Julia enjoys learning about different cultures from language, to dance and food. Julia enjoys cooking, ice skating and Brazilian Jiujitsu.

I’m a passionate tutor with experience in a wide range of subjects. I am outgoing and enjoy helping students develop confidence and clarity in their learning.

I tailor my lessons to each student’s level, pace, and goals, making sure they not only understand the material but also enjoy the process. Whether you’re preparing for exams, building foundational skills, or simply want to improve, I’m here to support and guide you. Rather than simply providing answers, I guide students to discover them through carefully chosen examples, thought experiments, and counterexamples. I pay close attention to each student’s strengths and areas for improvement, adapting my approach accordingly—whether that means breaking down complex arguments into manageable parts or pushing advanced students to explore beyond the syllabus. I also stress the importance of revision, feedback, and intellectual humility. Mistakes are treated as learning opportunities, and I aim to foster confidence through mastery rather than shortcuts. Ultimately, my goal is to cultivate both independent thinking and disciplined analysis, so that students leave not just knowing more, but reasoning better.

Feel free to reach out—I look forward to learning together!

Hello, my name is Serena Sze and I am from Hong Kong and have studied in Singapore before and am currently in the UK. Hence, I am quite familiar with different type of learning methods which I have observed throughout my studies in different places. I am currently a second year medical student in King’s College London and has just finished my A-levels. I scored a 2920 B1 in my UCAT and received offers from KCL and University of Glasgow. I did a research project on the integration of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine for stroke rehabilitation. I am very interested in helping different students to find the best way to study as there are a lot of different studying methods currently, such as Pomodoro. However, I do very much understand the difficulty in finding the best way to do it and I would love to use my experiences to guide them to the right direction.
