About Micah
Hi, I'm Micah Lam, a sixth-form student based in the UK tutoring GCSE Maths and Further Maths. After achieving 11 grade 9s at GCSE level I will be studying both Maths and Further Maths for A-level.
Becoming a tutor stems from my interest and curiosity for maths, as I enjoy discovering both the abstract concepts and its real world applications alike. As a friendly, patient, and calm tutor, I would tutor students by clearly breaking topics down to their fundamentals and building up knowledge block by block, so they understand the reasoning behind a method rather than just memorising steps for a mark scheme, and can also have profound layered knowledge for each topic (Full lesson description in section below!!!). I will adapt sessions and learning styles to where the student actually is and the specific topic taught— whether that means slowing down on a weak spot or moving faster for students prepared to be stretched and challenged.
My end goal as a tutor and student myself isn't just to get through the content, but to leave students with greater confidence in their mathematical ability, developing curiosity and interest in maths all the while feeling tested.

My Qualifications are 11 Grade 9s in these following subjects at GCSE level:
Maths, Further Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, English Language, English Literature, Geography, Design and Technology, Computer Science, and Religious Studies.
My experience as a tutor stems from volunteering previously for a charity organisation to teach underprivileged students 11+ Maths (before I completed my GCSEs).
These lessons are for anyone taking their GCSE Maths and Further Maths in the coming years. As a student myself, I fully understand the confusion, struggle, and anxiety new topics and exams can get, or the curiosity which arises from interesting lessons. My lessons are for those who want more help with understanding difficult maths, those who want to learn ahead to be prepared, and also those who are nervous for exams and want to strive for higher grades alike.
A typical lesson would start with 5 minutes of starter questions to lightly introduce a topic or review previous knowledge, followed by good and great learning objectives to introduce our topic for the day. We would then start our main part of the lesson with the concept being clearly taught with worked examples and links to previous knowledge allowing the student to gradually ease themselves into the new topic with profound layered understanding. Students can then have guided practice with the help of myself, before starting independent practice, allowing them to develop confidence through being stretched and challenged. Before progressing through every stage of the lesson, students will be asked questions to ensure their knowledge is concrete, ensuring they do not feel overwhelmed and lost throughout the lesson. Finally, a typical lesson would end with an exit ticket, a question students solve to prove their knowledge. During this final phase, questions can be asked, misconceptions can be clarified, and homework. All of this is to ensure that students are not left confused, and to counteract the forgetting curve, providing weekly consistent practice to strengthen their confidence and mathematical ability.

Micah and I met in secondary school, and we were both in the same sets for the duration of our time there. Not only was he by far the most academically gifted student in our year, but he was also excellent at explaining various topics and subjects to those around him who didn't understand them. In addition to him explaining various things to me over the years, I also got to attend a local maths competition with him in Year 10, where we managed to come third largely due to his contribution. Aside from his obvious intelligence, he is a pleasure to be around, and I couldn't think of anyone more fit for tutoring. If you want to ace your exams, choose Micah!!!
Micah is a very patient teacher and always willing to explain things multiple times. I shared a maths class with him for many years and I struggled quite a lot with the subject. Micah was incredibly good at explaining things to me and was very helpful with my work. I actually managed to achieve above my predicted grade in maths and I am convinced that I owe some of that to him. I cannot recommend him enough as a tutor.
I’ve known Micah for over five years, and I can wholeheartedly recommend him as a Maths tutor. Throughout this time, he has consistently shown himself to be patient, polite, and genuinely attentive — always taking the time to listen carefully to a student’s needs before working out the best way to help.
What I appreciate most about Micah’s teaching approach is how he breaks down concepts clearly and adapts his explanations depending on how a child learns best, rather than sticking to a one-size-fits-all method. His own outstanding academic record, alongside his achievements in music, gives him a real depth of understanding when it comes to building both confidence and discipline in a student.
Micah has regularly helped tutor both my son and daughter, and I’ve seen first-hand how encouraging and reassuring he is with them — even when they’ve struggled with a topic, he never makes them feel discouraged, and he always finds a way to make the lesson feel manageable and worthwhile.
I have no hesitation in recommending Micah to any family looking for a dedicated, kind, and highly capable tutor.Micah and I went to high school together, and during our GCSEs, he helped me with any maths problem I was stuck on. Micah was the reason I got higher than a four in my maths GCSE, and he even got all 9s on his! Micah has enormous resolve; I’m sure he can help any person who needs it.
I am a friend of Micah’s from secondary school and he is the academically smartest person I have ever met, and was working to do a GCSE in advanced mathematics while the rest of us (in the top set) were still studying for regular mathematics, and his grades speak for themselves (9 in everything!). He has frequently helped me with maths problems that our teachers couldn’t even solve with a step by step approach to ensure anyone can follow along, and his dedication to education and educating is truly remarkable. I have never known anyone to be so willing to set aside their time to help someone else who’s struggling, especially with such patience and understanding. Micah has already been such an amazing, friendly, sensible and patient tutor to my schoolmates, friends and I myself, and I would very highly recommend him as a tutor
