Very helpful first session! Some great tips on exam strategy and how to tackle STEP problems in the most straightforward way.

STEP Prep is hard

16th June 2023
Just had my last class - the guy's an amazing tutor, always knows the subject content very well and his attitude towards work and exams is awesome and it gives you a good insight into what you should be doing to prepare for an exam, but also how you should approach it and aspects like that. I thoroughly enjoyed working through questions with him and I feel there was a valuable lesson to be learnt in each such case, but also I enjoyed the periods in which he would explain a new concept or talk about something off the specification - provided you're on board. Overall an excellent tutor whom I'd highly recommend for anyone who wants to progress in Maths.

Great lesson, definitely more oriented towards specific issues I was having rather than general exercises or practice but I imagine these were prepared in the case that I did not have anything specific to go through. Managed to understand and appreciate a bunch of new problem solving techniques in just a short amount of time, which is what I was looking for.
