Bio
I am a Math lover. I strive for exceptional results academically, and I love inspiring others to do the same.
I feel that I take the effort that teachers don't have the time to do, to explain where a part of math originated, why it was necessary, how it can be derived, and all the little things surrounding the part of math that is difficult to people who struggle. I am a firm believer that it is much more time and mentally efficient to understand a concept rather than learning it off by heart.

Subjects
- School Tutoring
Mathematics
I have been tutoring specifically maths since Grade 9, and have continued to do so into my 2nd year of engineering. I have always loved maths and teaching. I believe my marks speak for themselves, enough so to consider myself proficient in Math.
Physics
I feel that my skillset in tutoring in Mathematics, also enables me to tutor Physics, as they are very much related.
Additional Mathematics
Maths is one of my passions. I am prepared to go the extra mile whilst simplifying this difficult subject.
Advanced Mathematics
I have been tutoring Math since grade 9, and have always loved it. I feel I go the extra mile whilst preparing to simplify hard subjects such as math, and would make a powerful addition to the Additional Math team.
Mathematics Literacy
I have been tutoring normal math since grade 9, with a few lessons of maths literacy in-between, and this math being seen as easier than regular math, I feel there are no reasons for me not to tutor it.
- University Tutoring
Mathematics
I have been tutoring for 6 years in purely mathematics. I felt it was time to join a company, with one of the reasons being that I wanted to start tutoring more complex mathematics. I have the experience and skillset to back it up.
Programming
I absolutely love programming in python and am currently doing my master's in artificial intelligence and optimization, which requires my standard of coding to be very high.

“Luke was awesome and Dylan loved having him as a tutor. He explains the work in a way that makes sense. Thank Luke for us from the bottom of our hearts. Dylan’s marks would not be the same without having had Luke. ”
