Information about Nikesh
I am fully qualified teacher with a PhD in pure mathematics. I have taught in some of the most successful schools in the country, including Kings College London Maths School (KCLMS). As such, I am trained in the latest research based techniques in teaching as well as having expert level knowledge mathematics.
My teaching style is based on giving ownership of learning back to the learner by enabling them to discover mathematical concepts for themselves. In doing so, students attain a deeper understanding of the ideas in question and experience the enjoyment of having derived a complex idea for themselves. I achieve this by skilled use of Socratic question, an awareness of my students needs and tailor made resources. These resources include exercises, reading material, logical thinking problems and electronic aids such as animations, videos and graphics.
My personal style is relaxed and friendly while at the same time maintaining high expectations of my students so that they achieve their potential.

It`s been such a pleasure to have Nikesh help our Year Six son with his maths, as a general top-up, and to prepare for SATS. Nikesh is great. He`s friendly, very well prepared and our son has found it easy to connect with him - his confidence in maths has significantly improved. We wouldn`t have any hesitation in recommending Nikesh as a tutor.
