About Michael
Hello! I am Michael, a 24 year old from Belfast who has just recently graduated from an MSc programme in Mathematics from Durham University.
I completed my A-Levels in 2017, getting an A* in Maths, Further Maths, and Chemistry with an A in Physics. I performed particularly well in Maths, achieving 593/600 UMS. I then went on to get my BSc in Mathematics from Durham University in 2021, starting my MSc in that same year.
I have always had a huge enthusiasm for all facets of my subject, especially the teaching aspects! I first started tutoring fellow students when sitting my GCSE's in 2015, and have continued tutoring on and off all the way through my undergraduate degree. I started to take tutoring more seriously during the lockdowns in 2020 and, after taking a brief break to focus on my MSc thesis, I am back for good!
As I was tutoring and studying throughout lockdown, I have become proficient in delivering online lessons. I am adept with using a stylus and online whiteboard, and understand their importance in delivering a clear and effective online session.

One of the main realisations I have come to after years of studying maths has been the importance of building confidence and developing problem solving skills. Unfortunately, it has been my experience that these skills are not often promoted, with the emphasis being put instead on calculation and memorisation. While these are both useful, I find the real challenge of the subject comes from having the patience and confidence to tackle unfamiliar concepts and problems head on.
In this way, I believe I can add real value to students of all levels. In my lessons, I promote and encourage a deeper understanding of the topics involved. I do this by creating a collaborative space, where myself and the student both work together through carefully curated problems to gain a full understanding of the concepts used. Rather than teach the student to simply copy example answers, I prefer to ensure the student understands the example answers and what makes them work. I find this helps them to develop greater confidence and hone their problem-solving skills.

Perfect! Michael was extremely patient and takes the needs of the student and where they are at on board. He makes the lessons fun, supportive and allows the individual to attempt for example questions or explain their working out and then together they put it to practice to see if it matches. He made me feel welcome and make the process more enjoyable and proactive. I look forward to my next session with him.

Michael is a very knowledgeable mathematician and dedicated tutor. He went out of his way to establish the specific needs of my niece studying A level maths and adapted his teaching methods accordingly with great results. I couldn’t recommend him more strongly ️️️️️
Michael is a brilliant and engaging mathematician with a real passion for teaching and helping others to both understand and enjoy Maths. He works with his pupils to grow their confidence and give them different tools to tackle any problems. I highly recommend Michael as a tutor!
Before my sessions with Michael I was feeling very overwhelmed with my Maths. His ability to explain the really complicated concepts in easy to understand ways, all while making me feel comfortable and able to make mistakes, saw my skills soar! I highly recommend Michael as a tutor.

Michael is not only a very talented mathematician but also a great teacher of the subject. He has a remarkable ability to break down the toughest of concepts into smaller comprehensive parts as well as being a very patient and approachable person.
Michael is one of most trustworthy tutors I know. His ability to explain new concepts in an engaging way is unparalleled.
