I am a chartered professional engineer committed to empowering students to achieve academic excellence. Excellent people skills and passion for education help me connect with my students and motivate them.

I look for their specific needs and concepts they need help with. I aim to overcome any barriers and make students comfortable, so they are open to learning. I track progress and understanding by checking homework to understand where students may need additional assistance. Then, I tailor my lessons accordingly. I match the lessons to the relevant curriculum to synchronize with schoolwork and assignments, and enhance school outcomes. I use high-quality materials developed by professional educators and/or the respective student's school textbook.

Each lesson runs for one hour online, via Zoom. Screen-sharing and flexible tools allow effective student interaction throughout the lesson. At the end of each lesson, parents are emailed progress feedback and screenshots of their kid's work. I'd be happy to discuss and accommodate specific requirements that could be beneficial to your child's progress. For more information and testimonials, google "BestEduLearn" to see our reviews.

  • When did you develop an interest in your chosen field and in private tutoring?

    Maths was my favourite subject throughout school and university. Teachers and lecturers used to suggest to other students to ask me for help when needed. Often, I'd wake up at night and solve maths problems :-) I have been using maths in my engineering career over the last 20 years. Several years ago, I decided that sharing my passion for mathematics is overdue and it is time to help others develop their skills and start loving maths, just as I do. I have been enjoying tutoring for the last three years.
  • Tell us more about the subject you teach, the topics you like to discuss with students (and possibly those you like a little less).

    Maths is fundamental and provides skills for life. It is essential that students grasp the basics at an early stage, in order to be able to develop further. Too often students miss that early engagement and learning, preventing them from further growth. I focus on making sure that students become comfortable with the basics first.
  • Did you have any role models; a teacher that inspired you?

    My role models are my parents, who work tirelessly and have taught me good values.
  • What do you think are the qualities required to be a good tutor?

    An appreciation that kids have varied skills. A good tutor should be able to adapt their teaching to the kid's skills and ensure that their teaching is clear and easy to understand. A skilled tutor has to seek feedback from the student to verify that they have understood the concepts being taught.
  • Provide a valuable anecdote related to your subject or your days at school.

    How do you make seven even? - Subtract the "s".
  • What were the difficulties or challenges you faced or are still facing in your subject?

    The greatest challenge is helping students overcome their anxiety about mathematics, which slows down their learning. I aim to help kids understand that they have the full potential to be good at maths if they put in the hard yard.
  • Do you have a particular passion? Is it teaching in general or an element of the subject or something completely different?

    I am passionate about maths and passing that on to my students. I enjoy seeing them grow and excel in their skills.
  • What makes you a Superprof (besides answering these interview questions)?

    My clients share common feedback about my patience with students and my ability to explain complex concepts in a simple way. So, I will call that my superpower 😊
