17About Me
Hello there, my name is Alston Rodrigues and I am a 3rd year medic student at the University of Bristol.
I believe that i am a very academically focused individual and strive to do my best in everything i attempt. I have signed up to be a tutor as I believe that is a rewarding profession as it allows students to reach their full potential. Tutoring is also something which I did in my Sixth Form, where I assisted GCSE students in Science and Maths. I also believe that I will be able to push my students to the best of the ability to ensure that they achieve exactly what they want to!
In my free time, I enjoy activities such as Muay Thai, listening to Music and playing various sports. These are methods which I have found to give me an escape from studying and help me maintain a good work life balance, which is also key in fulfilling a person’s best potential.
My teaching style
I believe that i am very versatile in my approach to tutoring and I alter my methods to best suit the individual requirements of the student. One approach I have found to be particularly successful has been the use of mind maps to test the students knowledge coupled with the use of past paper questions on that topic to further reinforce that knowledge.
My past experience
I have had around 2 years of tutoring experience now with medic mind and also with other tutoring companies and privately also.
