About Luminița
I am Romanian, 57, and I came to England 17 years ago. I was a very successful mathematician in my country and I came here with a "work & study programme". At the moment I'm studying Physics with Open University and volunteer for Action Tutoring as a Maths Tutor, Year 10 and 11. In my free time I'm working on a book, named "The geometry of normed spaces". I am very passionate in programming languages, especially Java and I have a good understanding of AI. Another subject I am very passionate is Quantum Computers. I realised people like me are really needed in the UK. Mathematics is very relaxing to study, when you understand it and learn it the right way.
- Is mathematics helping in real life?
- Yes, mathematics helps your brain to develop. It's like going to the gym, but this time you train your mind, a bit at a time. And after that, you can easy learn any other subjects, because the brain has all the structure and connections needed and logic. Things you learn, in any domain, will be stored and organised in long term memory. Just because the brain knows how to deal with information and select what's important from what's not.

Usually my lessons are 2 hours in length. The first session will be just to know the student and understand if there are any gaps to be considered and what exam he/she is preparing for. My first students will get the first session for free. Usually, I work with 1 student at a time, but I can accept 2, if they prepare for the same exam and their level is somehow similar. I can teach maths for GCSE, AS & A levels and my methods are mainly "learn by doing". I can explain theory as well and help when needed, but the students are doing most of the work, guided by me. When they have questions, I can help, but it's not me going to the exam. So, it will be a lot of practice. I always had very good results. My students passed their exams, some for GCSE, other ones Bacalaureate and others had to pass the exam to enter a good University. My methods are different, according to each student. I always need to make sure that the student understands what is doing, not just mechanical learning of rules, which will be forgotten a few days later. Everything must be stored as long-term memory, and it must be enjoyable in order for that to happen. Maths is not boring anymore, when studying with me. It's like a challenge. Every time learning something new, and consolidating the old knowledge.

I met Luminita over 50 years ago! We were classmates in high school. She always excelled in Math, so I recommend her with all confidence! When you choose her as a mentor, you will not regret it.
O cunosc pe luminita inca din adolescenta, am fost colege de liceu. Ate o inteligenta mult peste medie, foarte buna la matematica, foarte serioasa in tot ceea ce face. Ca urmare a reusit sa isi construiasca o cariera frumoasa de profesoara de matematica. O recomand cu caldura!

I have known Luminita since we were teenagers; we were high school classmates. She is highly intelligent, very good at math, and very serious in everything she does. As a result, she has managed to build a successful career as a math teacher. I highly recommend her!Prin prezenta, doresc să ofer cele mai bune recomandări pentru colega mea Luminița Dobrescu, în prezent profesor de matematică, pe care o cunosc încă din perioada studiilor noastre comune.
Încă de pe băncile școlii, Luminița Dobrescu s-a remarcat printr-un set de valori morale și intelectuale care o fac un pedagog de excepție astăzi. Amintindu-mi cu drag de acea perioadă, pot confirma că a fost întotdeauna un model de modestie impresionantă, deși rezultatele sale la matematici erau remarcabile.
Dincolo de excelența academică, ceea ce o definea erau o onestitate și o seriozitate debordante. A fost întotdeauna persoana pe al cărui cuvânt te puteai bizui, fără nici o rezervă. Mai mult, spiritul său altruist s-a manifestat timpuriu; deși disciplina era una dificilă pentru mulți, ea își găsea mereu timp și răbdare să ne ajute pe noi, colegii care întâmpinam dificultăți, explicându-ne conceptele cu o claritate și o pedagogie nativă.
Această înclinație naturală de a-i sprijini pe ceilalți, combinată cu rigoarea matematică, s-a transformat în cariera sa de astăzi. Sunt convins că elevii ei beneficiază nu numai de cunoștințele sale vaste, çi și de integritatea și echilibrul său interior.
O recomand cu toată încrederea pentru orice poziție didactică sau proiect educațional, având certitudinea că va aduce valoare și profesionalism oriunde va activa!

I hereby wish to offer my highest recommendation for my colleague Luminița Dobrescu, currently a mathematics teacher, whom I have known since our time together at university.
Even back in school, Luminița Dobrescu stood out for her moral and intellectual values, which make her an exceptional teacher today. Looking back fondly on that time, I can confirm that she was always a model of impressive modesty, even though her math results were outstanding.
Beyond her academic excellence, what defined her was her boundless honesty and seriousness. She was always someone whose word you could rely on, without reservation. Moreover, her altruistic spirit manifested itself early on; although the subject was difficult for many, she always found the time and patience to help us, her colleagues who were struggling, explaining concepts with clarity and innate pedagogy.
This natural inclination to support others, combined with mathematical rigor, has shaped her career today. I am convinced that her students benefit not only from her vast knowledge, but also from her integrity and inner balance.
I recommend her with complete confidence for any teaching position or educational project, certain that she will bring value and professionalism wherever she works!
Este un profesor empatic, responsabil, capabil să motiveze elevii.
Are abilitatea de a face matematica accesibilă și interesantă pentru elevi de toate nivelurile.

She supported and guided me throughout my studies with great dedication, combining patience with a high level of discipline and academic rigour.
She is a highly committed and well-organised teacher who explains concepts clearly and thoroughly, making sure they are fully understood before moving on. Her demanding but supportive approach helped me build strong logical thinking skills, confidence and consistent results in mathematics.
I would strongly recommend Luminița to any student who is looking for a serious, knowledgeable and motivating maths tutor who genuinely cares about her students’ progress.She is a dedicated math teacher who explains concepts clearly and in an accessible way for all students. With consistent effort and hard work, her students can achieve excellent results.
