1About Me
My name is Yijia Chen (Keira), currently studying mathematics as an undergraduate at University of Oxford. For me, Math is filled with fun, excitement, and of course sometimes frustration. But I always believe that everyone who is genuinely interested in maths can do it well, though sometimes learning could be taxing and time-consuming. But don’t worry! I can share my way of learning math, for you to learn the most with the least time.
Of course, I love math, and teaching is fun. I had a gap year before I came to Oxford. During that time, I worked for educational consultancy firms where I got to teach Year 11 and 12 students to help them with their university applications. I think passing knowledge to prospective students, and possibly seeing them on campus next year is extremely heartwarming!
My teaching style
I believe that every lesson should be fun and flexible. Every student has their own strengths and weaknesses — it’s just that students are sometimes unclear about what they are good at. So what I need to do is to identify these strengths and weaknesses, and then of course use tailored lessons to enhance strengths and improve weaknesses. In short, be targeted, and be efficient.
My past experience
I worked for educational consultancy firms where I taught Year 11 and 12 students in 2022.
