About Yianni
I was born in Melbourne in 1989, and raised in Caulfield, Victoria. Growing up, I recall that Dad always took it upon himself to teach his kids about science and the natural world. One of my earliest memories involves my Year 2 teacher asking us each to share an interesting fact about water. My ‘fact’ was the chemical formula H_2 O, together with a detailed explanation of valence electrons and covalent bonding. I learned to program in Year 5, using an educational programming language called LogoWriter. My first game was called ‘Turtle Racer’: the goal was to guide a turtle around a racetrack without crashing more than twice. The teacher was definitely impressed. Upon realizing that I had intentionally obfuscated the code to make it difficult to read, I think he was also quite upset! My interest in mathematics began in Year 9, when I accidentally stumbled across the formula sin(arccos(x)) = cos(arcsin(x)) = sqrt(1-x^2). I recall using this formula to essentially ‘cheat’ my way through every trigonometry test the school decided to throw at us for the next couple of years. After graduating from Melbourne High School in 2007, I went to the Australian National University to participate in the prestigious Bachelor of Philosophy (Honours) program. However, it soon became clear that my real passion lay elsewhere, and I eventually returned to Melbourne to pursue a career in mathematics. I’ve since attained two degrees in the field. Though I’m now a professional maths tutor, I nevertheless remain interested in pure mathematics in general, and the foundations of mathematics specifically. In my spare time I work on ‘Immaculate’, an ambitious program to unify disparate ideas from mathematics and computing into a single cohesive framework.

For over a decade I've been using question-asking (the "Socratic method") to teach mathematics more effectively than would otherwise be possible using more conventional teaching methodologies. My teaching philosophy is simple: 1. Develop clear and comprehensive techniques for solving the relevant mathematical problems. 2. Use Socratic dialogue to help students reinvent and rediscover these techniques for themselves. 3. Use pictures to support the development of intuition and real understanding. 4. Test students repeatedly to find and address ‘gaps’ in their knowledge. Past students have included four-year-olds, PhD students, and many, many Year 12 students. Some have been neurotypical, while others have had ADHD, dyslexia or autism. And while some have been gifted, most came to me either because they were struggling with gaps in their knowledge, or due to an absence of motivation. In all cases, students have responded positively to the Socratic method.
