Adina

I recently graduated from the BA Childhood Studies programme at the University of Leeds. I began tutoring aged 16 and specialise in English, Sociology and Religious Studies. For these subjects I received A, B, A grades (respectively) at A-level and A`s in all three subjects during GCSE. My biggest strength is Philosophy and Ethics, as I achieved 100% in my AS Philosophy and Ethics exams in 2016.

I have experience with working with children with Special Education Needs as I have three younger siblings who have Autism, Asperger`s and Down`s Syndrome. I, myself, have ADHD so I know how to engage and relate to children who may struggle academically for reasons beyond their control. If you are looking for a specialist lesson plan, please contact me and I will try my best to accommodate your needs.
