I recently graduated with an MEng Mechanical Engineering with Management degree from the University of Edinburgh. I specialise in both maths and physics, offering private tutoring to a range of ages and abilities. My previous role as a secondary school teaching assistant has provided invaluable experience in adapting teaching methods so that learning material is accessible to all pupils. My involvement in varied community activities has also allowed me to expand skills beyond an academic setting.

My tutoring approach is very much adapted to each student's needs and learning style. I begin with topics that students are comfortable with and as their confidence builds, we progress gradually towards more complex areas that they may have difficulties with. I recognise the importance of organisation of resources prior to a tutoring session and this is something I pride myself in. I like to gain an understanding of a student's interests and hobbies outside of their academic life to draw on real life examples that may be easier for them to relate to. Above all, I believe that students must be comfortable in their learning environment. This allows them to communicate effectively during tutoring sessions, build confidence and ultimately improve their academic performance.

I am also an active part of Women in STEM, attending events across the UK and striving to educate others on the opportunities of a career in STEM.
