I first became passionate about writing in Year 8 when I began to see my writing improve from using basic connectives. Suddenly, I felt in control of my words and it became easier to interpret different view points and analyse varying interpretations. This gave me confidence in a lot of subjects as I started my […]

My approach to private tuition reflects the fact that for accounting and all areas related to corporate finance and private equity, it is vital for students to understand the underlying principles and concepts correctly from the outset. Much confusion and many errors arise in these subjects because they have been taught incorrectly or inconsistently and […]

I believe that the key to success in physics and mathematics is to develop a firm understanding of the fundamental concepts. Far too often students fall into the trap of “rote learning” the material or “learning to the exam” – memorising the answers to popular questions. This approach is very dangerous as it does not […]

Building up from core principles, my teaching method involves learning the essential base knowledge of the topics and then progressively building on the basics.

For example, if you’re a kinetic learner, we will build models together. And if you’re an aural learner, then we’ll burst into a song every […]

I feel like my relaxed approach to content which is explained with real life examples allows for anyone I am working with to feel confident and involved in the learning process. It is important to be able relate learning to a purpose or use, as a means of finding a relevance and being able to […]

When teaching I guide a student through the mental steps needed to accomplish the goal of the lesson. I typically spend much of a lesson in dialogue with the student. I break this up with […]

As an individual, I am enthusiastic, determined and a real ‘people person’. Having sat exams every year for the past 8 years, and continuing to do so I feel I am immersed in the challenges of modern academia and this will serve as a real advantage in my approach to my tutees. I think different […]

This flexible approach, combined with my engaging and personable character have allowed me to succeed in helping students significantly improve their academic performance and secure entrance to many leading public schools and universities. Whilst I understand the importance of adhering to […]
