My Passion & How I Inspire

I aim to ensure that my private lessons are as different to school as possible, creating a space that is both intellectually stimulating and enjoyable for my students. I try and encourage my students to think independently about the subjects we are learning, so that they develop the tools needed to do as well as they can.
