My Passion & How I Inspire

A lot of people tend to overlook the importance of the sciences and mathematics in the real world, and often have the impression that beyond their exams their application to their everyday life is completely irrelevant. I strongly disagree with this, as science and mathematics are around everywhere. I find it extremely pleasing to be able to observe an object or an event and be able to apply my knowledge to explain how this came to be.

I am very patient and able to explain principles in many different ways, so that I can strive to transfer my passion for these subjects to my students so that they can succeed to the best of their ability.

My Experience

I have worked for a Saturday primary school for children who are struggling to keep up with work set by their schools. This involves teaching small groups of children English and Mathematics to give them the confidence to be able to thrive in their schools.

In addition, I volunteered in Malawi at a children’s hospital, where I taught larger groups of children Mathematics, English and problem-solving skills whilst they were preparing/recovering for treatment.
