📈 Calculus Explained Simply by an Applied Mathematician

🛑 Stop looking for homework answers online. The internet is awash with desperate students looking for a quick fix to their Calculus woes. Google won't help you when those exams come around.

i️ I'm not here to put a bandage on you. I do not do homework as I have done my fair share of Calculus, enough for this lifetime and the next! I will teach you how to read, understand, and solve Calculus problems effectively. We will master the fundamentals and learn how they may be applied. We will review variations of questions that may be asked of you, and we will also evaluate the importance and implications of the solutions.

💡 See how Calculus is done from a Mathematician. I have been there, done that. Made mistakes. Went about learning Calculus the long, hard, windy way. For the last decade, I have determined where students tend to get snagged and developed explanations that are appropriate to the level of the learner. I am interested in seeing you stand on your own, and I want you to develop your confidence in solving problems in Calculus and beyond.

Every child is a math genius | British tutor
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! 😊
