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 a comprehensive session covering algebra, including solving linear equations and algebraic manipulation, and transitioned to fractions and percentages, practicing conversions and problem-solving. They also touched upon statistics, geometry, and data interpretation, with the student actively participating in problem-solving throughout.
Solving Linear Equations
Fractions
Decimals
and Percentages Conversion
Factorizing Expressions
Perimeter and Area of Rectangles
Order of Operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS)
The Tutor and Student reviewed a wide array of mathematics topics including statistics, algebra, geometry, percentages, fractions, and coordinate geometry. They practiced problem-solving techniques and formula application, with plans to cover more advanced topics and past papers in future sessions.
Volume of a Container
Percentage Decrease and Increase
Algebraic Simplification and Expansion
Area of Triangles and Rectangles
Calculating Mean and Range
The Tutor and Student reviewed a broad range of mathematics topics from algebra and number theory to geometry, statistics, and data representation. They assessed the Student's understanding through discussion and by working through past paper questions, identifying areas for further practice such as fractions, percentages, 3D shape volumes, and specific statistical graphs. The next session will continue reviewing past papers or cover identified weak areas.
Integers
Decimals
and Fractions
Order of Operations (PEMDAS/BIDMAS)
Mean
Median
and Mode
Area and Perimeter
The Tutor and Student reviewed the definition and properties of functions and relations, including how to identify them from coordinate pairs. They then practiced using function notation, evaluating functions for given inputs, and solving for input values. The session also covered piecewise functions and introduced the concepts of domain and range, with exercises on determining these for various functions. Finally, the Tutor introduced the calculation of gradients and the point-gradient formula.
Gradient of a Line
Functions vs. Relations
Function Notation and Evaluation
Piecewise Functions
Domain and Range
The Tutor and Student worked through various topics in algebra, including function notation, composite functions, piecewise functions, and linear functions. They practiced evaluating functions, finding the equation of a line given two points, and began exploring the concepts of domain and range.
Domain and Range
Linear Functions and Equations of a Line
Piecewise Functions
Composite Functions
Function Notation
The tutor and student worked through problems related to calculating the volume and surface area of cylinders and prisms, including composite shapes. The student practiced applying formulas and understanding the units for volume (cubic) and surface area (squared). They also discussed adapting the lesson plan to the Australian curriculum.
Surface Area of Cylinders
Volume of Composite Shapes
Units of Measurement: Area vs. Volume
Volume of Cylinders and Prisms
