Maths Tutoring

The world around us is exponentially growing with technology. The foundation in which these technologies are built is from mathematics.

I am an Engineer wanting to guide young talented minds to a stronger future, through mathematics.

Some recent achievements of my students include:

1. Gabriella, in Year 13, who started tutorials from the beginning of this year covering all coursework from Year 10 to 13, is now looking forward to scoring excellence in her final examinations.

2. Harrison, in Year 9, who was scoring just over 50% in his mock exams has just scored 83% after 4 months of tutoring covering the fundamentals of mathematics.

These are just a few of my students’ achievements, which I am very proud of.

If you would like your child to excel in mathematics and accomplish excellent grades, please contact me on 0221341990 or message me here for further information.

Christmas Carols- A brief history

Kurien Thomas from The Flea 88.2 FM

Hello,
As we head into Christmas and the long holidays, the unmistakable carol music of Christmas will be heard. From shopping malls to radio stations to homes where tree decorating missions are underway not to mention seeds of an argument that reaches it zenith on Christmas Day!

But where did it all originate ( not the argument!), the carols?

Here at the Flea FM, each week we will post a few short snippets* we have curated so that you can appreciate when you hear a carol, a little history about the simple Christmas carol. Enjoy.
* attributes provided at last post.

In medieval times, the word ‘carol’ referred to a round dance with musical accompaniment (‘carole’ in French). It later developed into a song form of verses and a refrain. Not all the original texts had Christmassy words but many were associated with Mary, Advent and Christmas. The term has since come to be applied to all Christmas songs, whether or not in carol form.

Christmas Carols were introduced to formal church services by St. Francis of Assisi.
‘One of the oldest printed English Christmas carols is the Boar's Head Carol, sung as the traditional dish is carried in on Christmas Day at Queen's College, Oxford; it was printed in 1521.’ (Oxford Dictionary of Music)
