Algebra 1 and Algebra 2 tutor

About Gwyn

I'm a former software engineer and former tech executive (VP of Product Development, Technical Director, CEO). I was a co-founder of several successful startups with millions of users around the world, hundreds of employees -- and one billion dollar IPO. Consequently, I've had the great good fortune to be able to travel and live all around the world (50+ countries and counting) as a "digital nomad", doing ONLINE-ONLY TUTORING for more than 15 years.

I'm a member of Mensa (the high IQ society) and I have Master's degrees in Computer Science (with near-perfect 3.91 GPA), and Business Administration (MBA). I started (but didn't finish) my PhD in Management Research at the Said Business School, University of Oxford (which I elected to do instead of taking up my place at MIT). I scored top 1% in GMAT and GRE tests when making my graduate applications.

I have a high school teaching qualification, the PGCE (Post Graduate Certificate in Education) with a specialization in Mathematics. I also have a teaching certificate in Computer Science for the IB (International Baccalaureate) Diploma program.

I'm happy that I've found a successful second career after tech. I genuinely enjoy teaching, and I get a kick out of helping my students improve their grades, up their scores on college admissions tests, and get accepted into their dream schools.

I can help with various flavors of Mathematics, IT, Computer Science, Business Studies, Management, Economics, Entrepreneurship. I can advise on business and computer science projects and startup concepts / business plans. I can assist with getting the best possible scores on standardized tests, and preparing kick-ass university applications & essays. I also teach English (English as a Second Language, Business English, English for Academic Purposes) for non-native speakers.

Please note: I am background-checked (by GoodHire) in the US, with a clear criminal record and excellent credit rating. And I have a current DBS (UK government's Disclosure and Barring Service) as required to work in UK high schools. My above-mentioned degrees/certificates were acquired mostly in Europe, and hence don't show on my profile, as only US schools are listed here.
