About Me
I am currently studying Computer Science at the University of Cambridge. Prior to attending Cambridge, I achieved 9 GCSEs at grade 9 and 4 A-Levels in Maths, Further Maths, Economics, and Physics (A star in all but Physics). I have a passion for both technology and education, bringing a tailored and adaptable approach to tutoring.
I offer tuition in GCSE Maths, Triple Science, English Lit & Lang, Computer Science, and A-level Maths. I have over a year of experience tutoring, and a track record of helping students improve their grades by up to three levels. I am also well-placed to support in Oxbridge Computer Science applications, providing guidance on personal statements and interview preparation. My teaching methodology is focused on meeting individual student needs, ensuring that they reach their full potential. I am also able to provide career guidance.
Qualifications

My teaching style
My teaching style is adaptable and student-centered, focusing on each student’s unique strengths and challenges. I work to make complex topics approachable, using real-world examples and breaking down difficult concepts into manageable steps. My approach involves active participation from the student, whether through questions, practice problems, or interactive discussions, ensuring they build both confidence and independence in their learning. I prioritise creating a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and exploring new ideas.
My Proudest Achievements
My proudest achievement is earning the best GCSE results in my secondary school—a milestone that taught me the power of hard work and support. Growing up, education wasn’t a focal point in my family, as neither of my parents attended university. My drive came from the encouragement of my teachers, who consistently pushed me to reach my potential. Their guidance was instrumental in building my confidence and helping me believe in my own capabilities, even when I had self-doubt. This experience has instilled in me a strong passion for tutoring, as I understand firsthand how impactful mentorship and support can be. I’m committed to giving my students the same encouragement I received, helping them believe in themselves and reach their full academic potential.
