    Jun 2022 - Present · 4 yrs 1 mo

    I tutor GCSE Maths students. The tough challenges, and the constant achievement from students is what I love about tutoring. Throughout school, I was constantly privileged to help students at both GCSE and primary school level to achieve their desired grades. Allowing students to maintain a confident approach when dealing with questions and scenarios was amazing, so I continued to tutor externally, and have found the joy in assisting students aged 7-16. I’ve always ensured that students are left satisfied at the end of every session.
