During my middle school and my A-Level years, I was a bit of a thespian, so when I tutor I do tend to be a bit over dramatic, I find it makes the session more engaging. The best way to learn information (I have found from teaching people lines and computer science) repetitive reinforcement is the best way to retain learned information, as such, that's what a lot of the sessions can include.

As far as my experience with working with younger people goes, a lot of it can be tracked to my helping of students in theater performances. I have been in many theater productions, such as little shop of horrors (where I had played the role of Audrey II), The Merchant of Venice (where I had played the role of Bassanio), Model Behaviour (where I had played the role of Stevey) just to mention a few. And in these performances, I've worked with many young people and older people are like, and as such, my skills at sharing knowledge/skills and my people skills are quite honed.

I have also worked with younger year 7s at places such as Poole High School, helping them to make their academic adjustments to the new curriculum.

Qualification wise, I am currently working on a bachelors degree with honors in computer science, but I do have A-Level qualifications in computer science and psychology, and a BTEC in performing arts.

I can do remote sessions over any medium you would prefer, the comfort of the client must come first.
