Shan is one of our best Maths tutors. High-quality profile, qualifications verified, organised and responsive to lesson requests, and appreciated by their students.
About Shan
I am a qualified Teacher and experienced Mathematics tutor providing one-to-one tuition from 11+ through to GCSE, IGCSE, O-Level, A-Level, and first-year university Mathematics.
I hold Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) in the UK and graduated from the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) with a BSc in Accounting & Finance. I am currently completing an MSc in Mathematics at Birkbeck, University of London, further strengthening my advanced mathematical expertise.
Alongside private tutoring, I have extensive classroom experience as a Further Education (FE) College Mathematics Lecturer, teaching GCSE and A-Level Mathematics to students with a wide range of abilities and learning needs. This experience allows me to adapt lessons effectively for both confident learners and those who feel anxious or uncertain about Maths.
My sessions are reserved for families and students who value clear explanations, structured learning, and long-term confidence building. I specialise in helping students develop secure mathematical foundations and the discipline needed to perform confidently under exam conditions.
Prior Tutee Reviews:
"Shan is an incredible tutor and extremely committed to ensuring that I fully understand topics I initially found tricky and overwhelming. By breaking concepts down into manageable sections, he has helped me build confidence in Maths and Economics. I really appreciate the way he makes lessons enjoyable and approachable, especially as these subjects felt daunting and complicated at first. Shan is very supportive and tailors each lesson to my individual needs, which has made a huge difference to both my understanding and confidence. Highly recommend."

My Mathematics lessons are highly structured, calm, and exam-focused, with each session carefully planned around the student’s syllabus, exam board, and current level of understanding. Lessons typically begin with identifying gaps or misconceptions, followed by step-by-step explanations, guided practice, and independent problem-solving using exam-standard questions.
I place strong emphasis on method, accuracy, and logical reasoning, ensuring students understand not only how to reach the correct answer but how to present their working clearly to maximise marks. This approach is particularly effective for students who struggle with confidence, pace, or exam pressure.
Lessons are fully tailored and progressive, helping students build fluency, improve problem-solving skills, and gain the confidence to tackle unfamiliar questions independently. Over time, students develop stronger mathematical understanding, improved exam technique, and a more positive relationship with Maths.

Perfect! I had the pleasure to be tutored by Shan. He makes even the most difficult and boring maths topics interesting and easy to understand. He has a lot of knowledge and he is always well prepared in the lesson. He also has a wealth of high-quality study materials that he generously shared with me. Shan always replied promptly to all my messages and questions. I felt at ease during the session and i could ask questions without feeling embarrassed. I would recommend Shan to anyone looking for a friendly and knowledgeable maths tutor.
Perfect! Thank you Shan, I have struggled with MA100 but you have been such a help in boosting my confidence.

Shan is an outstanding Mathematics tutor, I needed help to cover some topics that were included within my 1st year Economics course. His crash course coverage on A-level mathematics was extremely helpful and efficient. I highly recommend his services.
To any parent looking for an 11+ / GCSE / IB / TMUA / A-level Mathematics teacher, Shan is a great pick. With both official exam marking & teaching experience, he understands all sides of the examinations. I highly recommend his services.
Shan is a one-stop shop for all things Mathematics from 11+ right through to A-level support, his years of official teaching experience combined with his experience as an examination marker provides him with a 360 perspective on examinations for learners. I highly recommend his lessons to any student seeking to gain a top grade in Mathematics.
Having both completed and tutored A-level Mathematics, I understand first-hand the significant leap from GCSE in terms of both difficulty and content. Shan’s deep understanding of the syllabus, along with the ability to tailor teaching to each student, is truly exceptional. I highly recommend him as a mathematics tutor.
I wholeheartedly recommend Shan's Mathematics & Statistics tutorials. He has a deep understanding of GCSE & A-level courses through his time as a teacher & his years of experience as a private tutor.
Shan is an amazing teacher, his tutorials on Mathematics & Physics are very effective at improving exam performance. A combination of interactive sessions and his extensive knowledge of the curriculum and exam marking process makes him such an impactful tutor. I highly recommend his services.
I have had the pleasure of getting to know Shan on both a professional and personal basis. He is a kind, caring, and funny individual. He's long demonstrated his passion for education, completing multiple qualifications within the UK teaching system and tutoring many students during his time. I cannot speak highly enough about Shan as an individual and teacher.
I've had the pleasure of being taught personally by Shan in my A-level Mathematics resit for the past few months. I cannot speak highly enough of his teaching style, knowledge on the course, and ability to present complex topics in an engaging way.
I look forward to each and every one of our weekly sessions and strongly recommend him to any family looking for that one-stop-shop for all Mathematics based tutoring.See more recommendations
