Hello, I’m Pippa
I’m a teacher with over 30 years’ experience, including five years as a Chief Examiner.
I know how intense the pressure around GCSE Maths can be, not just for students, but for parents too.
I’ve seen bright, capable young people lose confidence, not because they lack ability, but because fear and anxiety take over.
I also know the other side:
✔️ confidence returning
✔️ understanding growing
✔️ doors opening — to further study, apprenticeships, and future opportunities
Throughout my career, I’ve specialised in helping learners overcome anxiety in education and achieve the qualifications they need to move forward.
I help learning make sense again

My approach is calm, structured, and confidence-first.
