FRANKIE GRIEW

Maths Tuition from Numeracy to AS

I have thirty years’ experience teaching mathematics at a range of levels, both individually and as a class teacher. My class teaching experience included GCSE, adult numeracy, maths support workshops, and five years teaching predominantly A-level (2007-2012). In February 2013 I set up Maths Don’t Panic to offer professional maths tuition in the West Midlands and, since 2020, also online. 

I am a supportive maths tutor, working with you in the way that works best for you. I have long experience with neurodiversity including my own. I am experienced in teaching students with specific learning disabilities such as dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia and ADHD as well as autistic spectrum conditions. I have tutored students aged 5 to 60-something. I love the variety in my tuition work, and have a passionate commitment to diversity, inclusivity and equality. 

I am based in Brierley Hill in the West Midlands. I offer maths tuition both in person and online.  Face-to-face I work either at the student’s home, or in a room in my house near Merry Hill Centre. Online I use a combination of Zoom, a shared online whiteboard (BitPaper) and a variety of resources. I aim to make every lesson enjoyable as well as productive.

Maths Don’t Panic tuition is tailored to the needs of the student, adapting teaching strategies to suit the individual: 

  • Building on strengths
  • Developing confidence 
  • Deepening understanding
  • Empowering independent learning
  • Increasing success

I offer maths tuition in Stourbridge, Halesowen, Brierley Hill, Hagley, Netherton, Cradley Heath, Edgbaston, Bearwood, Rowley Regis, South West Birmingham, Dudley and surrounding areas of the West Midlands – and online, wherever you are.

as well as ongoing tuition for all ages and abilities.

What They’re Saying

Frankie is a great tutor who has worked successfully with all three of my daughters despite them having very different abilities. Whether your child is a struggling mathematician who needs patient reassurance or a high-flier who needs to be challenged, Frankie caters for all. Lessons are well planned to identify and plug gaps in learning, ensuring that students make progress and achieve great results in exams. I can't thank Frankie enough for helping my girls and saving me from trying to do it myself!

RachaelParent of three GCSE students (and Primary School Assistant Headteacher)

You came to support my son with his maths over four years ago when he came out of school and started being home educated. I can honestly say the support you delivered has been extremely flexible, well considered and kind - at all times you have been professional and good humoured! He was not always able to attend lessons and your wise and holistic approach to this has been a very large part of his journey towards entry back into education at college level and achieving his very good GCSE maths result - for ever grateful!

SarahParent of a home-educated student

My son wasn’t able to do his GCSEs last year. He elected to do maths and further maths at A level but of course the current academic year has also been much disrupted. Frankie has helped him build up his confidence in his ability and been patient whilst he processes various topics. He has been very well supported by Frankie and it has helped him keep abreast of what he is doing at school. Thank you so much!

MaryParent of an A-Level student

I really struggled with maths and was finding it extremely challenging. Now my grade has gone from “ungradable” to a high 4/5. Frankie is extremely good at explaining, catering to your needs and making maths easy!

EveGCSE student

Before I started with Frankie I was told that I would only get a “U” in maths. My confidence was knocked and I wasn’t sure if I’d ever get the grade I needed to achieve. However Frankie has been so supportive and always finds a way to help. Frankie tailors your teaching to you and uses methods you understand. I always feel confident after the lesson and feel that I have a better understanding of the work.
I really would recommend Frankie. They’re a great teacher - kind, funny and understanding. I have gone up from a grade “U” all the way to reaching fours in mock papers.
