About Shiven
High-achieving maths student who understands school pressures
Shiven is a high-performing student who has successfully completed his senior schooling with strong results, especially in maths. He has earned a DUX award and a Maths Olympiad trophy for best score, and has consistently achieved high results in national maths competitions. Having been accepted into a selective school, he knows first-hand how to tackle challenging content, assessments and exam-style questions. This tutor uses his recent school experience to explain concepts in a way that feels current, practical and easy for primary and high school students to relate to.
Proven leadership and mentoring mindset
From being class captain in primary school to captaining his cricket team, Shiven has developed real leadership and communication skills. He is used to guiding younger teammates, explaining strategies clearly and keeping others motivated, which translates directly into patient, step-by-step tutoring. This tutor is comfortable speaking in front of groups, listening to individual needs and adjusting his approach so each student feels heard, supported and confident to ask questions.
Engaging, disciplined and relatable role model
Outside the classroom, Shiven’s long-term involvement in competitive cricket and completion of a structured self-defence program show strong discipline, focus and time management. He brings this same organised mindset into tutoring sessions, helping students build routines for homework, revision and exam preparation. With interests in sport and cultural activities, he connects easily with young learners, using real-life examples and analogies to make maths more engaging. Parents can expect a reliable, friendly tutor who leads by example and encourages students to aim higher.
