About Luca

I graduated from Durham University as a Master of Mathematics, my thesis specialised in cryptography and coding theory which in short is a special application of number theory. I first started tutoring when I was 14, I was fortunate to be able to sit my maths IGCSE early in year 9, and for the two years following provided extra help to some of my struggling peers. I found that I quite liked teaching and had a bit of a talent for it so took a job with Mathnasium when I was in year 12, supporting kids aged 5-16 with their maths. I stayed with Mathnasium for around 5 years and learnt a lot of different teaching methods, what works, what doesn't and how to approach topics from new angles for students that think differently or struggle with conventional teaching methods. In the final year of my Masters I also received training from the institution and tutored a group of calculus 1 undergraduate maths students, further expanding my repertoire. During the COVID lockdown I developed a good system for teaching online without losing any of the personality that comes with face to face lessons, a lot of students like the flexibility and comfort of being able to learn in their room, and this also works nicely for me so it is a win-win! Having now graduated and studied in lots of different environments myself, I have a good understanding of how to best prepare for assessments and how to stay motivated in times of stress and self-doubt which is often a big obstacle for students struggling with maths.

I have been tutoring maths for over 7 years now both independently and through institutions. My initial approach with maths is usually to assess where the student is struggling, identifying the gaps in their existing knowledge. From here we can work on filling in these gaps and tying everything together. It's important for students to have a thorough understanding of the fundamentals and from there it is easy to develop an intuition for how the different concepts work together. This is especially important for GCSE and A-level students where the harder exam questions require use of lots of topics at once and this is where students can score lots of marks to get top grades.
