About
About Salman, online Mathematics teacher
I bring structure and confidence to the subjects students find most intimidating. Whether it is A Level Mathematics or the SAT, I teach for understanding rather than shortcuts and memorisation, so what you learn lasts beyond the exam.

About me
My story
I make complex ideas feel simple. I break them into logical steps you can follow, connect concepts across topics, and make sure you understand why something works, not just how.
My classes are focused and methodical, built for steady progress. Students who arrive convinced that Mathematics is not for them tend to leave able to explain it to someone else.
I am a LUMS graduate with an MBA from the International University of Applied Sciences in Berlin, and I bring both to every lesson.

My approach
How I teach
Four things I do in every class, whether it is an O Level group or a one-to-one A2 session.
Logical steps, not shortcuts
I break ideas into steps you can follow and reproduce on your own, rather than procedures you memorise and hope to recognise in the exam.
The why before the how
You learn why a method works, which is what lets you use it on a question you have never seen before.
Topics that connect
I teach Mathematics as one subject rather than a list of topics, so the work you put into P1 keeps paying off in P3 and S2.
Steady progress
Focused, methodical classes that build your confidence in the topics students usually find hardest.

Background
My background
I have a LUMS degree and an MBA from the International University of Applied Sciences in Berlin. That mix is why my answer to “where would I ever use this?” rarely stops at the mark scheme.
Outside the classroom I am just as committed to learning and consistency, whether on the padel court or at the gym. I try to improve one step at a time, which is what I ask of my students too.
