Hi everyone! I am a current third year student studying French and Spanish at Durham University. I’ve been a tutor for about three years and enjoy sharing my passion for languages as well as other subjects with my students. I always try to make my sessions fun and interactive! I am a current student at Durham University studying French and Spanish. At A Level I studied French, Spanish and History and achieved A,A*,A*. I studied a variety of subjects at GCSE and received grades 7-9 in all of my subjects, including grade 9 in Spanish, History and English Literature.

Medicine is a rapidly changing field which requires an acknowledgment of life-long learning. During my studies of GCSE and A levels for chemistry and biology , my competence for scientific thinking has improved and has tied in with my ambitions and motivations to be a Doctor. This has broadened my method of approach to learning and has allowed me to use multiple ways in different situations to solidify my knowledge and understanding. This has proved extremely effective as it has enabled me to secure a place in a Russel group Medical School. One of these ways was realising that one of the best methods to test and improve my learning was to embrace teaching as a form of revision including teaching my peers various parts of the specification. This enhanced my appreciation for teaching and gave me the courage to become a tutor. Each individual is different, so in order to ensure the students I tutor can achieve their best, it is important for me to implement multiple methods of teaching as well as ways of revising. This will provide the students with a more personal way of teaching compared to something they may receive at school which may not be as tailored to their way of thinking and learning. Some methods includes mini-quizzing, simplified diagrams, question and process walkthroughs, and a balance of small visual, verbal , and audible cues which can make a huge difference to learning. Learning needs to be active and intuitive, so a variety of ways to learn is imperative. Maths and Science prevalently were my favourite subjects in school to learn as they had consistent logic which when understood was very rewarding. However despite enjoying the subjects, they can be equally as frustrating and require persistence. Appreciating the challenges and conceptual difficulties especially in Science and maths, helped developed my appreciation for different ways of effectively learning being required which helped me achieve all 8's and 9's in science and maths at GCSE and A's and A* at A level. Ultimately I believe being able to personally implement a range of methods to improve my own results will translate very well in my teachings to help students to also improve.

I’m a Geography student at the London School of Economics. When I’m not doing university work, I enjoy drawing, painting, and reading books. I love watching films, and ‘Coraline’ is a particular favourite of mine. Music is another passion of mine—I’m a big fan of Lana Del Rey, Radiohead, and Blur. I’m excited to share my love of learning and help others reach their academic goals! I completed my secondary education at Barking Abbey School, where I achieved 10 GCSEs with grades ranging from 8 to 9. Following this, I pursued A-Levels in Art (A*), Geography (A), and History (A), developing a strong foundation in both the arts and humanities. I am currently studying for a BA in Geography at the London School of Economics (LSE), where I am in my second year. My degree has allowed me to explore a wide range of topics, from human and urban geography to environmental and economic issues. I’m eager to use my knowledge and experiences to support others in their learning journey.
