I am a tutor specialising in Mathematics, Engineering and Coding with 8+ years’ experience tutoring mathematics at a high school level, as well as mathematics, science, coding and engineering at a university and tertiary level. With extensive experience teaching, I have developed a teaching style and pedagogical method that focuses both on the difficult questions, and also skills for independent problem solving and methods for thinking about and tackling the problem that enables you to improve long-term, and be eventually able to have a strong foundation and skillset to solve new, difficult questions yourself.

Josh is a great maths tutor, very patient and excellent with his teaching strategies. Josh has helped both our son and daughter with Yr 9 and Yr 12 mathematics, they both struggled with school maths in the beginning, but since josh's teaching, they have seen great improvements both to their grades and their confidence in solving mathematical problems, especially the difficult ones. Josh is definitely an asset to our family no doubt! we highly recommend josh if you're looking for a knowledgeable, clear and helpful maths tutor

Josh is an amazing maths tutor who has tutored my son for 3 years now. My son really enjoys learning from Josh and is growing to really improve and love maths and science. He went from not being able to understand most the exam paper, to now achieving top of his class. We are very grateful for Josh’s support and teaching throughout the years. Highly recommend him!
