My educational background is in mathematics and biology. I completed a Bachelor of Science in biology with a minor in mathematics at The George Washington University (USA). Subsequently, I completed a Master's of Research in Mathematics in the Living Environment at the University of York (UK) and a PhD in mathematical biology at the University of Dundee (UK).

While I was a student at The George Washington University, I was a teacher's assistant for an undergraduate mathematics course. I have also worked as a teacher's assistant for an undergraduate biology lab. For the past two years I have been tutoring students of different levels and age groups ranging from young children to adults in mathematics and English as a foreign language.

As a maths tutor, I specialise in teaching 11+ and Key Stage 3 maths. I am passionate about teaching because I want to help others succeed in their education so that they may have a solid foundation upon which to build their careers. I also like the camaraderie that I develop with students and enjoy working together on solving problems with them, particularly problems that are challenging.

In terms of my approach to teaching, I try to do my utmost to help students understand the material. At the same time, I want to make the students become independent thinkers and confident learners. Instead of giving them answers straightaway, I ask questions and try to guide them to solve problems on their own.

Aside from teaching I enjoy going to art galleries, reading and playing brain games.
