Reviews

Zian tutored me for the AMC last year. My previous tutor mainly went through questions and it became really clear after he explained it. However, I found that while doing the questions myself, I didn't know how to start and I couldn't solve them myself. But Zian's lesson structure was really different. He would often make me think on the spot on questions that I didn't know how to do, and then he would explain not only the solution, but also emphasised the thought process behind coming up with the solution! Thanks to this, I ended up getting prize on the AMC. Btw thanks Zian for helping me get these results!
