Private Online English and Biology Tutor

Brain Injury Rehabilitation Worker and Examination Specialist currently pursuing an MSc in Cognitive Neuroscience at UCL. I possess a strong background in tutoring a wide range of subjects, both in research-based and creative fields. In my professional role, I adapt my teaching methods to accommodate different cognitive capabilities.

I have also volunteered as a Research Assistant in forensic settings and vestibular neuroscience, which has equipped me with knowledge in conducting and interpreting biostatistical analysis using IBM SPSS. I can provide guidance on the ideal direction and composition of writing results, employing various statistical tests such as non-parametric and parametric tests, ANOVA, descriptive statistics, and regression.

Additionally, I hold notable accolades, including The British Psychological Society Undergraduate Award 2022 and the Elaine Gladstone Prize for Highest Overall Performance 2022.

In addition to my expertise in tutoring, I can provide assistance with career path guidance, personal statement writing, CV writing, proofreading, and editing various academic and creative works.

Tutoring Experience

I have been a tutor for three years with excellent feedback, and many of my A-level students have successfully gained admission to their top university choices. My lessons are suitable for individuals up to Master's level study. My experience in neurorehabilitation enhances my understanding of attention, learning, and memory, which are essential cognitive functions for academic success.

Tutoring Approach

Recognizing that each student is unique, my primary goal is to develop a comprehensive understanding of their individual needs and learning preferences. This enables me to deliver personalized lessons that optimize their learning potential. I firmly believe that a student's motivation, engagement, and ability to effectively encode information are crucial factors in achieving this outcome.

To actively involve my students in the learning process, I encourage them to participate during lessons by verbalizing their answers, engaging in discussions about what they have learned, and asking questions before the session concludes. This interactive approach fosters a dynamic learning environment, enhancing their comprehension and retention of the subject matter.
