Peter Halfpenny - Maths Tutor and Science Tutor

Retirement

In early 2024 I reached retirement age but have continued working for a little longer to see my existing students through to their GCSE or A level exams. For many of us, reaching retirement age doesn’t necessarily mean stopping working and at the moment, I am undecided whether I will be continuing with tuition work in the future or not. What I have decided, though, is that I’m going to take a break for the next year at least. I’ll review things next summer (2025).

Parents' comments

Rod and Theresa Smith, Winsley

"When our son was in his second year he lacked confidence in maths and knew that he wasn’t achieving his full potential. He was so concerned, and unhappy, that he asked us if he could have extra help. Luckily we found Peter and started individual tuition to initially get him through this difficult patch. Peter’s patient and calm manner put our son at ease and the one-to-one teaching meant that he was able to ask questions freely, sorting out any problems and misunderstandings that he had. Peter was also able to help with physics and chemistry as well – an added bonus and our son’s increased understanding and confidence in maths also meant that he got the most from his classroom lessons. Our son enjoyed and benefited so much from Peter’s lessons that he wanted to continue! This he did and with his examinations at GCSE and A level he achieved A*s in all his maths and science subjects. We therefore have no hesitation in highly recommending Peter for private tuition."
