There are many people who can teach mathematics at any level and have not been a Teacher or trained for the profession. Its either they did well in the subject or enjoy the discipline.
Many students and candidates dont understand the difference between a tutor and an exam coach. They might be all teachers but coaching goes a step further to ensure that candidates answer questions as expected and prepare for exam specufic content.
The difference:
A tutor/teacher teaches you just maths principles and usually follows the title page of the textbook.
He ot she makes sure students and candidates know every chapter in the textbook but doesnt look much into exam areas.
A coach identifies Exam specific areas and concentrate on the exam questions and syllabus structure. He is there is to find the easiest, fast and accurate ways of dealing with exam questions.
Exam coaches are not concerned with completion of the syllabus but coverage of principles of regular exam topics or questions.
They identify your weakness and capitalize on your strength. They 'spot' the exam and can handle a poor performing candidate in less time than expected.
Who needs a Tutor/Teacher.
Teachers introduces new things to students. They guide the class in the study of a topic and uses textbooks.
School pupils and slow leaners definitely need a teacher. They need basics and indepth knowledge of every principle.
Who needs a Coach?
School leavers and working class need exam coach. They are familiar with some of the concepts. What they need is just how to use them in an exam situation.
Students who need to excel in Math also need a coach. Coaches find it very easy to make a student pass with an 'A', since they are quick to grasp concepts and have more time for revisions.
