A brief introduction
My passion for mathematics, sparked in adolescence, has taken me across regions, countries, and continents, culminating in a PhD in Pure Mathematics from the University of Liverpool and a career as a secondary school maths teacher in Bristol. Teaching students aged 11 to 17 from diverse backgrounds, I have been privileged to support both their academic growth and personal development.
I believe that, with patience and the right guidance, anyone can master mathematics—not just for exams, but for life. Rather than obstacles, exams can be milestones in a student’s journey, fostering resilience and growth. My student-centred approach ensures that every learner feels welcomed, supported, and empowered to see mathematics not as a hurdle, but as a powerful tool to understand the world, unlock their potential, and approach challenges with confidence.
