My name is Lorena, and I am excited to introduce myself as a potential tutor for Maths and French! I have always had a passion for these and helping others learn, and I believe that education is one of the most valuable investments we can make in ourselves. I have 2 years of experience as a tutor and have worked with students of all ages and skill levels. My approach to tutoring is personalized and adaptable, as I believe that every student learns differently and has unique strengths and challenges. I strive to create a comfortable and supportive learning environment where students feel confident asking questions and making mistakes. I look forward to sharing my knowledge and enthusiasm with you! I have been nominated as highest achiever in the French department at my Sixth form multiple times. During my first year at university, I am proud to say that I have won an award for creating one of the most creative educational group presentations of the year.

I am a 2nd year medical student who is dedicated and determined to helping others reach their goals, improve their confidence and help people enter exam season feeling prepared. I have 3 years experience in tutoring so I am very comfortable with all exam boards at GCSE and A level. I help my students by giving them tips on how to answer exam questions and ways to maximise their marks as well as just understanding the content. If I'm your tutor I promise to try my hardest to push you to your goals in a way that is best for you by altering my teaching style depending on what suits you best.
