Henry Nurick - Private Tutor in Central London and Brighton
I am a Mathematics graduate from Cambridge University, where I specialised in Group theory, Galois theory and Graph theory. Since graduating I have been a Data Analyst and Software Engineer for a startup called MoveGB. I was soon promoted in the company and became a product manager. My next role was in the Marine Insurance industry, however I found teaching Mathematics was much more engaging and interesting for me, so I soon decided to pursue private tuition and have been tutoring ever since.

My Tutoring & Teaching Experience
I have tutored for the past 6 years, both privately and in association with BHASVIC Sixth Form College. I specialise in teaching Mathematics from A-Level to STEP I, II and III level, and in tutoring students for applications to and interviews for Oxbridge and other top UK Universities.
My Approach to Tutoring
My teaching mantra is: enjoyment equals understanding. Mathematics is interesting, and I think it is the fault of the standard curriculum to take the heart and soul out of Mathematics and replace it with wrote learning scattered parts of Maths without context. I try to turn pieces of disjointed information into a web of Mathematics that highlights the connectedness of the theories studied for exams. I have found that this approach is not only more engaging and enjoyable for the student, but also depends their understanding of the syllabus and prepares my students for any unexpected applications of standard theories that may come up in exams or interviews.
Fun Facts About Me
Outside of Mathematics and tutoring I enjoy reading (my favourite book being One Hundred Years of Solitude By Gabriel Garcia Marquez), learning languages, travelling and doing sports including Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Surfing, Skiing, Climbing, Gymnastics and Swimming.
