Hi! My name is Oliver, but everyone calls me Ollie, and I have been studying Politics at the University of Warwick since September 2023. I did A-Levels in my home city of Liverpool. I love my subject and I love teaching children as I have done before working at Kumon. I play instruments with my favourite being the drum kit, and I love playing board games with people! I also sometimes go skiing with my family. I completed my A-levels in Mathematics, Psychology, and Politics at the Liverpool Blue Coat Grammar School in 2023 and am currently studying Politics and International Studies at the University of Warwick. I am experienced in teaching both English and Mathematics from ages 4-16 at various levels, as I have done so for Kumon for a number of years before and during lockdown.

Hi! I’m Teacher Kaia Avery, a passionate educator who believes that learning should always be fun, engaging, and meaningful. With two years of experience teaching both in the classroom and online, I have guided students of various ages and learning backgrounds across a diverse range of subjects, including Biology, Chemistry, English, Maths HL, Maths LL, Physics, and Science. I also help students prepare for major national and international exams such as the GCSE, A-Level exams, and standardized tests. I strive to create a supportive and confidence-building environment where students not only understand the lessons but also enjoy the process of discovering their strengths and growing academically. Let’s make learning an exciting and meaningful journey together! 🌟 In my lessons, I make sure that complex ideas are broken down into simple and clear explanations that students can easily understand. Whether it’s solving math problems or improving grammar and communication skills, I always connect lessons to real-life examples so learning feels relevant and practical. I also use a student-centered approach, allowing learners to take an active role in class through guided practice, discussions, and fun exercises. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics from Surigao del Norte State University, where I developed a strong foundation in analytical thinking, problem-solving, and logical reasoning. My undergraduate years allowed me to deepen my appreciation for mathematics—not only as a subject but as a tool that trains the mind to think critically and creatively. Currently, I am pursuing a Master of Science in Mathematics at Caraga State University to further enhance my expertise and stay updated with advanced mathematical concepts and modern teaching approaches. In addition to my academic background, I am TEFL-certified (Teaching English as a Foreign Language), which has equipped me with effective strategies for teaching English to non-native speakers and supporting learners of different linguistic and cultural backgrounds. My teaching experience spans a wide range of subjects, including Biology, Chemistry, English, Maths HL, Maths LL, Physics, and Science. This diverse subject expertise allows me to guide students holistically—building their communication skills, strengthening their analytical abilities, and helping them grow across multiple areas of learning in an engaging, supportive environment.

Hello. My name is Darren Beech and I have been a Science Teacher for 26 years. I have taught all three science specialisms at key stage 3 (Biology, Chemistry and Physics), Biology and Chemistry at GCSE and A level Biology. I have taught all ability ranges over these years and have had exemplary success with the students in my classes. Having left main school teacher in the summer of 2025 to care for a disabled parent, I have moved into tutoring to continue passing on my passion for science and to help continue to get students to progress through their qualifications. Even if my availability doesn't suit you, please message me and we may be able to come to an alternative time slot. Having completed my GCSE;s (1992) and A levels (1995), I moved to the University of Derby to complete a BSC (HONS) degree in Biology (1998) and then onto a PGCE (Secondary science) with DeMontfort University (1999). I have then taught in 4 schools over my career as a teacher of science, where I also had additional responsibilities such as Head of Biology and Deputy Head of the 6th form.

Hi! I'm Nayen. I was born and grew up in London (which is where I live now). Alongside tutoring, I am a quantitative investor.
