About Me

I’m a retired civil engineer with a lifelong love for mathematics and problem-solving. After years of working on real-world engineering projects, I now channel my passion into tutoring students in math. I enjoy helping learners gain confidence, understand core concepts, and see the practical side of math in everyday life. With a calm, patient approach, I tailor my teaching to each student’s needs—making math not only understandable but enjoyable. Outside of teaching, I love puzzles, exploring how math connects to the world around us, and sharing that curiosity with others.

Experience

As a retired civil engineer with a strong foundation in applied mathematics, I bring real-world problem-solving experience to my role as a math tutor. My background allows me to explain mathematical concepts in a practical, relatable way, helping students understand not just how to solve problems, but why the solutions work. Since retiring, I’ve dedicated my time to tutoring students in mathematics, focusing on building their confidence, improving their foundational skills, and making math both

Approach

My approach to tutoring math is patient, supportive, and student-centred. I focus on building a strong foundation by breaking down complex concepts into simple, understandable steps. I encourage students to ask questions, think critically, and develop problem-solving skills, rather than just memorising formulas. I also tailor each session to the student's pace and learning style, aiming to boost their confidence and help them see math as a useful and manageable subject.
