Our tutors are trained to teach each student individually, to develop the skills they need to thrive in mathematics, and to foster a love of learning.

Philip Steve Mathew

Assistant Centre Manager

I have been an instructor at Mathnasium in London for over a year prior to this exciting new role in Glasgow ! In my previous role I had worked closely with students of all abilities, including those with Special Educational Needs.

I love exploring how young minds perceive logic and problem-solving, especially in maths, where patterns emerge everywhere - from numbers to nature. Seeing students tackle complex problems with their own reasoning and confidently defend their logic is what makes teaching so rewarding for me.

Before moving into education, I spent three years as an Advanced Tax Analyst at Ernst & Young, applying analytical and numerical skills in a high-level corporate environment. I hold an M.Sc. in Economics from the University of Liverpool and a B.Sc. (triple major) in Economics, Mathematics, and Statistics from CHRIST university in Bangalore, India. 

I thrive on challenges, enjoy brain-melting maths problems, and aim to be the ultimate problem-solver (even trying to outsmart ChatGPT!). Outside of teaching, I’m an avid coffee drinker, a keen cyclist, and a lifelong learner. I also enjoy video games—because problem-solving isn’t just for the classroom!

They say change is the only constant and that is one of the main reasons as to why I embarked upon this challenging yet rewarding venture at Mathnasium of Glasgow South. Being the first centre in Scotland, I plan to leave behind a legacy of mathematical wizards who weave their own destiny !

Hawra Al-Khabouri

Maths Instructor

Hi, I’m Hawra, and I’m from Oman!

I’m in my final year at the University of Strathclyde, studying Mathematics with Teaching. I’ve always loved maths, and I enjoy helping students see that it doesn’t have to be scary or boring - maths can actually be fun! Whether it’s breaking down tricky problems, finding patterns, or just making numbers make sense, I love helping students have those “aha!” moments.

When I’m not geeking out over maths, you’ll probably find me with a coffee in hand, playing the piano, getting lost in a good book, or baking something sweet !

I have been helping young people with their maths for many years now and I am excited to be a part of the Mathnasium team to ‘’make maths make sense”!

When I’m not working I love sailing, and have travelled around Scotland and the UK with my university to compete.

Maths has always been my favourite subject in school and I want to change students view on maths, from potential panic to mastery!

Alice Himsworth

Maths Instructor

Hi my name is Alice and I am currently studying Architecture at the University of Strathclyde.

I have had a knack for Maths and the wonders of problem solving, since school. I love sharing my enthusiasm about the subject with younger mathematicians - to find their glow for the subject.

If I wasn't around maths, you would find me playing a range of instruments, crocheting or drawing a little detail of a building.
