Tutor Profile

Robb

Hello, I’m Robb, a maths tutor based between London and Somerset. I hold a BA (Hons) in Primary Teacher Education from Oxford Brookes University and a Master’s degree from Bath Spa University.

I am someone who enjoys problem solving, and I find maths to be a bit like solving puzzles. I try to bring this perspective into my teaching so that mathematics feels less daunting and more approachable.

Alongside tutoring, I work professionally as a songwriter and music producer in London. My work has received international support on radio and streaming platforms and been performed at major festivals including Glastonbury, Reading & Leeds, and the Isle of Wight Festival.

Outside of work, I enjoy rugby, travelling, cinema and cooking.

Teaching Experience

I have been tutoring maths for over 10 years and have worked with students ranging from primary school age through to GCSE level.

My experience includes preparing students for Common Entrance examinations, independent school entrance exams, SATs, and GCSE Mathematics. I have supported students of all abilities, from those who have lost confidence in maths and need additional support, to high-achieving students aiming for top grades and scholarships.

Over the years, I have helped many students improve both their understanding and enjoyment of mathematics by breaking down difficult concepts into manageable steps and tailoring lessons to each individual’s needs.

Tutoring Approach

My approach to tutoring is friendly, patient and tailored to the individual student. Every student learns differently, so I adapt my lessons to suit their needs, strengths and learning style.

I focus on building a strong understanding of the underlying concepts rather than simply memorising methods. Once students understand why something works, they are often able to tackle unfamiliar questions with much greater confidence.

I encourage students to ask questions, make mistakes and think independently.
