I am highly skilled in discerning a student's potential ability within a very short time - even if they think they "can't do maths." I am also very skilled in starting at the right place with whichever topic area need addressing. I am very patient in explaining different techniques, and I have a wide variety of different ways of explaining even difficult techniques. My success in tutoring Maths comes from many times releasing students from a prison that dictates to them that they cannot, and never will be able to understand Maths. I am a good communicator, and very adept at bringing into being the full potential of all students. I have many success stories of students who "hate" maths by turning many into excellent Mathematicians.

I have not always been a Maths teacher. I was the founder-member of a fairly successful rock band in the 70s and 80s: we recorded 7 albums and had a top-ten hit in 1978. We travelled all over the world, and one thing I discovered was that people are all the same! It doesn't matter which language you speak, what colour skin you have, or what you do in your life... the most important thing is to be warm and friendly to the people that are around you - I guess it's called "LOVE."
