Hi! I am Gonzalo and I am a final year PhD student at Imperial College London, doing research in the Department of Earth Science and Engineering. Before this, I did a Chemical Engineering degree back home in Peru. :)
I am passionate about research, but I am equally as passionate about teaching, which is something I have been doing for a while, both in one to one tutoring sessions and in classroom settings at uni.
I have experience teaching students from different levels and backgrounds. I have given lessons to children as young as 10 years old and to engineering university students.
In terms of the format of the sessions, I typically start by asking what the student is wishing to learn during the session, in order to tailor it to their specific needs. After this, I like to use a problem-based approach to teaching, where we identify any difficulties and target them as soon as they are spotted!
