Hi, I’m Maki Mary, an enthusiastic and patient math teacher who enjoys helping students understand math in a simple and practical way. I believe math becomes easier when students understand the concept instead of simply memorizing formulas. My goal is to make learning math engaging, supportive, and less intimidating, while helping students build their problem-solving skills and confidence. In my free time, I enjoy playing the guitar and singing, which helps me relax and stay creative throughout the day. I graduated with a degree in Electronics Engineering and am a licensed Electronics Engineer. My academic background gave me a strong foundation in mathematics, logical reasoning, and problem-solving, while my professional experience in Quality Assurance and Control further strengthened these skills. I also completed my TEFL certification and achieved a C2 Proficient level in the EF SET English test, which strengthened my communication skills and prepared me to support learners effectively.

I am a passionate English tutor and I aim to help students build confidence, strengthen essay writing, and master literary analysis in a supportive and engaging environment. I have experience tutoring students of different abilities. I specialise in GCSE and A-Level English Literature and Language, helping students develop confidence in literary analysis, essay writing and exam success. I hold an MA in English Literature and an LLB (Qualifying Law Degree), both from Canterbury Christ Church University. I achieved A-Levels in English Literature, Health & Social Care, and Philosophy. At GCSE, I achieved Grade 9 in English Literature, Grade 8 in English Language, and completed a total of 11 GCSEs and equivalent qualifications. My academic background has given me a strong foundation in literary analysis, critical thinking, essay writing, and exam technique, which I bring to every tutoring session.
