I am a current graduate student studying an MSc in Integrated Immunology at the University of Oxford. My interests mainly reside in Human and Medical Biology, in which I am keen on studying on Immunology and Inflammation, but I am also fond of Cancer Immunology and Vaccinology.

The way I teach is through understanding concepts and how to apply critical thinking to answer questions, not through mere memorization. My teaching methodology involves looking at problems and questions, and from there I would try to engage with the student to understand topics and learning how to break down a question so it seems less daunting to tackle. Biology is always a tricky subject for a lot of students, but with the right mindset it won't be as scary as it seems. I am a friendly, engaging person, don't be afraid to approach me and ask! Asking is always the right way to learn, and no questions are stupid! I am also always ready to modify my teaching methodology in accordance to the needs of the students! So feel free to contact me so we can discuss more on it.

I used to give free tuition lessons to students in my alma mater during after school hours, and although my time with them weren't long, I've received positive feedbacks about the way I engage on topics, able to easily attract their attention on some seemingly boring topics. They are able to excel in their studies, being able to improve on their high school exam results. My peers have also expressed their approval on my ability to explain topics in simpler terms, easing on understanding.
