“I just wanted to report back that Manfred olbrich really is an exceptionally good maths tutor. My daughter has made unexpected and unusual progress since Manfred started teaching her, as noted by her teachers at Francis Holland.”
I have gained extensive experience in face-to-face and online tuition in Greater London since 2014. I specialise in tutoring GCSE/IGCSE, A-Level, and IB Maths and Physics.
As a tutor, I foster a comfortable and safe environment where students can excel, learn from mistakes, and achieve their best. My patient, versatile, and firm approach helps students unlock their true potential, build confidence, and reach their academic goals.
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Simón Bolívar University in Venezuela. During my engineering studies, I discovered my passion for teaching while working as a tutor at an academic centre, preparing students for university entrance exams. Subsequently, I worked as a Mechanical Design Engineer for a renowned tunnel construction machinery manufacturer in Germany until 2013.
I have accumulated over 4000 hours of private tuition experience in various subjects, successfully preparing students for GCSE/IGCSE, A-Level, and IB exams. Additionally, I have taken charge of home education and provided tutoring for a prestigious family abroad.
With a diverse range of experiences and strong communication skills, I have developed an outstanding and professional tutoring service that helps students excel in their academic endeavours.
Hello, I'm Manfred, born in Caracas, Venezuela, to a Venezuelan mother and a German father.
During my engineering studies, I had an eye-opening experience working as a tutor at an academic centre that prepared students for university entrance exams. At this centre, I discovered the transformative power that tutoring can have on students. I witnessed my students becoming more confident, addressing knowledge gaps, finding happiness, and ultimately becoming better versions of themselves. I also realized I possessed a natural talent for explaining complex concepts and facilitating effective learning.
After completing my engineering degree, I embarked on a successful career as a Mechanical Design Engineer for a world-renowned tunnel construction machinery manufacturer in Germany, gaining valuable expertise in the field.
Music has been an integral part of my life, and I have been playing the guitar since childhood. Following a year-long sabbatical, I made a pivotal decision to move to London to pursue my passion for music. Graduating with a First-Class Honors Bachelor's Degree in Popular Music Performance from the University of West London marked a significant milestone in my musical journey.
Throughout my studies in London, I have actively served as a private tutor in various subjects, accumulating over 3000 hours of invaluable teaching experience. Guiding and preparing students for their GCSE/IGCSE, A-Level, and IB exams has been truly rewarding. Additionally, I have taken on the responsibility of home education for some of my students and have imparted guitar and music theory lessons, witnessing their skills flourish and their passion for music soar.
My diverse range of experiences, from Engineering to tutoring in Maths and Music, coupled with my background in performing, have shaped my exceptional ability to communicate and connect with students. This has been instrumental in the successful development of my outstanding and professional tutoring service.
I take immense pride in empowering my students to achieve their full potential academically. My tutoring journey is driven by the belief that education is a transformative force, and I am dedicated to making a positive impact on each student's life.
“Thank you so much for your patience and your approach to teaching, my daughter is finally gaining some confidence and she is now able to understand topics she was never able to understand before”
“Manfred really is an exceptionally good maths tutor. My daughter has made unexpected and unusual progress since Manfred started teaching her, as noted by her teachers at school. She’s now moved up 3 grade predictions and she actually enjoys maths. He makes a great effort to ensure that my daughter understands the concepts, patiently varying his explanations until she understands. (Mother of GCSE Maths student)”
“Thank you to Manfred who has helped my son with common entrance Maths for the last 10 months. He has learned to tackle many tricky concepts such as algebra with increased confidence under Manfred’s expert guidance and this has given him an extremely beneficial edge for these exams. We would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.”
I strive to strike a balance between kindness and firmness, fostering confidence and resilience in my students. Consistent revision and lesson adaptation guarantee a thorough understanding of the subject matter. Regular communication and accountability play a critical role in maximising student success. With a professional yet friendly demeanour and strong motivation, I encourage my students to reach their full academic potential while developing a bond based on trust and the joint goal of improvement. Together, we embark on a journey of growth and achievement in their educational pursuits.
I play the guitar.
I love playing sport (football, tennis, volleyball) and fitness in general. I also love diving (I was a dive master for 4 months in Indonesia!), hiking, climbing mountains, snowboarding, or simply being in nature!
