About

Hello! My name is Allan. I offer in-person and online personalised tutoring to help students excel in mathematics. With postgraduate qualifications in Applied Mathematics, Computer Programming/Modelling, and Environmental Sciences, I possess a deep understanding of complex topics and a genuine passion for teaching. I currently work as a data scientist in the Australian Public Service (APS) and have an extensive teaching background, which includes: - **Lecturing and Research**: Experience at renowned Max Planck Institutes in Europe and universities in the UK. - **High School Teaching**: Providing mathematics instruction for GCSE and A-level students at a public comprehensive school in Liverpool, England. - **Tutoring Experience**: Supporting ACT students in Years 10-12 and assisting Junior High and Primary school children, with a proven track record of improving grades. As a tutor, my focus areas include: - **Flexibility and Patience**: Adapting to each student’s unique learning style. - **Motivation and Confidence**: Inspiring students to overcome challenges and achieve their academic goals. - **Results-Driven Teaching**: My students consistently demonstrate noticeable improvements in their performance. As a parent of three children, I understand the importance of providing a nurturing, supportive learning environment. For your peace of mind, I hold a valid Working With Vulnerable People (WWVP) registration in the ACT, ensuring the safety and well-being of my students. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your child’s needs or to ask any questions. Together, we can unlock their potential in mathematics! My rates are affordable: $50 per hour for primary school-aged children, $60 per hour for students in Years 7-9, and $70 per hour for students in Years 10-12. Thank you, and have a wonderful day!
