Maths is my second language, if not the first! With a first class honours degree from Edinburgh University, I further studied maths at Cambridge to master level.

Now I am running a startup in London. I keep on tutoring during my spare time, because I like to share my insights on scientific subjects, and glad to help students to build their confidence in studies. Moreover, I do believe tutoring is a two way communications, and I have learnt a lot from my students as well. They span from GCSE to my classmates at uni , all the way up to graduate students from Imperial College. Best of all, I became friends with them after tutoring.

Moreover, I have been involved in a charity project on education, and I would like to build my experience in this area regardless what my day job is.

By the way, if you want to try Mandarin, I am more than happy to help:)

Tutoring Experience

I believe tutoring is a two way communication, and I have learnt a lot from my students as well. They span from GCSE to my classmates at uni , all the way up to graduate students from Imperial College. Best of all, I became friends with them after tutoring.

The whole learning process is structured and organised. Thirdly, when specific questions are discussed, in addition to cover the general points, I would emphize the points that he/she is struggling with. And always try to guide student’s thought process so that they can think of the solutions independently thereafter. Last but not least, when I summerize a subject, I would always try to link the syllabus in a more intuitive way, so that students will be more comfortable and confident with the subject.

Some of the modules I have taught:

IB: AA SL/HL, AI SL/HL
University:
Statistics [with softwares like Excel and R etc.]
Probability

Time Series
Optimization
Linear Algebra
Groups and Rings
Lie Algebra
Topology
Number Theory
Game Theory
Real Analysis
Complex Analysis
Differential Geometry
Calculus
ODE [Ordinary Differential Equation]
PDE [Partial Differential Equation]
SDE [Stochastic Differnetial Equation]
Fourier Transformation
Laplace Transformation
General Relativity

Tutoring Approach

1) Not only do I know how, but I fully grasped why as well.

2) I would first and foremost try to understand student’s difficulties and objectives out of the tuitions. And then propose a bespoke tuition outline for the student to agree, so that the whole learning process is structured and organised. Thirdly, when specific questions are discussed, in addition to cover the general points, I would emphize the points that he/she is struggling with. And always try to guide student’s thought process so that they can think of the solutions independently thereafter. Last but not least, when I summerize a subject, I would always try to link the syllabus in a more intuitive way, so that students will be more comfortable and confident with the subject.
