Janak

  • Highly experienced Mathematics / Statistics Teacher and former university professor of Mathematics.- Nearly 20 years of teaching experience in Pure/Applied Mathematics and Statistics.
  • PhD in Mathematics
  • Currently working as a Senior Researcher in Mathematical and Statistical Modelling in Drug Development at a leading international pharmaceutical industry.

Tutoring Experience

  • More than 20 ears experience in teaching in GCE A/L Pure Mathematics, Statistics, Mechanics and Further Mathematics across all major exams boards (OCR/IB/Edexcel/AQA/WJEC) and KS3, GCSE : Mathematics
  • More than 20 years university teaching experience.

Tutoring Approach

  • Student centred, working out problems (past exam material/text book and tailored problems for student) targeting the relevant exam level along-with students whilst building up the confidence and moving towards challenging tasks appropriate to the maximum competence and the potential of the student.

  • Covering subject knowledge and paper practice in parallel.

  • Students are free to communicate with me outside tutoring hours via Email/WhatsApp to clarify and help with problem solving tasks related to the lessons.

  • In addition, I find most of my students benefit from my experience as a former university professor as well as a leading researcher in industry with broad applications of mathematics and statistics, by being able to motivate them via discussing the background, history and relevance of Mathematics for instance in real world - medicine, finance and engineering. These help them shape up their future career pathways.
