Pierre Damin Park

I’m Pierre, a British-Korean mathematics graduate from the University of Cambridge, now based in Berlin. I was educated in the UK system from the age of 8, including GCSEs and A-Levels, before studying Mathematics at Cambridge. My A-Levels were in Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Biology.

My route into education has been shaped by both academic and practical experience. I have privately tutored Korean primary-age students preparing to transition into an English-speaking international school environment, helping them build confidence, curiosity and comfort in a new language and culture. I have also spent several years running a guesthouse operation in London, which developed my communication, organisation and problem-solving skills through day-to-day work with guests, cleaners, contractors and service providers.

I am now focused on mathematics tutoring and education in Berlin. I am particularly interested in helping students who are capable but have lost confidence, or who need abstract ideas explained in a clearer and more intuitive way. Having been through British schooling myself, I understand both the academic expectations and the pressure that can come with GCSE, IGCSE, A-Level and international-school mathematics.

I also understand the demands of selective UK mathematics preparation, including STEP and entrance or scholarship-style exams, where students need clear reasoning as well as technical fluency.
