9About Me
Hi, I’m Ayesha – a St Andrews University student who loves to help others in anyway possible and adores teaching others, regardless of the academic level you are at. I would argue that I am not judgemental, and I’m willing and wanting to teach and help students regardless of their academic level. I love seeing academic progression, as well as seeing pride and happiness that parents and students get after all the effort. I specialise in psychology in particular, but also sociology and religious studies – but I’m able to teach a wide array of subjects. I previously studied under the rigorous Brampton Manor Academy and acquired 3A*s (and I will work with the aims of helping my students achieve the same). I’m someone who is flexible and is able to change according to the individual students needs – so I think I’m suitable as a teacher to most, and I’d hope you decide the same!
My teaching style
I like teaching in a way where everything is simplified and easy to understand, yet still in depth. I like going in a systematic step by step manner, but I often change the way I talk and teach depending on the student. ie if they are more visual learners, I teach with more diagrams.
My past experience
Yes, as in school I worked with year 8 students tutoring them in chemistry during my breaks. I also helped by cousins and siblings do well in the fields I taught e.g. psychology, english, chemistry and maths in particular were improved subjects amongst all of them. I would have unpaid tutoring with my friends, in the fields of sociology, psychology and religious studies, and they improved a lot and achieved great a levels (ranging a-a*).
My Proudest Achievements
My A-levels; winning karate competitions and spelling bee are key.
