
Logarithmic Functions and Their Domains
Second Derivative Test
Critical Points and Extrema
Chain Rule Application
The tutor and student reviewed calculus concepts, including finding derivatives of various functions, identifying critical points, and determining intervals of increasing and decreasing behavior. They practiced these skills through several example problems and planned to continue with more advanced topics in the next session.
Solving Equations with Exponential Terms
Finding Critical Points
First Derivative Test for Intervals
Identifying Local Extrema
Product Rule and Chain Rule Application
The tutor and student reviewed differentiation techniques, focusing on the chain rule for various functions including those with exponents and roots. They also covered finding critical points and analyzing intervals of increase and decrease for functions. The next session will continue reviewing calculus topics.
Exponent Rules and Fractional Exponents
The Chain Rule
Derivatives of Exponential Functions (e^x)
Finding Critical Points and Intervals of Increase/Decrease
The Tutor and Student reviewed various differentiation rules in calculus, including the power rule, rules for exponential and logarithmic functions, and trigonometric derivatives. They practiced applying these rules to solve problems and worked through more complex scenarios involving the product, quotient, chain, and implicit differentiation rules, as well as related rates.
Power Rule for Differentiation
Differentiation of Exponential Functions (e^x)
Differentiation of Natural Logarithms (ln x)
Product Rule for Differentiation
Quotient Rule for Differentiation
Chain Rule for Differentiation
Rates of Change and Related Rates
The Tutor and Student reviewed fundamental graph theory concepts, including definitions of vertices, edges, walks, trails, paths, circuits, and cycles. They practiced identifying these types of paths and determining graph traversability based on vertex degrees, with a focus on Eulerian paths and circuits.
Graph Terminology: Vertices and Edges
Transversibility of Graphs
Closed Paths: Circuits and Cycles
Types of Walks in Graphs
