Maths Tuition In Rossendale & Darwen
Maths has a habit of building on itself.
When one topic has not quite clicked, the next one can suddenly become much harder. Over time, a small gap in understanding can become a bigger problem and students who previously felt comfortable with Maths can begin to lose confidence.
Progress Education Centre provides Maths tuition in Rossendale for students at our Darwen and Haslingden education centres.
We support students who need help strengthening the basics, working through particular areas of Maths or preparing for SATs, 11+ and GCSE examinations.
Finding The Gaps
Sometimes a student knows exactly what they find difficult. Sometimes they simply feel that they are “bad at Maths“.
Those are not the same thing.
Our approach is to identify what a student understands, where the gaps are and what needs to happen next.
We offer a free initial assessment for Maths tuition in Rossendale to identify learning needs and can then develop an individual learning plan with short-term targets.
Progress is monitored and assessed as the student develops.
This helps us focus tuition on the areas that will make a difference rather than repeatedly covering work the student already understands.
Building Mathematical Confidence
Maths tuition in Rossendale & Darwen can help students strengthen core mathematical skills and develop their ability to apply those skills to different questions and problems.
Depending on their age and current level, this may involve working on fundamental number skills, arithmetic, fractions, decimals and percentages, through to algebra, geometry and more advanced mathematical problem solving.
But learning Maths is not simply about memorising a method.
We want students to understand how and why a method works so they are better equipped to deal with questions that are presented differently.
That becomes increasingly important as students progress through secondary school and towards GCSE.
Testimonials
Thank you for all of your help with my daughter’s maths resit, she managed to gain a level 5!!
Support From Primary To GCSE
At Primary level, additional Maths tuition can reinforce the important foundations children will continue building on throughout school.
We can also provide support for SATs and 11+ preparation.
At Key Stage 3, tuition can help students consolidate what they are learning in school, address gaps in understanding and prepare for the increased demands of GCSE study.
For GCSE students, we can provide targeted Maths support and help them develop greater confidence approaching exam-style questions.
Small Group Tuition With Individual Support
Our Maths tuition is delivered in small groups by qualified and experienced tutors.
Students study alongside their peers while receiving individual attention and working at a level and pace appropriate to them.
Many of our tutors also work in local schools and have a strong knowledge of the curriculum.
We also want students to feel able to say when they do not understand something.
There is nothing unusual about finding part of Maths difficult. The important bit is identifying the problem, working through it and building from there.
Becoming A More Independent Learner
Our aim is not for a student to become dependent on their tutor.
We want them to develop the knowledge, confidence and study skills to tackle problems more independently.
We work closely with students and maintain open communication with parents and carers, with tutors available to provide regular feedback about progress.
