Katherine

I`m a motivated, hard working, conscientious and passionate student at Newstead Wood hoping to start a medical degree in 2017. I`ve always wanted to be a philanthropist and work with people and children given the sense of purpose and happiness. I hope I can use my experiences to help a student either academically or with their confidence/attention or both. I have a love for children and hope to nurture their energy and creativeness whilst assisting them to learn and develop.

Availability: I am available any time on the weekends, and from 4:30 onwards on weekdays. I`ll always work around and try to fit in with the pupils schedule. If necessary I am happy to Skype, Facetime or use social media and online services to assist a pupil.

Willing to travel: 10 miles

Experience: I have previously tutored at Test Teach and Kin Learning in which I was able to develop my communication, my patience, and my organisation. I have experience marking, doing assessments, group work and individual tutoring to help tailor and strengthen the pupils needs. I`ve volunteered with Crisis, Habitat for Humanity and Foal Farm, where I assisted the homeless, the vulnerable and was able to learn the importance of kindness, love, patience, positive energy and generosity. I have experience with mental health and learning difficulties, as I myself have struggled with mental health issues. However this only empowers me in the hope that I can be more understanding, patient and empathetic towards the pupil.
