Math Tutor – Primary, Middle School & IGCSE / Secondary

From 50 C$ /h

I hold a degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Wisconsin - Madison, USA, and relocated from London to Barcelona in 2023.

Mathematics has always been a huge passion of mine and I have found it helps in developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills. These skills are crucial in building confidence and nurturing creativity in students (I even use math to create music!).

I enjoy teaching various math topics, such as algebra, geometry, ratio and proportion, probability, and trigonometry, among others. I'm also equipped to assist students in preparing for 11+, 13+, GCSE, IB and SAT exams.

In addition to being a math tutor, I also have a certificate in TEFL. This has enabled me to design my lessons in a way that is more engaging and effective for students of all ages.

Having lived in five different countries, including the UK, Belgium, USA, India, and Spain, I bring a diverse perspective to my teaching. During my leisure time, I enjoy creating music, cooking, watching movies and running (mostly long walks these days!).

Please message me through Apprentus with any questions you may have. I'm eagerly looking forward to hearing from you!

IB Math (SL/HL), A-Levels & SAT Prep - International Curricula

60 C$ /h

Hi! If your child is tracking the IB Diploma, UK A-Levels, or preparing for the US SAT exam this term, you know how demanding these math curricula can be.

I am a native English speaker who relocated from London to Barcelona in 2023. Over the last 4 years across both major cities, I have specialized in helping international school students build genuine confidence, master complex concepts, and overcome math anxiety.

I hold a degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Wisconsin - Madison (USA), giving me a strong analytical foundation in mathematics. Additionally, I hold a TEFL certificate, which means I know exactly how to guide students who are navigating complex math topics in English as a native or second language.

What my lessons focus on:
• Building deep, fundamental understanding instead of just memorizing steps.
• Targeted preparation for upcoming school assessments and major exams.
• Transforming math anxiety into a confident, problem-solving mindset.
• Developing clear, organized study habits tailored to international curricula.

Lessons are offered either in-person in Barcelona or online via Zoom using interactive whiteboards, making it seamless to fit into busy family schedules. Please check out the verified reviews on my main profile to see the results other Barcelona families have experienced!

Feel free to send me a message here to discuss your child's specific goals and to secure a regular weekly time slot for this term!

When I was a young child, I believed I was not a mathematical person.

It wasn't until I met an amazing teacher at age 15 that I discovered my mathematical genius and my life was changed forever.

I'm eternally grateful to that teacher.

My teacher knew that self-image and self-belief is the key to unlocking your child's mathematical abilities.

Everyone is good at maths, but we all have different styles of thinking.

Bad teachers teach every child the same way.

My job is to find your child's style of mathematics and allow him to discover that for himself.

When he discovers that, he will begin to enjoy the beauty and power of mathematics

...and then you will see as the grades begin to soar.

👉Click the blue "Contact Oliver" button above and let's discuss how we can unlock your child's mathematical talents! 😊

I have a degree in Physics with 6 years of experience in IES. My methodology is quite good given that last year, nobody failed and those who took the Selectividad, got the necessary grade for their studies.
In the case of students who wish to access FP, I have made a summary of all the entrance exams. It was one of the subjects I taught at an IES.
The time available for each student may vary slightly depending on where the student lives, because I don't mind traveling, but I have my work commitments. Even if I can't show up on Saturday to Sunday nights, I could do it online in the early hours of that night.

Maths is a subject which is often hated by many people as it is viewed as 'difficult' to understand. However, understanding Maths is not as hard as it may seem and can be an amazing achievement for many. Even now when I finally understand a mathematical concept I feel a huge sense of achievement!

I pride myself on being a very personable tutor, connecting with my students personality-wise. All my students have said they feel comfortable and calm around me, which is something I believe significantly helps them achieve their goals! They know that even if they get an answer wrong, with me, it's okay because we'll work on it together in the best, most efficient way possible. Aside from Maths, I love to travel, sing, dance, read self-improvement books and invest! I am passionate about teaching young people about investing, since I think it is an important concept to understand and not gate-keep.

All lessons are based on previous classes and what you personally feel you need to work on in that particular lesson. We'll also go through exam papers from the very beginning, so you know what's ahead. Everything is well prepared and well thought of to ensure you get the most out of each and every session.
