Online Maths and Physics Lessons

I'm currently a PhD student at Imperial College London in maths, specifically algebraic geometry. Before that I completed my Masters and Undergraduate degrees at Cambridge. I have a passion for education and have been teaching in various forms for the past 8 years (see section below)

I am an easy going individual who enjoys talking about maths with anyone! Currently, I enjoy running (especially around the Cambridge countryside) and exploring hidden corners of London.

Tutoring Experience

  • Private tutoring for GCSEs, A-levels and Cambridge/Oxford entrance exams (STEP + MAT) (8 years)
  • Supervising undergraduate courses at Cambridge (2 years)
  • Advising masters theses at Imperial College London (1 year)
  • Giving classes at international maths camps such as MBL (5 years)
  • Helping with mathematical outreach e.g. a tutor for Project Access (2 years)

Tutoring Approach

I am a very down to earth teacher who prefers to listen to the tutees questions and thoughts, and can turn them into a directed discussion on the spot. I feel the trouble with most online tutoring programs is they are too prepared and turn into just another online lecture, which is neither interesting nor beneficial. I prefer to interact with the student, simultaneously answering their questions while asking them questions of my own to keep them engaged. This has worked well so far, with many people I have tutored securing places in their top university choices, and more importantly, have a great understanding of the material as they have actually rediscovered it themselves during our discussions.
