Maths and Science is Your Super Power

Maths & Science Are Your Secret Superpowers

by Joseph Onyango – Maths & Science Tutor, KenyanTutors.com

Many students arrive in my lessons saying things like:

• “Sir, I am not a maths person.”


• “Science is too hard for me.”

I do not agree.

You do not need a “special brain” to be good at maths or science. You need clear explanations,
real examples and steady practice. Over time, these subjects can become some of your strongest skills.

1. Maths Is the Language of Smart Decisions

You already use maths every day, even if you do not notice it:

• Comparing prices in the supermarket


• Planning how long your data bundle will last


• Working out how many hours you need to revise before an exam

In our lessons, we connect topics like percentages, ratios, algebra and graphs to real-life situations.
Once you see how a formula can save you money or time, it stops feeling like random symbols and starts
feeling useful.

2. Science Helps You Understand the World Around You

Science is not only about lab coats and long formulas. It is a way of asking good questions and testing ideas.
Together we explore questions such as:

• Why does Nairobi often feel cooler than Mombasa?


• Why does a phone battery drain faster when the weather is hot?


• How can vaccines protect not just one person, but a whole community?

I use examples from everyday Kenyan life – matatus, mobile money, weather, sports and cooking – so that biology,
chemistry and physics become clear stories you can remember, not just facts to memorise.

3. How I Teach: Calm, Clear and Practice-Focused

My goal is to make you feel safe, supported and challenged in the right way. In my lessons, you can expect:

• Break it down – We start from what you already know and build up gradually.


• Ask anything – There are no silly questions. If something is unclear, we pause and fix it together.


• Practice smart – You get focused exam-style questions and short daily tasks, not endless pages of homework.

During each lesson, I pay attention to your “aha” moments – the point where an idea finally clicks.
Those moments build real confidence for school exams, KCSE and any future studies.

4. Ready to Strengthen Your Maths and Science?

Whether you are:

• a student preparing for exams,


• a parent looking for support for your child, or


• an adult refreshing your skills for work or further study,

I am here to guide you with patience, clear explanations and lots of practical practice.

Book a session with me, and let us turn maths and science from “difficult subjects” into your everyday superpowers.
