My name is George Guest and I am the tutor for Sum Support. I am currently taking a gap year before I go on to university.
I am very familiar with the 11+ syllabus, having taken both the Kent and Bexley tests myself in 2012, and having coached my younger brother (to a place at Beths Grammar School) when he did his 11+ in 2014. Since then I have been tutoring regularly, both for the 11+ and up to GCSE level.
I’m sure I will be able to help your child too!
In my GCSEs, I achieved a Level 9 Grade in Maths, and in my A-levels I achieved A*s in Maths and Further Maths.
Since starting at St Olave’s I have completed a Lower Project Qualification (“Did Mozart use mathematical ratios in his music”) in 2015, for which I was awarded an A* grade. In 2018, I completed a Higher Project (“How did the Reformation affect mathematics in the 16th and 17th centuries?”), for which I achieved an A* and full marks.
I have represented the school in national mathematical events, such as the UKMT Maths Olympiads (for which I was awarded gold certification), and in the Team Maths Challenge (where St Olave’s came third out of over 3000 schools in 2016).
In January 2017, I was invited to participate in the national final of the Bebras Computational Thinking Challenge, hosted by Oxford University.
