My Passion & How I Inspire

In advance of each lesson, I am always well prepared, with a clear idea of the material that we need to cover. I possess a genuine interest in all the subjects that I teach, so I hope my students enjoy our lessons together. If youā€™re feeling positive, I believe academic success is much more likely. I therefore focus on building a studentā€™s confidence, aiming to keep them relaxed and focused. We progress at the studentā€™s pace. I like to ask lots of questions, so I can assess whether we can move forward or need to spend longer on a certain topic. I endeavor to be thorough: there wonā€™t be a question you canā€™t answer come the day of the examination!
