Math for Kids (Ages 6–13): Confidence, Understanding, and Joy

Hello! My name is Stella. I have two university degrees: one in Clinical Psychology and one in Engineering Mathematics. This rare combination helps me see not just the numbers, but also how a child's mind works — where they struggle, why they feel stuck, and how to gently guide them forward.

I specialize in teaching children aged 6 to 13. Whether your child is just starting with basic arithmetic, needs support with fractions, pre-algebra, or geometry, or simply needs to build confidence in math — I'm here to help.

I also have extensive experience working with children with ADHD, dyslexia, dysgraphia, and other learning differences. I know how to adapt explanations, hold attention, and create a safe space where it's okay to make mistakes and ask questions.

Lessons are conducted in Russian, but all mathematical terms are explained in English as well — this helps children easily navigate international textbooks (Common Core) and prepares them for future bilingual learning environments.

More than 10 years of teaching experience, including 5 years fully online. I work with students from all over the world from my base in Cyprus.

The first lesson is a friendly diagnostic session — we'll get to know each other, assess strengths and areas for growth, and build a personalized learning plan.

About Me

Hello! I'm Stella.

I’ve always been fascinated by two things: how numbers work and how people think. That’s why I became both an Engineer-Mathematician and a Clinical Psychologist. These two paths may seem different, but together they give me a unique perspective on teaching. I don’t just explain formulas — I see how a child’s mind processes information, where it gets stuck, and how to gently guide it forward.

I’ve been teaching mathematics for over 10 years, with the last 5 years fully online. I love working with children aged 6 to 13, especially those who find math difficult or feel anxious about it. Every child is different, and I enjoy the challenge of finding that one explanation that makes things click.

I believe that math is not about memorising rules — it’s about understanding, curiosity, and confidence. My goal is to make sure every child leaves a lesson feeling a little smarter and a lot more confident.

Outside of teaching, I enjoy reading, traveling, and learning new things. I currently live in Cyprus and work with students from all over the world.

I look forward to meeting you and your child!

Здравствуйте! Я Стелла.

Меня всегда увлекали две вещи: как устроены числа и как работает человеческий мозг. Поэтому я стала и инженером-математиком, и клиническим психологом. Эти два образования помогают мне видеть в каждом ученике не просто школьника, а личность — со своими сильными сторонами, страхами и способами восприятия.

Я преподаю математику уже более 10 лет, из них 5 лет — онлайн. Больше всего я люблю работать с детьми от 6 до 13 лет, особенно с теми, кто считает математику сложной или скучной. Для меня нет ничего радостнее, чем видеть, как у ребёнка загораются глаза, когда он наконец понимает тему.

Убеждена, что математика — это не заучивание правил, а логика, любопытство и уверенность. Моя цель — чтобы после каждого занятия ребёнок чувствовал себя чуточку умнее и гораздо увереннее.

Живу на Кипре, работаю с учениками со всего мира. Буду рада познакомиться с вами и вашим ребёнком!

As a teaching professional, I have always enjoyed sharing my knowledge. My goal is to provide quality education. I am aware that some topics may seem complex, but often this is simply the result of an inadequate explanation by the teacher. With me, you will discover a real interest in the material!

We strive together to achieve academic excellence, overcoming the shortcomings and difficulties encountered by your child. Studies will become a pleasant experience for him. In addition to the courses, I can also help with school orientation, identifying their preferences and highlighting the advantages and benefits of a fulfilling educational ambition.

The sessions generally take place according to the following stages:

1️⃣ The first sessions are devoted to the assessment of the student's level in order to detect existing gaps.

2️⃣ Next, we create a personalized plan to address these gaps, including the number of hours of work needed, specific areas to focus on, and appropriate training and development exercises.

3️⃣ We stay in constant contact with the student's class teacher, to keep up to date with the latest requirements and ensure a consistent approach.

4️⃣ Subsequently, I provide exams similar to those that are likely to be asked in class, to prepare the student effectively.

5️⃣ Upon request, I write a regular report, usually monthly, to keep parents informed of their child's progress throughout their course.

I adapt my methodology according to the specific needs of each student, thus offering them a personalized and adapted work approach.

In addition, I offer crash courses for students preparing for the start of the school year, allowing them to start the year well prepared, with a solid lead on the school curriculum.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me. I will be happy to help you.

I offer one-to-one Maths tuition for GCSE, A-Level, and university students, both online and in person around Birmingham. Whether your child is struggling with the basics, preparing for upcoming exams, or aiming for top grades, I tailor every lesson to where they actually are — not where a textbook assumes they should be.

What I cover:

GCSE Maths (all exam boards — AQA, Edexcel, OCR)
A-Level Maths and Further Maths
University-level Maths for engineering and science students
Specific topics: algebra, trigonometry, calculus, statistics, mechanics, logic

How I teach:
I break difficult concepts down into simple steps, use plenty of worked examples, and give students clear practice between sessions. I'm patient with mistakes, encouraging when things feel hard, and honest about what needs work. Lessons are structured but relaxed students should feel comfortable asking "silly" questions, because those are usually the most important ones.
Exam season is right now, so if your child has GCSEs or A-Levels coming up, the next few weeks are the most important time to get focused support. I have limited slots available and can usually start within a few days.

Many students lose confidence in math over the school year - not from lack of ability, but from pace, gaps, or one bad unit that never got resolved. This summer program (through mid-September) is built to fix that before the new year starts, not just review generally.
I work with middle and high school students, including IB, to close specific gaps not a broad refresher, but targeted work on exactly what's holding a student back. I bring the same structured, evidence-based approach I use with my university-admission students: identify precisely what's missing, build a plan around it, and track real progress, not just hours logged.
Best for students who want a calm, focused reset before the new academic year begins not for open-ended tutoring with no target
