Hi, I am fourth year Civil Engineering undergraduate at the University of Liverpool. I studied Maths, Physics and Geography at A-Level and am passionate about teaching GCSE Maths and Physics. *I am currently taking on new male students for GCSE Maths, and GCSE + A-Level Physics for 1 lesson a week.* I have tutored a range of students throughout my two years at GoStudent ranging from Year 4 up to Year 13 in both Physics and Maths. My approach with most students is laid back with my understanding that a tutoring session must not feel the same as the school day. Most students are fed up of school at the end of the day, and continuing a similar environment after school in my experience does not lead to great engagement from students. For the students to learn they have to want to, and trying to make the tutoring session as laid back and enjoyable as possible I believe works really well. I studied A Level Physics, Maths and Geography and have gone on to study Civil Engineering at the University of Liverpool. The course mostly focusses on the practical application of mathematical and physical concepts which to me is much more interesting than learning the theory behind everything which can sometimes be a little boring.

It is so rewarding to make a difference to people's lives. I enjoy yoga, cooking and travelling around the world. It's fascinating to learn about different cultures. My favourite thing about tutoring with GoStudent is that it's a fantastic online platform and you can teach from anywhere in the world!

Combining this personal touch with my mentoring capacity, I've been successful in unveiling the hidden potentials of numerous students, facilitating significant academic progress. My students regularly improve their grades by as many as 5 levels within a single academic year.

Last, but not least, I enjoy all forms of sugar - especially cake! Aside from my degree, I am qualified to teach TEFL. I really enjoy working with those who don't have English as a first language. It's a thrill to help them improve their speaking and listening - as well as reading and writing skills. It's wonderful to see them grow in confidence when expressing themselves in English.
