Experience
As a full-time specialist Mathematics tutor of over 5 years he has many thousands of hours of experience including, for example, over 3000 hours of undergraduate level tuition and over 1000 hours of STEP tuition. In that time he has been fortunate enough to tutor hundreds of students the world over: on five continents, at least 10 countries (and even from Jersey!) as well as at a large number of institutions including: Durham University, Imperial College London, King’s College London, The Open University, the London School of Economics, Queen Mary University of London, and the Universities of Birmingham, Cambridge, Chicago, Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow, St Andrews, Strathclyde, Surrey, Toronto and Oxford.
Since September 2017 he has also provided over 100 hours of voluntary GCSE tuition with The Access Project, a charity providing tuition to driven students from disadvantaged areas. Beginning in the academic year 2019-2020 (specifically August 2019) he also provided around 100 hours of voluntary STEP tuition to two groups of prospective Cambridge applicants, two of which went on to study Mathematics at Cambridge and another went on to study at Imperial.
Through The Profs he has produced revision notes summarising key definitions and results for a variety of undergraduate mathematics modules at KCL - namely: Classical Dynamics, Financial Mathematics 1, Linear Algebra and Geometry 1, Probability and Statistics 2, Real Analysis and Time Series Analysis.
In addition he has extensive experience with LaTeX (typesetting favoured by the sciences). Moreover, he has extensive experience in using the computer via voice activation software (Dragon NaturallySpeaking), in particular TeXing by voice.
