My Passion & How I Inspire
As I am an Eritrean born British citizen, I have always found the complicated and obscure history of the country I come from so interesting. So much so that I was inspired to learn more about it and this in turn encouraged a deep-rooted passion for the subject. I have since, endeavoured to learn more about the history of other cultures and countries all around the world. I think my inspiration to tutor comes from my ability to surmount adversity and to actually thrive within a subject I, though having huge interest in, was achieving rather poor grades for. In year 10, History was my worst subject yet after the supervision of teachers who inspired me greatly, I finished senior school with the highest grades in the year for the History exams that I had taken – this whilst dealing with a medical condition that for many would have proved difficult in conjunction with exams. Personally, History as a subject more readily represents a set of transferable skills in which one can explore a whole league of different relevant fields – whether it is science, technology, social issues, gender, international relations between countries, politics, economics etc. Therefore, I feel that for any student, one’s passions, preferences and interests can in some way be channelled into the subject such that they are completely engaged and encouraged to study it.
