MIRIAM WAVINYA Education with a focus on Mathematics and Business
No reviews yet

As a passionate educator with over 9 years of teaching experience, I specialize in offering personalized online tutoring in Mathematics and Business Studies to students following international curricula such as IGCSE, Cambridge, and Edexcel. My approach is student-centered, focusing on building confidence, mastering core concepts, and improving academic performance.

I have taught in both classroom and virtual environments, giving me a deep understanding of the challenges learners face—especially when preparing for competitive exams. Each lesson is designed to suit the learner’s pace, goals, and academic level. I integrate past papers, real-world examples, and interactive tools to make sessions engaging and effective.

Beyond teaching, I also coordinate a team of tutors and work closely with parents to ensure consistent academic growth. My background in education leadership and business administration has equipped me with strong skills in communication, planning, and results-driven instruction.

Whether you’re looking for regular academic support, revision for exams, or confidence-building in problem-solving, I am committed to helping you succeed.
