Abbie J.

I am someone who loves to learn new things, especially when it comes to cultures and languages, so much so that during lockdown I taught myself Turkish. I can speak 3 languages fluently, (English, Farsi and Turkish) and am currently studying two languages at degree level (Spanish post A-level and French from beginner's level).

GCSE - English Literature/Language A Level - English Literature/Philosophy My name is Jyotsna and my interests are in philosophy, reading and writing, hence why I want to teach the lot! My teaching style is mostly discussion-based - almost like Socratic questioning. I believe this helps ideas and concepts stay in your mind for longer, as the student is the one that has to do the intellectual heavy lifting. I have just started the first year of my philosophy degree at the University of Durham, after having completed English Literature and Philosophy A-Level. I have tutored a GCSE English student before and have also led KS3 philosophy society, where we have discussions based on the A Level Philosophy syllabus (Utilitarianism, Kant’s deontological ethics and Aristotleian virtue ethics).

Science has always made me curious and the more I studied it the more interesting it became. There is so much to learn about science, it is like a never ending book. I love reading and writing books as well as working out, travelling and horse riding.

Hi, My name is Harrison. I am a second year medical student at Leicester medical school. Academically, I enjoy biology, chemistry and maths the most as I took them at A level and stay up to date with them due to my degree course. Outside of studying I enjoy playing sports, playing both football and baseball. I also enjoy helping others as I have volunteered at many different charities and programmes and I am currently helping out a programme which introduces emergency medicine to 15-17 year olds. I am looking forward to helping out people achieve their academic goals! I am currently a year two medical student at the medical school of Leicester university. Previously I completed secondary school and sixth form at Bishop's Stortford College, where I studied Maths, Biology and Chemistry. I achieved A*, A*, A respectively and achieved all grade 9s in my GCSEs.
