Skills are built not born.

Be strong enough to stand alone, smart enough to know when you need help, and brave enough to ask for it.

Don't expect to be good at maths or understand things straight away. Be patient and persistent. The most powerful warriors are patience and time.

GCSE and A Level Maths are a marathon not a sprint

We all make mistakes. What matters is how we choose to move forwards from them.

Don’t be afraid to work hard and find out how good you can really be.

There is no elevator to success, you have to take the stairs.

Good mathematics is not about how many answers you know... It is about how you behave when you don't know.

Success is not final, failure is not fatal.  It is the courage to continue that counts.

You can be shown the path, but only you can make the first step.

Hard work always pays off - it is not a question of if you will get there, but WHEN you will get there

You can hire a tutor but you can't hire someone to practice for you.

You can have results or excuses, not both

Whenever you find yourself doubting how far you can go, just remember how far you have come.

Instead of finding reasons why you can't, find reasons why you can.
