I work as a private maths tutor so I need a constant stream of supplies to keep my students engaged. Any comments you have on how to improve or extend any of my worksheets would be hugely appreciated. I hope you find what's here helpful - I've only uploaded the resources that have proved successful with my students, anything that didn't go down so well has either been editted or binned!

Read the Question Properly! (Freebie!)

(1)
One of the biggest challenges I find as a private tutor is students not reading the questions or instructions properly - it drives me mad! This exercise is one I've been meaning to make for a while, a whole list of questions most of which can be done at all ages (I've included the word doc so you can edit it) but they're time consuming and tedious. Question 3 is the only nice one: What is 1+2? The beginning tells them to read all the questions and instructions before they start - the end tells them they only have to do question three. It'll be nice and easy for those that read it properly, and a lot of effort for those that don't! I also included a note saying working and answers should be written on the paper (at the beginning) so if you set it as homework they can't get away with doing it on another piece of paper and pretending they did it properly! I print this from a PDF reader in "Multiple" setting so I get two copies on one page, that's why there's two the same in each file. Also works in normal A4 settings :)
