About Me

I am an experienced, dedicated and knowledgeable professional with degrees in mathematics and mathematics teaching. Having studied Mathematics and Philosophy from 2013-2017 at St Hugh's College, University of Oxford, I am comfortable tutoring Mathematics to degree level, and having studied a Mathematics PGCE (a teacher training qualification) from the world-famous Institute of Education at UCL, I am especially experienced in tutoring key stages 3, 4 and 5 Mathematics.

Given my academic history, I am also comfortable in tutoring Philosophy, Religious Studies and Physics to key stage 5 level, as well as the Mathematics Admissions Test, which is used for admissions to Mathematics and Computer Science courses at the University of Oxford.
