Sasha B.

I’m a medical student with a passion for teaching Biology, Science, and Maths at primary and GCSE levels. Almost 10 years in higher education, I’ve learned two key things: 1) Every student can succeed with the right teaching approach, and 2) Learning should be active, using techniques like spaced repetition and active recall. I focus on breaking down complex topics, using examples, mnemonics, and past papers to help students understand. I’m patient and adaptable, always ready to find new ways to explain concepts if needed. Outside of academics, I’m passionate about sports, gaming, and tech. I’ve coached an under-15 basketball team and teach guitar at my church, which helps me connect with students and build trust to boost their confidence and performance. I graduated from Glasgow in 2020 with a 2:1 in Biomedical Sciences and am currently pursuing a medical degree. My strong academic background in Maths, Biology, Chemistry, English, and Geography enables me to offer well-rounded and insightful tutoring.

I am an educator with over 9 years of experience in teaching, student support, and program development. As an ESOL Teacher, I’ve taught non-native speakers across multiple levels, designing tailored lessons and coordinating curriculum delivery with partners to maintain high standards. In student development roles, I created enrichment activities, mentored leaders, and provided pastoral care—facilitating workshops on well-being and fostering inclusive environments. Currently working as a freelance teacher, I focus on interactive, student-centered learning. Fluent in English, Dutch, and spoken Arabic, I’m proficient in digital tools and Microsoft Office. I’m passionate about supporting local learners and helping college communities thrive through accessible, quality education. I hold a Master of Science in Ethics of Education, which deepened my understanding of how to create equitable, responsible learning environments that prioritize both academic excellence and student well-being. My undergraduate studies earned me a Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Education Studies, where I developed foundational knowledge in curriculum design, teaching methodologies, and learner development. I also hold a BTEC National Diploma in Health and Social Care (Health Studies) with Distinction* Distinction Merit, which has been invaluable in supporting students with diverse personal and wellness needs. Earlier in my education, I completed a BTEC First Diploma in Applied Science with a Merit grade, along with multiple qualifications in numeracy, literacy, and ICT at Levels 1 and 2—skills that enhance my ability to integrate technology and essential skills into teaching. I built my foundational knowledge through GCSE studies, which provided a strong base for my ongoing professional growth in education.

Growing up in a part of Ireland rich in natural beauty, I developed a passion for hiking and camping, along with music on the Uillean pipes, Violin and piano. I enjoy language learning: specifically Spanish and Russian. Naturally, my main focus is Physics, which provides a constant challenge with every strange concept introduced I attended St. Michaels College, Enniskillen for my GCSE's, of which I obtained 8 A*s and 1 A, before switching to Enniskillen Royal Grammar School in order to pursue Further Maths. Here I obtained an A*A*A* grade in Maths, Physics, and Further Maths. I’m currently studying a Physics degree at the University of Edinburgh
