Hey - I'm Gypsy! I am a graduate of the Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and Statistics with a specialisation in Pure Mathematics. After that, I also did a Graduate Diploma of Arts with a major in Philosophy. Currently, I am studying a Master’s of Science in Pure Mathematics. I have been tutoring students for the past six years with Janet Clarke Hall, St. Hilda’s College (colleges at the University of Melbourne), Skyline Education Foundation and ATARNotes, and have experience teaching one-on-one, group classes and giving lectures (to over 1000 unique students). I love working with all types of students which is why I haven't only taught VCE, but all types of students from primary school all the way to second-year university studies. Also, I absolutely love maths (not something you hear everyday!). In fact, if you want to see some of my passion have a look at my recently published paper: 'From Boxes to Polynomials: A Story of Generalization' which you'll find with a google! I have been awarded scholarships from the University of Melbourne, Janet Clarke Hall, and The Smith Family and have travelled around the world to the North America and Europe to participate in mathematics conferences. If you're looking for someone to only drill equations and problems into students, set 100 homework problems and perpetuate the already too prevalent 'mathematical anxiety', I am not your tutor! It's important to me that students learn to enjoy maths (or at least respect it!). My style of teaching is comprehensive and gets results, yet is not your ordinary heartless maths class. I take a holistic approach to teaching students that incorporates not only the raw mathematical content, but the philosophy and history of why it works and why it's important. Tutoring is all one-on-one. I can teach all students (from primary school, to VCE Methods/Specialist and finally to university courses). My rate is $85/hour. Give me a message and I would be more than happy to have a chat about you/your child. See you soon!

Gypsy had been a fantastic tutor this year, making a previously-hated subject extremely enjoyable. He managed to show me the beauty of maths and search for creative solutions. Gypsy offered great support and motivated me to try my best this year, I greatly appreciated his help!

Really recommend Gypsy! He was really helpful in my preparation for the linear algebra exam, helped me fix a lot of the details and gave me a lot of tips in what to do in the exam. Couldn’t possibly get 100 without him!! :)

Gypsy is a fantastic tutor. He is patient and approaches each of my questions with a can do attitude, he is very interactive and allows me the time to fully understand each concept/equation. I highly recommend Gypsy!

Gypsy has tutored me and my sister for more than two years. We both think he’s a great tutor. He’s helped us explore exciting, fun and challenging ideas in maths. We’re both loving maths. Thank you Gypsy!

Gypsy has been extremely helpful and supportive this summer. He was able to break complex theory down and provide provide insightful explanations. He ensured that I had a solid understanding before moving on after each section. Most importantly, he was very approachable and friendly!!

Gypsy has been a massive help over the summer term this year, he is well prepared for each lesson and gives insightful tips and ways of approaching different questions. He is very easy to communicate with and would definitely recommend him to anyone taking Linear Algebra.

Gypsy really helped me understand Linear Algebra over the Summer. For something that originally seemed quite daunting and abstract, he really broke it down and explained it thoroughly. The sessions were all really enjoyable, great communicator and super nice guy. Highly recommend!!

Gypsy helped me a lot to get a headstart on my summer intensive, since he is well aware of the content and prepares heaps of info to help me during our sessions. He also makes it very easy to ask questions, so if anyone needs help definitely talk to him

Gypsy helped so much!!! i gave him so many questions for us to solve together (about 20, and they were long) and he prepared the answers in just one hour. the whole thing took less than 24 hrs and he gave really useful advice and his explanation was so simple i didn't feel overwhelmed during the session. more importantly he was really nice and non-judgmental which i really appreciate :) definitely hit him up if you need help!!!
