I am a young student, which I believe places in me in a far better place to mentor and tutor a child. I hope, this will act as inspiration for what they too can achieve with a little hard work and self belief.

I spent the last three years as a tutor, the former as an in-school tutor working in schools, therefore I'm familiar with the curriculum being taught. I was assisting in lessons and running intervention groups. As part of my role, I was also placed in charge of reading intervention for KS3 mainly working with year 8's and 7's. I have one on one experience, as well as helping the teachers in lesson. I found it worthwhile enabling students to power through, whether it be by encouraging them to try or adapting the way they perceived tasks.

The past two years, I've been working as a private tutor catering to year 8 - year 11 students. I focus on first targeting problem areas, before moving on to solidifying the understanding of the subject. All through this process, we will be using exam questions and exam style question where available, to give the best possible chance for the Exams. I'm very relaxed and love to input a little humour for my sake and the student, as it fosters a relaxed environment and the student to take on my input.

I have 3 years experience of working in schools but also as a private tutor. I am also able to cater towards SEN, having worked as an SEN TA this last year.

I am starting at Queen's University Belfast where I'll be study Economics and Accounting.
