Experience and Dedication: I believe strongly in working alongside students to understand their interests and applying that to their learning. My students generally see improvement within a few sessions because we work on their existing skills and building new skills rather than blanket application of homework that schools often use. I have had SS (History Combined) student see her grade rise from 3 to 5 in her final examination because we worked on applying the knowledge to her existing skills, rather than forced memorisation. Moreover, my students have gone on to apply their new-found analytical and critical thinking skills from our work to other areas of their lives, such as going on to do Medicine in the University of Edinburgh and Law in Oxford Univeristy.
