About Olivia
I have over 6 years of experience tutoring mathematics and hold a Master of Mathematics (MMath) degree. One of my greatest passions is the history of mathematics and how mathematical thought has evolved over time. I love exploring the contributions of ancient civilizations, from the Babylonians to the Greeks, and sharing the fascinating stories behind famous theorems and discoveries. When I teach, I don’t just focus on formulas and problems. I guide students to appreciate the cultural and intellectual journey that shaped mathematics. Understanding where ideas come from helps students connect more deeply with the subject. It brings math to life and shows how it has influenced science, technology, and society across centuries. I invite students to join me in delving into this rich history. Together, we explore the origins of numbers, patterns, and logic. By learning about the people and moments that shaped math, you’ll gain a new appreciation and confidence in your own mathematical journey. Let’s uncover the story behind the numbers and make learning an exciting adventure.

My teaching approach centers on building a deep conceptual understanding of higher mathematics, especially in areas like abstract algebra, number theory, and mathematical proofs. I believe that gentle guidance and reflective thinking help students grasp complex ideas more fully. Rather than rushing through topics, I encourage careful exploration and thoughtful questioning.
I focus on helping learners discover their own unique paths to understanding challenging theorems. This method is ideal for DIY learners and researchers who enjoy diving into the details and making connections at their own pace. By fostering curiosity and patience, I guide students to develop confidence in advanced theoretical concepts.
Support is key in excelling at higher math. I provide a thoughtful, tailored experience that nurtures each student’s mathematical thinking. Together, we uncover new ways to approach problems and build a stronger, more intuitive relationship with mathematics.
