I inspire and empower students by designing personalized materials and employing student-centered strategies. I create an engaging learning environment tailored to individual needs and interests, ensuring that every student’s progress is prioritized. Their growth fuels my passion for teaching: learning made personal and impactful! I earned my degree in Secondary Education major in English, which deepened my understanding of both language and teaching methodologies. Throughout my studies, I explored diverse literary genres, effective communication techniques, and the importance of fostering critical thinking. I also learned how to design inclusive lesson plans that cater to the unique needs of each student, empowering them to excel academically and develop a lifelong love for learning.

I am a student at Politecnico Milano and I am pursuing my master's in energy engineering. I am an enthusiast who has an insatiable taste for curbing world energy problems with clean and green technology. This can be done in many ways but one of the most important ones is by correct education and implementation, hence I want to play my part by tutoring young individuals in technical subjects.

As someone who has excelled in mathematics throughout my academic career, I am confident that I can make a significant impact as a GCSE-level mathematics tutor. I have always been passionate about numbers, and I believe that this enthusiasm translates well into my teaching style. I enjoy breaking down complex concepts into simple, easy-to-understand terms that students can relate to, and I always strive to make my lessons engaging and interactive. In addition to my strong academic background, I have gained valuable experience working with students in various capacities, including volunteering as a tutor for younger students and coaching boxing at a youth level. These experiences have allowed me to hone my communication and leadership skills, which I believe are crucial for effective tutoring. My academic background includes pursuing an undergraduate degree in Mathematics at Queen Mary's University London. Additionally, I achieved A-levels in Economics (A*), Mathematics (A*), and Further Maths (A) and obtained 10 GCSE grades ranging from 9 to 6. Throughout my academic career, I have developed a strong passion for Mathematics and a deep interest in Economics. These subjects have challenged me intellectually and provided me with a solid foundation of knowledge and skills that I am eager to share with my students.

Primary level maths KS3 Geography GCSE Geography Exam Board Experience: Edexcel and AQA I can speak English fluently Preferred student age group: 8-16 Hi! I have experience tutoring primary level math students and therefore have knowledge of the understanding students should have, as well as how to help them get to that level. I thoroughly enjoyed studying geography at GCSE and AS level as it is an extensive subject. This is evidenced as Geography covers a range of topics, including inequality in human geography to tectonic and coastal matters in physical geography. At GCSE, I specifically enjoyed studying the cases in response to the growing population issue in Kerala and China, and how these different places used different approaches to respond to this. Furthermore, the essay structure of writing longs mark questions at GCSE and AS Level can be daunting. However, upon understanding the case studies and how they would apply to the question, imbedding the facts to the question can be accomplished and I would love to help students out in tackling this. I found Edexcel as a specification really helpful, as the topics were interesting but also on the website, the learning outcomes needed to be known for the final exam were clear. I have studied geography for one year at university but for other reasons had to change this. However, I thoroughly enjoyed the modules I learned, which included looking into the wider carbon cycle and environmental issues facing our planet. I look forward to helping KS3 and GCSE students looking for support in the subject by using my previous experience in tutoring to give tailored and student-specific assistance. I enjoy listening to music; I will happily bop along to pretty much anything in the indie rock genre. I also love singing, mainly classical and opera repertoire and learning new arias is something I do in my spare time. I am currently a law student however have a passion for geography and find it a fascinating subject. The skills one can pick up from the subject is so cast it can apply to different subjects as well. I was a course rep during my year studying geography, where I was a voice for my cohort on any concerns about the course. Evidence of such a role having a positive impact was seen in one of the modules, the topic was so broad it felt intangible to get to grips with. I discussed and made an action plan with the faculty on how this could be addressed. The end result was a more cohesive manageable lecture content, which is a similar approach I hope to bring to students when I am tutoring. I enjoyed helping out on open days during my time at AS level and GCSE as I felt confident to speak to potential students about the topics in the course as well as convey this in an exciting way to spark the students interests or in some cases, reinforce an existing interest. I have received a ARSM Diploma in Singing and enjoy singing in the choir at university. I am also in a band, and we performed at a Varsity event (unfortunately we lost). However, it was a new experience for me which I really enjoyed. I like learning about new cultures and travelling when I can. I have been to India and Canada, which I enjoyed, and I cannot wait to see more of the world.
