I am currently studying Neuroscience at the University of Leicester, this is an area I am immensely invested in and fascinated by. I am a music tutor as well so was excited at the opportunity to tutor at an academic level with subjects I have thoroughly enjoyed and excelled in. I have always been a good problem solver and I am a strong believer that any hard work pays off. I am patient and understand that some topics may be more difficult to grasp than others so I am determined to find mechanisms and strategies to make sure there is a solid understanding for each student. I have previously worked as a healthcare assistant, at Amazon and in customer services, which have enabled me to have qualities that were applicable to my studies. I really hope that students will be able to reap the fruits of their labor through tutoring when they then see their results. I have a friendly approach to my teaching and am willing to break things down in a way each student can get. I am a visual teacher so tend to draw lots of diagrams, flow charts, and present pictures to make ideas and concepts stick for students. Students can feel free to ask questions even out of lesson hours and I am also available for emergency sessions or to help with homework questions. In order to be as successful as possible with students I build a relationship with Students that helps me understand where they are at currently and their end goal.
