About James

I am a keen amateur mountaineer and fell-walker. Mont Blanc (4810m, France/Italy), Elbrus (5642m, Russia), Cayambe (5790m, Ecuador) and Mera Peak (Central) (6461m, Nepal) are my highest successful summits. More frequently, I go walking in the uplands of England, Wales and Scotland, and have been known to do multi-day, long-distance routes. I volunteer with the local Scout District (for which I have been DBS checked), particularly to help out with fell-walking and mountaineering activities. Helping people understand navigation, weather, safety, and choices of equipment and clothing are particularly rewarding for me. I enjoy seeing people realise that they can do things they assumed they couldn't. During July, August and September 2023 I lived in a Buddhist monastery in Nepal, teaching English to young monks. As well as teaching two classes of teenagers, I was invited to teach the head of the monastery - Rinpoche - who at the time was an 8-year-old boy. In earlier times I played bass guitar in a semi-professional band, our main achievements being three outings on vinyl and national radio airplay. Nowadays I play the 6-string guitar (badly). Writing computer software is a hobby of mine. I've been writing software on and off for over forty years, and in all that time I have only spent three weeks being paid as a programmer.

Recent successes in online Maths tutoring include:
Cambridge vet med candidate. Got a B in Maths first time. Was offered a place conditional on getting an A* on re-sit. I worked with her for 7 months. She got her A*!
GCSE Maths candidate. Forecast a 4. Needed a 5 to qualify for A-level. I worked with him for a year leading up to his GCSEs. He got a 6.

I have been teaching adults online and in person for over 20 years - it's how I have earned my living. More recently I have taught my younger son and his friends Maths at GCSE and A-Level. My son went from "I'm no good at Maths" to A* in GCSE followed by A in A-Level in around three years. I am friendly, patient and flexible in my approach to teaching. Many people will say they are no good at Maths because they perceive that they aren't very good at mental arithmetic. Dirty secret - neither am I! But you can still excel at Maths because Maths isn't just "harder sums". We will explore different topics, move forward step by step, and take the time to ensure that each step is secure before we build on it. Most people don't concentrate well on the same thing for more than about 40 minutes at a time. Lessons generally won't last much longer than that, and definitely not more than 1 hour.
