Introduction
I am an international mathematics teacher and tutor with over 10 years of experience helping students build confidence and improve exam performance. I specialize in IB Mathematics, including AA and AI, SL and HL, as well as IGCSE, A Level, and advanced high-school mathematics. I have taught in international schools and worked with students from different backgrounds, abilities, and exam systems. My lessons are structured, clear, and focused on real progress. I help students understand the ideas behind the formulas, avoid common mistakes, and learn how to approach difficult exam questions step by step. I am especially good at working with students who are smart but struggle with speed, confidence, careless errors, or interpreting long exam questions. I studied applied mathematics and physics at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology and also completed an iPGCE. My teaching style combines strong subject knowledge with patience, practical exam strategy, and clear explanations. Whether you need support with regular schoolwork, exam preparation, or aiming for a top grade, I can help you create a focused plan and improve consistently.
