With a strong multidisciplinary background, I offer tutoring in a wide range of subjects, including Mathematics, English, as well as verbal and non-verbal reasoning. My passion for teaching, particularly mathematics, drives me to make complex concepts easy to understand for students of all abilities. I specialise in breaking down difficult topics from first principles, ensuring that students not only grasp the concepts but also develop a deep, lasting understanding.

My approach is tailored to each student's unique learning style, and I pride myself on being patient, flexible, and highly organised. Whether your child needs a little extra support or is aiming for higher-level mastery, I will work tirelessly to help them achieve their academic goals. Many of my private students have significantly improved their grades under my guidance.

As a skilled communicator with strong analytical abilities, I excel in explaining and interpreting complex ideas in ways that are accessible and straightforward. Your success is my priority, and I strive to ensure that every lesson is both engaging and impactful.

Tutoring Experience

I have over 10 years of experience tutoring Mathematics, with a proven track record of helping students excel at all levels. In addition to my private tutoring work, I serve as a university lecturer, where I teach both home and international students. This experience has given me a wealth of knowledge, allowing me to guide students through each exam’s key concepts effectively.

I bring a blend of academic rigor and practical teaching strategies, having worked with students from diverse backgrounds and learning abilities. Whether it’s preparing for exams, mastering core skills, or building confidence in their abilities, my students consistently show marked improvement.

Tutoring Approach

I firmly believe that the most effective tutoring is student-focused, which means tailoring my lessons to each individual’s needs and learning preferences. My goal is to create a supportive and positive learning environment where students feel empowered and confident to succeed.

I prioritise building a strong foundational understanding, especially in subjects like Mathematics, which require conceptual clarity. By breaking down complex ideas into simple steps and providing hands-on practice, I ensure that my students can approach problems with confidence and critical thinking.

I also foster a growth mindset, helping students develop both academic skills and a positive attitude toward learning. Through consistent feedback, encouragement, and personalised learning strategies, I ensure that every student I work with has the tools they need for continuous improvement and long-term success.
