bilikis s. Half price first lesson Teaches kids

Does your child struggle with maths, even after practising the same questions several times? Sometimes, the problem isn't a lack of effort. They simply need a different way of understanding the concept. Hello! I'm Bilikis, a patient and enthusiastic primary mathematics tutor from Nigeria. I help children aged 6–9 build strong mathematical foundations, understand mathematical concepts, and become more confident problem-solvers. My experience in children's education includes supporting young learners in developing foundational skills and creating engaging educational resources. I'm the creator of LearnFun, an educational mobile app available on Google Play that helps young children explore numbers, shapes, letters, and other early-learning concepts through interactive activities. I also developed My First CVC Words, a structured 30-day phonics workbook designed to help parents and teachers guide children through early reading. Through these experiences, I've developed a strong interest in making learning accessible, engaging, and suited to each child's individual needs. 2. My Teaching Experience and Approach When a child struggles with maths, I don't simply give them more questions. I first try to understand what they already know, where the confusion begins, and which explanation might help them understand better. I use the Concrete–Pictorial–Abstract (CPA) approach, guiding children from hands-on examples to visual representations before introducing mathematical symbols and formal methods. For example, when teaching addition, we might begin by counting real objects, move on to pictures or number lines, and finally solve the problem using numbers and mathematical symbols. This helps children understand not just how to solve a problem, but why the method works. I also use purposeful questioning to encourage children to explain their thinking, recognise patterns, and make connections between different mathematical concepts. Rather than immediately correcting a wrong answer, I might ask: - Can you show me how you got your answer? - What do you notice about these numbers? - Is there another way we could solve this? - How can we check whether our answer makes sense? I combine visual learning, interactive activities, real-life examples, and guided practice to make lessons engaging and meaningful. Because every child learns differently, I adapt my explanations, activities, and lesson pace to their individual abilities and learning needs. 3. What I Can Help Your Child Learn I support children with primary mathematics topics, including: - Number and place value: Counting, comparing, ordering, and understanding the value of digits. - The four operations: Addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. - Times tables: Understanding multiplication patterns and developing recall. - Fractions: Understanding halves, quarters, and other basic fractions. - Measurement and geometry: Length, mass, time, money, 2D shapes, and 3D shapes. - Number patterns: Recognising sequences and mathematical relationships. - Word problems and mathematical reasoning: Applying mathematical knowledge to everyday situations. - Problem-solving: Developing logical thinking and exploring different strategies. - Schoolwork and assessment support: Revising classroom topics and strengthening areas where additional practice is needed. My focus is on helping children build a solid understanding of mathematical concepts rather than relying only on memorisation. 4. Let's Make Maths Easier Together! Your child doesn't need to memorise every mathematical rule to succeed. They need to understand why a method works, explain their thinking, and apply what they've learnt to new problems. In my lessons, children are encouraged to ask questions, make mistakes, explore different approaches, and try again without fear. Whether your child is struggling with basic calculations, needs additional support with schoolwork, or wants to develop stronger problem-solving skills, we'll identify their learning needs and work through them step by step. During our trial lesson, we'll explore what your child already understands, identify areas where they need support, and discuss a personalised learning approach. Book a trial lesson with me, and let's help your child build stronger maths skills, grow in confidence, and discover that mathematics can be enjoyable!

My teaching experience includes supporting young children in developing foundational skills such as counting, number recognition, writing, and problem-solving. I've worked with children informally, adapting explanations and activities to their individual abilities and learning pace. Beyond teaching, I create an educational mobile app available on Google Play that helps young learners explore numbers, shapes, letters, and other foundational concepts through interactive activities. My teaching approach is guided by the Concrete–Pictorial–Abstract (CPA) method, helping children progress from practical objects and everyday examples to visual representations, mathematical symbols, and formal problem-solving methods. I use purposeful questioning to encourage children to explain their thinking, recognise patterns, and understand why mathematical methods work rather than simply memorising answers. A typical lesson begins with identifying what a child already understands and where they need support. I then use colourful visuals, interactive activities, guided practice, and real-life examples to make challenging concepts easier to understand. I support children aged 6–9 with number and place value, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, times tables, basic fractions, measurement, geometry, and mathematical reasoning. My lessons are patient, engaging, and personalised, creating an environment where children feel comfortable asking questions, learning from mistakes, and developing confidence in mathematics.
