About V Karthikgayan
I'm Karthik, 18, from Selangor. I graduated from Oasis International School with an American High School Diploma, CGPA 4.17, and I'm now reading for a Bachelor of Music Performance at Sunway University.
I tutor Maths, English and piano. The through-line in all three is the same: I'm interested in why something isn't landing, not in getting through material. Most students who think they're bad at a subject have a specific gap somewhere behind them, and once you find it the rest usually moves quickly.
Music is the other half of my life; ABRSM Grade 8 Distinction in Piano and Theory, and competition prizes from Vivace and Euroasia. Practising an instrument seriously for a decade teaches you something that transfers directly to Maths: progress is almost never about talent. It's about breaking the hard part into smaller parts and being honest about what you can't do yet.
I started tutoring because I was the student who needed things explained a second way before they made sense. I'm reliable with scheduling, I prepare before every lesson, and I'll tell you honestly if I don't think I'm the right tutor for your child.

What I care about most is genuine understanding, not memorising and not guessing. I'm a patient tutor and no question is too basic. If something isn't clicking, that's exactly where we should be spending our time.
What I teach
Primary Mathematics (Years 1–6, KSSR and international curricula). IGCSE Mathematics 0580 Extended. IGCSE Additional Mathematics 0606. SAT Math. SPM Mathematics and Additional Mathematics.
How lessons run
Trial lesson first, so I can find the actual gap rather than guess at it. A student losing marks on algebraic manipulation and a student losing marks on exam timing need completely different hours.
Concept before drill. We don't move on until the why is solid, because a formula you've memorised but don't understand is the first thing to go under exam pressure.
Targeted practice between sessions, and we open each lesson by going through what you got wrong. That's where most of the improvement actually happens — the hour together is for diagnosis, the week is for the work.
Patient pace. Happy to slow down, revisit, and explain a second way. Most students who think they're bad at Maths just haven't had it explained in a way that fits how they think.
Format
60-minute sessions. Online by video call, or in person. Free 30-minute trial lesson before anything is committed.
Recommendations

Karthik and I both went to the same high school. He is brilliant when it comes to any sort of explanation. I remember when we were in band together, he was often the one taking the lead and was good at pointing everyone in the right direction. He is also very patient he could explain this thoughts clearly. Also, if one still didn’t understand, he was more than happy to assist or try an explanation from a different angle. He has a great ear for rhythm and is a fantastic musician.
I highly recommend him. I am also a musician and I must say I learned a lot from him.I've known Karthik since the beginning of middle school, and he is easily one of the most hardworking and musically talented people I know. I still remember how impressed I was by his passion for music when we first bonded over our shared love of classical music.
Beyond his talent, Karthik is one of the kindest and most genuine people I've ever met. His teaching style is simple, clear, and easy to understand, making even challenging concepts approachable. He is patient, encouraging, and always willing to help others improve.
I wholeheartedly recommend Karthik to anyone looking for a dedicated and passionate piano teacher. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and ability to explain things clearly make him an excellent mentor. He is truly a gem, and I am grateful to have known him for so many years.Karthik has been a passionate player and tutor for my nieces. They enjoy his teaching method as he makes it simple and understandable. It is always worth to learn piano as it stimulates the mind, and learning with Karthik makes it enjoyable
I highly recommend Karthik. He’s a super talented tutor for piano lessons. He’s also passionate about his teaching towards music lessons which may help student learnings quickly.
