Transum currently has a vacancy for a weekly online tuition lesson for students taking one of the following courses:
Please complete the form lower down this page if you are interested in arranging tuition for your child. The hourly rate is £65 (GBP).
The tuition will be conducted via video conference, utilising Zoom and BitPaper. It must occur at a time when the student has access to a large-screen computer (either a desktop or laptop, but not a phone) because I will share my desktop documents, some of which will require interaction or manipulation by the student.
The student's computer must also have a webcam, as teachers assess the pace of their explanations based on the students' facial expressions and body language.
I will gladly select the topics for the sessions; however, if the student wishes to focus on a specific area, please provide at least 24 hours' notice, if possible, so that I can source and adapt appropriate resources for online use.
The BitPaper system allows me to create online workbooks before the lesson, on which both the student and I can write in real time. This approach has proven highly effective. Optimal experiences have been achieved when the student uses a large computer screen for video interaction and an iPad or tablet to write in the BitPaper separately. While not essential, this arrangement significantly enhances the learning experience.
I possess over 40 years of mathematics teaching experience at four different schools, have led the Mathematics departments at three schools, and served for over three years as Senior Mathematics Teacher Consultant for the city of Birmingham, UK. Most recently, I have spent 15 years at Bangkok Patana British International School in Thailand, where I was an Assistant Principal with responsibility for curriculum technology integration. Additionally, I am the author of this website.
This form is to be filled in by the parent or guardian of the student:
