Jan F. — Maths tutor

About me

Mathematics has been a lifelong passion of mine, a field to which I have dedicated over 25 years of exploration and contribution. This journey has shaped me into a skilled mathematician, culminating in a degree in Mathematics from Monash University and the University of South Australia, where I specialized in Mathematical and Computer Modeling. My engagement with mathematics took a significant turn during my sophomore year when I successfully solved a mathematical puzzle that had baffled scholars for 165 years. This achievement served as a catalyst for further research opportunities and collaborations. My time at the University of South Australia was particularly impactful. I had the opportunity to work as an Applied Mathematics Researcher, immersing myself in rigorous research while mentoring a diverse group of six PhD students. In this role, I guided them through the complexities of their research projects and helped them develop their academic and analytical skills. Throughout my career, I have made substantial contributions to the field, publishing two mathematical books and several influential research papers. As a mathematics tutor, I have empowered students to overcome challenges, including those from Non-English Speaking Backgrounds (NESB), assisting them in enhancing their academic skills. In 2022, I returned to Poland after a transformative 35 years in Australia, and I now teach mathematics at Mathema as well as English at a language school. I am committed to inspiring my students through engaging, interactive lessons while providing private tutoring to support their individual learning journeys. My diverse career seamlessly integrates my passions for mathematics and language education, enabling me to empower students from various backgrounds to achieve their academic aspirations.
