With a degree in Mathematics and studying medicine, I want to help students achieve their goals and make a difference in their lives`. I have a wide range of experiences in teaching, ranging from working in schools, one to one and group sessions. I want to show students that learning is not just about memorising and doing exams, it`s about understanding how and why. Once this is built then it can be applicable anywhere.

Having been a student and working in schools I have gathering certain techniques in which students will find very useful when studying. I have also gained an insight in what is expected by schools and exam boards.

My teaching methods will ensure that the student has full understanding of a certain topic before moving on whilst working alongside the specification. It entails: mini tests, oral tests, quizzes and worksheets which will be set for homework. This will all be checked thoroughly to make sure that the understanding is gained and progression is being made.

As a teacher I want to show initiative ideas of studying which will help the student achieve their best. I want to also show that studying can be fun when you put your mind it, setting independent goals which in turn will make the student feel more confident with their work.
