Having attained A*s in Mathematics, Further Mathematics and Physics A Levels, Tabitha studied Mathematics for 4 years on an integrated master’s programme at the University of Oxford. There she attained a double first, finishing in the top ten in her cohort, and will soon be starting a PhD in Cyber Security. Tabitha has tutored GCSE and GCSE retakes, gifted and talented students, for the SATs in America, AS and A Level maths (including both pure and applied), STEP and MAT papers, Oxbridge maths and PPE admissions including mock interviews.

Tom teaches maths undergraduates at the University of Oxford, specialising in Applied Maths. Alongside his teaching commitments, he works closely with the university access and outreach team and regularly gives talks in schools and universities across the UK. Tom’s award-winning outreach programme ‘Tom Rocks Maths’ website hosts videos, podcasts, puzzles and articles that aim to make maths entertaining and understandable to all. Some of his partners include BBC, the European Mathematical Society, Cambridge University Press, Oxplore – Oxford University’s Digital Outreach Portal, the Naked Scientists and New Scientist.

Simon is a maths educator with a PhD in Differential Geometry from the University of Leeds. He spent many years in the IT industry working on the development of geometric software. So, with the encouragement of friends and family he changed careers to go into maths teaching. Simon is interested in both the history and the future of maths. His courses take you from the work of great Leonhard Euler (1707-1783) and touch upon the use of computer algebra systems like Maxima.

Having spent many years working on mathematical research, Tom is now focusing on developing his teaching skills. His PhD was awarded in May 2020 and he is using this milestone as an opportunity to focus on non-research projects after 4 years of hard work. His aim is to grow his tutoring to enable him to offer free lessons to disadvantaged students. Dr Baker’s PhD was on an area of pseudo differential operators, which is applied to partial differential operator problems.

As well as a tutor, James is an alumnus of Oxford Summer Courses. His specialisations range from Logic and Model Theory to Non-linear Dynamics and Fluids and Algebraic Geometry. He has been involved in various projects working on formalising mathematical theorems. His first paper is due to be published early 2022. When not studying, James travels the country getting people excited about maths. Recently, this has involved speaking at Oxbridge colleges, appearing on BBC radio and speaking at Imperial College. His aim is to become an academic, who travels the world talking about abstract and complicated Mathematics.
