About Me
I take an eccentric approach to maths and French: I have rarely had a clear direction (other than optimising my grades) and this has led me into the most inapplicable realms of pure maths and to moving to France. I have taken courses in the history of mathematics, programming, and German because the more that I follow my curiosity, the more motivated I feel.
On graduating, I was hired as a credit risk analyst in a financial services company and I hope to develop a crash course into programming, data analysis, and how to create documents and presentation for the finance industry now that I have made tutoring my full-time job.
I am bubbly and light-hearted in my tutoring sessions and I like to construct a plan-of-action with my students so that we can adapt their studies to suit them and be sure that we are working at an effective pace. I like my tutees to build confidence, more than anything else.
Some random facts about me, to get to know me better: my greatest extra-curricular passion is philosophy, I can do the splits, and I am a big fan of rock and jazz music.
Tutor Experience
Students enjoy my encouraging yet driven classes and they feel confident going into their exams due to my linear teaching style. Less-confident students prefer me to strip their course down to the basics but top-achievers come to me for experience-based advice on how to achieve the top grades, find the best study resources, find gaps in their knowledge, and ensure the marks that they deserve. I always work as hard as my students do and I provide a summary of the content covered and relevant practise questions to help my students organise their work and ensure they get the most out of my sessions.
I began volunteering as an economics tutor with Coronavirus Tutoring Initiative during the pandemic and have been tutoring ever since. I have a profound understanding of mathematics, having achieved a first at Bristol University alongside three awards for academic achievement (including one of two highest grades in the year) and regularly writing articles for howtosurviveamathsdegree.com. I have led classes on pure mathematics at undergraduate level and have tutored at GCSE, A-Level and undergraduate.
I am fluent in French, having taken classes at Sorbonne University, Paris, and I spend half of my time living in France with my partner. As a result, I have an impressive understanding of both formal and conversational French, as well as French culture. I have tutored GCSE French but university-level students tend to prefer relaxed oral practise sessions involving cultural advice before their semesters abroad.
Topic Expertise
Mathematics
I have achieved top grades in every level of mathematics up to undergraduate and have a particular interest in pure mathematics. I have experience with the AQA and Eduqas GCSE and A-Level syllabuses and would be confident teaching these or adapting to any other UK syllabus for GCSE or A-Level.
French
I achieved a level B2 at Sorbonne Universite but have since improved my ability furthermore with time spent in France and constant practise. Having studied in France, I feel confident with both formal and casual French. I have before adhered to AQA's A-Level and GCSE syllabuses for French and would feel confident adapting to other syllabuses. I enjoy providing casual speaking practise and cultural advice for undergraduates before their semester abroad.
