Jen Pawsey, she/her

up to GCSE: £152.75 per month, £47 per hour

"I love maths, and I love teaching maths.

It’s my mission to help students to love it too! I promote understanding over rote learning, and use the concrete, pictorial, abstract sequence. I teach through objects, games, anecdotes and puzzles as much as possible. I believe maths is the language of the precise: like any language you can learn it for the love of it (the mathematical equivalent of poetry) or put it to use, in science, for practical craft, or just for calling out politicians’ ropey statistics. 

I trained at Homerton College, Cambridge and worked first in a middle school (KS2 and 3). I have since taught KS2 - 4, at every level from catch-up to extension. I have specialist training in dyscalculia and maths anxiety and am currently researching the use of metaphor in teaching fractions. The joy of 1:1 and small group teaching is being able to tailor my approach to suit the student, and seeing them make real progress."

Why Toby Highly Recommends Jen P

I've known Jen P properly since 2023 when she came and volunteered for All Teach Maths for a few months, though I'd known about her excellent maths work in a local primary school for several years via various sources! Seeing her in action, it was very obvious to me that she's a brilliant maths teacher, and that her philosophy is super aligned with All Teach Maths. In fact the reason she came was to learn more about our unique Teach-to-Learn one to one group sessions. She is a highly enthusiastic and engaging mathematician, and has been attending the awesome Association for Mathematics in Education conferences for years. She has a great deal of experience in school and out, and her warmth and bubblyness seem to put younger students immediately at a sense of ease. Her training in maths anxiety is very helpful, but it is her natural super-fun yet calming and maths-focussed energy that makes the most difference here. She's particularly skillful with younger students from age five (up to GCSE) and turning maths fears into maths confidence. She has such a fun energy and is superb (and very creative) at using physical resources to bring real and deep understanding. I absolutely recommend her as a maths tutor for young people aged 5 to 16. Toby Golds

Why Toby Highly Recommends Alice

I've had the pleasure of teaching maths with Alice for the almost 3 years she volunteered with our Teach-to-Learn maths group. Alice's enthusiasm and knowledge about maths (and lots of other things too) are unboundedly enormous. She seemed from the very start to have a natural ability to channel this enthusiasm and maths knowledge in an age appropriate way to reach students of all ages and all abilities, and this has grown even more so over her three years of experience. Her lived experience of neuro-divergence have helped her connect with a neuro-diverse range of students, and her brilliance in teaching is an absolute contradiction to any prejudices people might have about autistic people teaching. Many times I've heard a sound bite of something she's said while teaching across the room and thought about both the content and the tone "Wow, that was brilliant." She has a fantastic overview of maths at all levels, and how it relates to other areas of learning and life. She's deepened my maths understanding in a few places too (we are all learners here!). She's highly creative and very able to bring forward those struggling and push onward those already flying. I'd thoroughly recommend Alice for anyone wanting to learn maths aged from 8 up to 98.
