My Qualifications

B.Sc. University of Sussex. Full teacher Qualification granted in 1971

About me

I am highly skilled in discerning a student's potential ability within a very short time - even if they think they "can't do maths." I am also very skilled in starting at the right place with whichever topic area need addressing. I am very patient in explaining different techniques, and I have a wide variety of different ways of explaining even difficult techniques. My success in tutoring Maths comes from many times releasing students from a prison that dictates to them that they cannot, and never will be able to understand Maths. I am a good communicator, and very adept at bringing into being the full potential of all students. I have many success stories of students who "hate" maths by turning many into excellent Mathematicians.

I have not always been a Maths teacher. I was the founder-member of a fairly successful rock band in the 70s and 80s: we recorded 7 albums and had a top-ten hit in 1978. We travelled all over the world, and one thing I discovered was that people are all the same! It doesn't matter which language you speak, what colour skin you have, or what you do in your life... the most important thing is to be warm and friendly to the people that are around you - I guess it's called "LOVE."

Max was my maths teacher at college and did an absolutely incredible job! He’s super understanding if you can’t understand something and is great at working out ways to teach you in a way that would make sense to you! 100% go to him if you’re needing any help with maths! He’s an amazing teacher!

I had Max as my Maths teacher last year (2021-22) in College and he was excellent. I had been homeschooled my whole life so I had little experience with GCSEs and despised mathematicians, however Max changed that. In a single year his teaching managed to improve my maths enough to earn a grade 5 in Higher Maths (GCSE) on my first attempt. I enjoyed his classes and it made Maths a far less frustrating subject for me as a result. He is, in my opinion, a prime example of the best a teacher can be.

Max is my lecturer at college and has helped me alot when it comes to basic math skills. I wouldn't say I'm smart but understanding more complex math and in short physics comes easy to me than simple math. He has been able to help me from not overcomplicating simple math and in the past year I have come along way. If you are wanting to go forwards in your mathematical abilities I would highly recommend max as your tutor.

Max is my maths teacher at college, he is a highly skilled teacher. He is always happy to go through topics and explain them from the top. He is also very patient. And he will check on me and other students in the class to make sure that we are happy and that we understand what we are learning.
