I am a vibrant and passionate teacher, who loves to see students succeed and fulfill their potential. I love my specialist subjects and really enjoy teaching them. I think learning is so much better when it is made to be fun and I always try to plan teaching sessions that students will enjoy- even when teaching the boring bits!

Tutoring Approach: I usually approach tutoring students by initially having a conversation to decipher a tutee`s particular needs and requirements and find out exactly what the tutee needs, and I then proceed with the tutoring by delivering a course of sessions aimed at meeting those needs and requirements. The sessions are very informal, yet still structured and I prefer the tutee to see me as a friend who helps as opposed to a teacher. I also always aim to build a trusted relationship with the tutee where he/she feels comfortable.
