Rowland

I grew up in Ireland, where I gained seven A* grades in my school finals. I studied maths at Trinity College, Dublin, graduating with a first class honours and university medal, before going on to complete an MPhil in music composition, my second passion. I began studying piano at the age of six, and also hold diplomas in performance and piano teaching from the Royal Irish Academy of Music.

I taught maths part time during uni and, following graduation, worked in digital marketing for a time, but was soon drawn back to the world of education! I subsequently obtained a PGCert in higher education from the London School of Economics, and am a fellow of Advance HE (formerly the Higher Education Academy).

I believe that anyone can do maths with the right support and a positive attitude! My approach is to help my students find ways that they can enjoy studying this beautiful subject, and I specialise in encouraging and motivating my clients to achieve their unique potential.

When not tutoring, I spend most of my time writing and producing music. My current passion is pop music and I collaborate with a number of other artists and writers from all over London. I also wrote musical theatre for a number of years in the past, and have produced my shows at a number of theatres in both Dublin and London.

My other hobbies include rock climbing, learning languages (I am currently tackling Hungarian) and exploring all the cultural pursuits London has to offer!
