My Passion & How I Inspire

I have an engaging and well thought out approach to tutoring. When I was a pupil I found the traditional methods of teaching un-engaging and difficult to follow and so I aim to tailor the tutoring experience to each individuals needs. I’m a firm believer that finding a way to making the subjects fun and interesting is the best way to see results. Inspiring passion for the subjects I teach is important to me and I am always searching for different methods to teaching the material.
