I feel I have everything I wanted to with school tuition so I am looking for a new challenge with adult/degree tuition!

I have a consistent record helping students gain acceptance into London`s most prestigious schools through the 7+, 8+, 9+, 10+, 11+ or 13+ entrance exams, as well as routinely exceeding expectations by unlocking students potential for A* grades from Primary to GCSE level.

I have earned a reputation not only for outstanding results, but also for inspiring a long-term love of learning in my students. These are reflected by an abundance of testimonials, available to read below, that validate results and a positive change in attitude towards Maths.

As a young dynamic tutor, I get along great with kids and offer a uniquely enthusiastic and imaginative approach that students respond to. My affable nature paired with my breadth of knowledge, allows me to offer the very best tuition to children of all ages and backgrounds.

My belief is that the key to long term academic success is in encouraging a genuine curiosity which expands well beyond the limitations of government syllabi, paving the way for study and understanding at the highest level.

I am kept very busy by referrals, as my tutoring families regularly recommend me to their colleagues and friends. As such, please accept my apologies if I`m a little slow to reply during busy periods. I always write back as soon as I can.

Education:
1st in Engineering from the University of Western Australia as a scholarship student
Also received academic scholarships for exchanges to New York University and University of Sydney.

Hobbies & Interests:
Music (Singing, Guitar, Piano), Sports (Gymnastics, Football, Surfing), Drawing, Cooking, Reading.

APPROACH TO TUITION:

As a maths tutor, I animate and energise every area of study, especially those areas that a student has previously considered dull and disinteresting. I always promote the most thorough understanding and spirit of inquiry, and through the unique interests of the individual, I build long-lasting connections with the most fascinating areas of each subject, forming a firm foundation to ensure that my students are able to excel well beyond my time with them.

My goal with tutoring is to catalyse independence, not dependence as most tutors do, by showing students their own potential. I know from experience that every individual has the potential to achieve great things, and I love to help my students to strengthen their sense of self worth, and travel on a trajectory towards leaving a positive mark on the world.

I`m a young, dynamic, relatable and enthusiastic tutor that loves to teach and gets a great sense of pride from my students success. I am intuitive, patient and affable with every student, regardless of background. I always endeavour to be the best tutor I can be and provide the best results for my students.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND 1.5 HOUR SESSIONS OR LONGER:
75% of my students are primary school students all enjoying 1.5 hour sessions because fun time reward system (see below). Hour long lessons seem to end just as you are really getting into a topic that`s why all my current 20 students have 1.5 hour sessions or longer. From my extensive experience it is clear that 1.5+ hour sessions are much more productive, comprehensive and effective at achieving results.

I still teach 1 hour sessions but at 55/hour.

FUN TIME REWARD SYSTEM (FOR YOUNGER STUDENTS):
With all my younger students we have 15 minutes at the end for fun time where we do together whatever they want - games, drawing etc. I have a fantastic selection of fun and educational games that keep your child asking when the next tutoring session is! These are not your average boring educational games, these are games that kids REALLY like and constantly nag you to play - these are the games that get results. This is used as a powerful reward system that has consistently proven to get remarkable results even in the most stubborn, unmotivated and easily distracted students. At a young age tutoring is seen as boring, not with the fun time reward system!

FREE FIRST LESSON/CONSULTATION:
The relationship between the tutor and student strongly affects the effectiveness of tuition so I like to give a free introduction lesson to see if we `click` and you like the way I teach. It`s also a consultation where we discuss where your child is at and where they would like to be. The length of the free first session indicates the length of following regular paid lessons.

With the free first lesson there`s nothing to lose, so help your child today!

Availability: I am a full time tutor with usually 15 students at a time and get too many requests to keep updating my current availability, so please get in touch so we can find the best time!

Experience: “My son connected with him from day one. Our son was at a very low ebb with his Maths, and Daniel stepped in and made real progress. From the first lesson, Daniel helped him to find the gaps in his knowledge and was able to get him to feel that he really understood. They worked together on anything that was challenging, and Daniel made such a difference. I think Daniel is an excellent teacher and we feel that our son has benefited enormously.” – S D, mother (GCSE)

“The kids are very happy with your tutoring and so am I. They tell me that your lessons are excellent, and really building their confidence. We have put our faith in you Daniel. For the first time, our daughter has started to achieve top grades. We’ve also noticed other positive changes she’s a lot more sociable now too.” – T K, father (GCSE and KS3)

“You’ve got a real talent: I can see that the you communicate with my son is really special you get down to his level, you make friends, and you really connect.” L H, father (Year 3)

"I can see that you`ve already made immense progress in the areas where our son is struggling. I`m really impressed with how much more easily he`s working things out now. I tried and couldn`t help him like you have!" - S W, father (11+)

“You’ve made it so much clearer I thought I was never going to get this. I actually understand it all now!” – B S, student (8+)

“Daniel is full of energy and full of life. It is infectious! He can explain some very complex maths by chopping the material down into much more concise ideas. Entire double page spreads are condensed into an equation and a couple of bullet points. My daughter tells me that concepts that seemed complicated now seem easy, and that working with Daniel has saved her hours of struggling with revision. And if she’s interested in a particular idea, he is fully able to expand beyond the syllabus too! He is a real genius, and the house brightens up each time with his presence!” – V N, mother (GCSE)

“I showed E’s teacher what she’s been learning with you. She was really impressed she says they’re nowhere near that in school. E is way ahead of the class. She’s doing so much better this year thanks to you Daniel.” – A B, mother (11+)
