My Passion & How I Inspire

My approach to tuition depends on your needs. I understand that some of you will be looking for tutoring to achieve a specific grade, and some of you will be looking for tutoring to support your overall understanding about a subject. Starting from our first session and throughout our sessions together, I will make sure that we build an engaging and trusting relationship. Hopefully, you will be able to comfortably tell me what you might find difficult, or what you would like us to work on. The most productive lessons are those in which you have left either feeling more confident in your subject, or feeling as if you are one step closer to accomplishing your target.

Generally, if you are looking to achieve a certain exam result, I believe the best way for me to help you do this is to firstly teach methodically around the syllabus points. Once you are familiar with your entire syllabus, we will focus on strengthening weaker areas so that you are confident in all the subject material. Along with this, we will make sure you get as much exam practice that you need to attain the result you want!

If you are looking to improve your general understanding through tutoring, we will firstly establish your current understanding and interests within the subject. From there, we will spend sessions covering important topics to ensure you have a solid foundation of knowledge. As we identify topics you are more unfamiliar with, we will spend time learning that topic in much greater detail through discussion, exam questions, and other engaging activities.

If you are looking for university application counseling, I will support your application by making sure it demonstrates you to your biggest potential. I understand that each student will have an unique application, so I believe the best help I can give you is to encourage you to be critical of your own application, interview techniques etc. Through our sessions we will make sure you are confident that your application has accurately reflected your skills, talents, and achievements. In terms of admissions tests e.g. SAT, BMAT, UKCAT, I can help you by providing a guideline of each test and their requirements, exam technique tutorial, and exam practice.

With any tutor help you need, we will work towards the specific goals you want to achieve. My approach to tutoring is entirely student centered!
