Michael

Hello, I'm Michael. I'm a highly experienced tutor and fully qualified teacher with 10+ years teaching in some of London's highest achieving schools, including King's Maths School, which has the best A-Level maths results in the UK.

I studied at Oxford University, and did an MA at King's College London before training to become a Maths teacher.

In 2020 I was nominated for Bath University Teach of the Year.

I am also a part-time musician (cello, guitar and singing with my band) and a keen long-distance cyclist (recently completing a London to Istanbul ride).

Tutoring Approach

My approach to tutoring aims to develop confidence and fluency, but also promote deeper understanding and enjoyment of maths at all levels. I bring enthusiasm, years of experience and a genuine love of maths to my work, and have a track record of helping students exceed expectations and predicted grades.
