Advert description
I'm a biologist turned Maths and ESL teacher who has helped hundreds of students get the GSCE/A level score they need to follow their dreams at university.
I lived in Spain for 5 years where I first began teaching in classrooms, but soon transitioned to working one on one with struggling students. My down to earth, personable approach makes me an effective teacher for neurodiverse learners and I have extensive training and experience working with students with ADHD, autism, anxiety and depression. Many of my students believed that maths would never be their thing, but have made 180° turnarounds and been able to not only graduate high school and achieve top scores in higher Maths, but have fun along the way!
My Science background also allows me to put mathematics, especially statistics, in a real-world context which makes it both more accessible and interesting. If you want to take your Maths or Science to the next level, get in touch and we'll arrange your first lesson free!
