About Me
I’ve always believed that anyone can be good at maths and science, they just need someone to explain it the right way
I’m Ben, an Engineering and Business student at The University of Auckland, with a passion for maths, science, and helping students build confidence in their learning.
Ever since I was young, I’ve been drawn to the way maths and science help us make sense of the world, from understanding patterns to figuring out why things work the way they do. What started as curiosity in the classroom grew into a real passion for teaching, where I love turning complex ideas into simple, meaningful lessons.
Over the past 5 years, I have tutored over 100 students individually and in group settings, helping them understand key topics and explaining concepts in an easy to understand way.
My goal as a tutor is to make learning clear, engaging, and relevant. I focus on understanding rather than memorisation, helping students see why things work, not just how.

"Before I started tutoring with Ben, I always thought I just wasn’t a maths or science person. But he helped me realise that I just needed the right explanations. He makes every lesson easy to follow and never makes you feel bad for not understanding something straight away. Now I actually enjoy learning."

"I can’t recommend Ben enough. He has a way of explaining maths that just makes sense. My son used to find algebra and calculus overwhelming, but with Ben’s help, he’s not only improved his grades but actually enjoys the subject now."

"I’ve been working with Ben for over a year, and he’s helped me heaps in advanced maths and science. He’s organised, supportive, and actually cares about helping you improve. I wouldn’t have done as well in my MCATs without his help."

"Ben was recommended to us by another parent, and I’m so glad we found him. He works closely with our son’s school teacher to make sure they’re on the same page and is always flexible with timing. Most importantly, my son genuinely looks forward to each lesson which says it all."

Explore what we offer
Maths has always been something I’ve enjoyed especially when I finally understand how things work. I know it can feel tricky at times, but with the right approach, it starts to make sense and even become fun.
In our lessons, we’ll go over everything from algebra and geometry to calculus, statistics, and problem-solving, depending on your level and goals. I like to break things down step by step, explaining the logic behind each concept so you can actually understand it, not just memorise it.
Science is all about curiosity: asking questions, testing ideas, and discovering how the world really works. My lessons are designed to help students not only understand the content but also appreciate the “why” behind it.
In our lessons, we’ll cover topics across Biology, Physics, Chemistry, and General Science, breaking things down in a way that’s simple, clear, and easy to understand. I like to connect what you’re learning to real examples so it actually makes sense to you.
These workshops are designed for students who want to feel fully prepared and confident heading into exams. We go over past papers, break down common questions, and revisit the key maths and science concepts you need to know.
Each session focuses on making sure you’ve covered everything from filling in any gaps, strengthening weak areas, and helping you understand not just the answers, but the reasoning behind them.
