About
As a qualified Maths teacher with over 10 years of teaching and tutoring experience, I understand that every student learns differently. My lessons are tailored to the individual, whether you need help building confidence, mastering difficult topics, improving exam technique, or achieving your target grade.
I create a supportive and positive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and learning from mistakes. Rather than simply teaching methods to memorise, I focus on developing a deep understanding of mathematical concepts so that students can apply their knowledge independently and confidently.
I specialise in tutoring KS3, GCSE and A Level Maths. Every lesson is carefully planned to meet the student’s needs and build on their strengths. Lessons are one hour long and designed to maximise progress while keeping students engaged and motivated.

Reviews from First Tutors
Imported from Poppy C.'s First Tutors profile before the site went dark. Shown separately from Tutorperch reviews — today they don't feed this tutor's Tutorperch rating or ranking.
How we verify these
Each imported review went through admin review. The tutor proved ownership of the First Tutors profile via one of two paths:
- Photo match. The First Tutors avatar matched the tutor's identity-verified Tutorperch photo, confirmed by admin.
- Cryptographic email check. The tutor uploaded an original First Tutors email (.eml). We verified the DKIM signature against First Tutors' signing keys and cross-checked the embedded tutor ID against the claimed profile.
The review text is the original reviewer's own words, quoted as-is. We verified the tutor's ownership of the profile, not the truth of what each individual reviewer wrote.

Poppy is an amazing tutor. My daughter had her first lesson with Poppy for GCSE Maths today and instantly felt relaxed and at ease. She came skipping downstairs saying she has already learnt so much and please could she continue with Poppy. It can be hard managing teenage anxiety and their ability to see that they can do it, just perhaps need a different angle to their learning. Honestly feel we have found a diamond in Poppy, cannot recommend enough.

Needed a tutor to help my Son prepare for his upcoming GCSE exams. Really clicked with him from the first lesson and he said that Poppy has a great way of explaining things that he was not able to get from his teachers at school. Would highly recommend Poppy.
