Oxford Maths Student offering BMO, TMUA, Oxbridge Admissions and A-Level Maths tuition

Janick is an outstanding mathematician and gifted educator. While still at school he set up a group for students preparing for the British Maths Olympiad, both teaching new material and sourcing problems for tutorials. He also continues to support students with university admissions and has a comprehensive experience of STEP, TMUA and MAT. Janick is an inspiring tutor, able to balance an expectation of rigour with a highly supportive approach.

I first met Janick when he volunteered to tutor my fellow pupils and I towards our Hamilton and Maclaurin Olympiads. This was an invaluable opportunity for me; working with Janick helped to greatly enhance my ability in a variety of mathematical skills, spanning from proof by induction to number theory. Ultimately, this was integral for me to attempt the Olympiad with far more confidence within myself, but I also now feel I have developed a greater mathematical fluency thanks to Janick. I would absolutely recommend Janick as a tutor, since I believe his patience and ability to explain mathematical concepts with clarity in a clear and concise manner was truly beneficial for me.

I got to know Janick during the school sessions that he ran which focused on Olympiad maths. Janick’s clear explanations of complex areas of Olympiad mathematics allowed me to greatly improve understanding of previously confusing concepts and have given me much more confidence approaching this style of problem. Sessions with Janick usually consisted of a thorough, well thought out introduction to a new concept followed by a knowledgeably selected, progressive and stimulating set of problems on this concept which were completed with his guidance. He is very skilled at demonstrating how to link complex problems with more simple ones, massively increasing confidence when approaching challenging Olympiad questions. For these reasons I highly recommend Janick as a maths tutor.

I met Janick at one of the maths sessions he ran at school on olympiad maths. Despite initially having minimal understanding of the ideas and process behind solving those sorts of problems, Janick’s help greatly changed that. His gradual introduction to the methods required to solve problems as well as clear explanations about how they worked made his knowledgeability on the subject clear and allowed me to quickly improve, despite the unfamiliar and challenging situation I was in. His way of teaching focused on introducing a new idea with some simpler problems before moving onto more challenging ones and I believe that this way of learning not only helped me to understand the ideas quickly, but also bridged the gap that I had with harder problems allowing me to tackle them with much greater success. For these reasons, I highly recommend Janick as a tutor for maths.
