Hi! I am a second year studying Biology and Economics at the University of Exeter. I completed Maths, Biology, and Economics A-Level and received 3 A*'s. I am a very chatty character that loves working with younger children. I have a creative mind and love finding new ways to make learning more fun. I prefer teaching 11+ and 13+ exams and can also tutor up to maths GCSE. I have volunteered as a tutor before and skyped children in Kenya to teach them basic Maths and English. This sparked my passion for teaching, I really enjoy getting to know my students and learning about their different hobbies and I will try to incorporate this into my lesson time to make it even more fun!
