About Luca
I graduated from Durham University as a Master of Mathematics, my thesis specialised in cryptography and coding theory which in short is a special application of number theory. I first started tutoring when I was 14, I was fortunate to be able to sit my maths IGCSE early in year 9, and for the two years following provided extra help to some of my struggling peers. I found that I quite liked teaching and had a bit of a talent for it so took a job with Mathnasium when I was in year 12, supporting kids aged 5-16 with their maths. I stayed with Mathnasium for around 5 years and learnt a lot of different teaching methods, what works, what doesn't and how to approach topics from new angles for students that think differently or struggle with conventional teaching methods. In the final year of my Masters I also received training from the institution and tutored a group of calculus 1 undergraduate maths students, further expanding my repertoire. During the COVID lockdown I developed a good system for teaching online without losing any of the personality that comes with face to face lessons, a lot of students like the flexibility and comfort of being able to learn in their room, and this also works nicely for me so it is a win-win! Having now graduated and studied in lots of different environments myself, I have a good understanding of how to best prepare for assessments and how to stay motivated in times of stress and self-doubt which is often a big obstacle for students struggling with maths.

I have been tutoring maths for over 7 years now both independently and through institutions. My initial approach with maths is usually to assess where the student is struggling, identifying the gaps in their existing knowledge. From here we can work on filling in these gaps and tying everything together. It's important for students to have a thorough understanding of the fundamentals and from there it is easy to develop an intuition for how the different concepts work together. This is especially important for GCSE and A-level students where the harder exam questions require use of lots of topics at once and this is where students can score lots of marks to get top grades.

I highly recommend Luca as a maths tutor He's got this amazing talent for breaking down tricky concepts so they finally click. I went from dreading math to actually enjoying it. Luca's super patient, adapts to how you learn best, and he's always on time.If you're struggling with math or just want to get ahead.
Luca and I go way back. He was my tutor and good friend. I was fortunate to meet him during university where our budding friendship flourished. We shared a couple modules. Whenever I struggled with maths he would help me out at a moment's notice.
I admired his calming demeanour and philosophy. I would always hear him in his room teaching away, even during the exam period! What separates Luca from the rest is his ability to kindle a flame, not merely fill an empty barrel. He is passionate about maths and he instills this appetite in his students --something I believe is vital to any form of endeavour. I hated maths (I was a Classics student) but he had a way to link the two subjects making the tutoring far more enjoyable than I thought possible.
Luca has beaten all of my expectations as a tutor! His extensive knowledge on Maths and his adaptive style of teaching has made me learn to love Maths! I was always worried that Maths was too confusing and complex for me, but Luca showed me how to think and understand mathematically in a completely unique way! Really appreciate his hard work!
Luca is an outstanding tutor who is reliable, organised and very engaging. Luca was always very patient with my daughter and was able to suggest techniques which she found far easier to understand and remember.
I would highly recommend Luca.
He tutored me for my GCSE’s and helped me improve from a 4 to a 7 thank you so much Luca!
Luca tutored all three of my sons for GCSE maths, and took each of them from not sure if they would pass to getting 6’s or higher! He managed to get them excited for lessons which was a first and really helped motivate them both in maths and other aspects of their lives. I can’t recommend him enough.
Luca tutored me through university whilst I was a computer science student struggling with the maths side of my degree. As an international student I struggled with a lot of the available help as my English wasn’t perfect.
Luca was an excellent tutor, he is charming and was always very patient with me and helped me to develop a strong understanding of linear algebra and calculus, I was able to achieve top marks in these modules thanks to his help! I really recommend himI studied with Luca during my time at university where we completed a Masters in Mathematics. I can attest to his unbreakable work ethic, commitment to excellence and approachability. Above all else, Luca is a fantastic teacher. He was a pillar of support for me during my studies and was excellent at explaining concepts that he had understood at great depth. On top of this, he was heavily involved in helping students in younger years who sought him for his friendly nature and expertise. If you are looking for a tutor at the top of their game, I could not recommend Luca enough.
