Dr Gracia Nshokano

The theoretical competency gained during my undergraduate/postgraduate studies and teaching experiences as filled me with the pre-requisite to work as a tutor. Throughout my academic years, I received training in conducting studies and literature reviews using database analysing and summarizing data for a variety of experiments in chemistry. I have gained my Chemistry knowledge during my Masters (MSc) at King College London, in Radio-chemistry and PET Radiopharmaceutical, My Master of Research Chemical Science (MRes) at Birkbeck University London, and my BSc in Chemical Science with medicinal Chemistry at Dublin Institute of Technology .

I completed my Ph.D. in 2023 at Brunel University of London, Department of Mechanical Engineering - Institute of Energy Efficient and Sustainable Technologies
Focusing on the Development of effective metastable nano-aerogel catalysts to improve the Hydrogen sorption characteristics of nanostructured Magnesium hydrides for high-capacity Hydrogen storage. I have been tutoring for three years during my doctorate studies.  I helped run two or three ‘one-hour Excel lab sessions’ every week during the spring term for a large cohort of level one Maths degree students, and Two hours of Mathematics during the first and second terms. During each session, I interacted with students individually and in groups to motivate them. I received positive feedback from the students and my employees. 

I am innovative, highly motivated, and interested in working in a challenging environment. I possess good communication skills - the ability to communicate effectively with people at all levels, good presentation, interpersonal and organisational skills. I can work on my own initiatives as well as able to work in a team under a tight schedule to meet deadlines.
