With a little hard work, we can work together to make sure you reach your goal too. ----------------------------- We always begin the first class doing 2 things: 1) getting to know you- this builds a strong rapport between us, 2) giving an initial assessment to see what level you are at and what specific topics we need to work on. ----------------------------- After that, all lessons are based on previous classes and what you personally feel you need to work on in that particular lesson. ----------------------------- We'll also go through exam papers from the very beginning, so you know what's ahead. ----------------------------- Everything is well prepared and well thought of to ensure you get the most out of each and every session :) ----------------------------- Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions :) -----------------------------

Hobbies
I pride myself on being a very personable tutor, connecting with my students personality-wise. ----------------------------- All my 50+ students have said they feel comfortable and calm around me, which is something I believe significantly helps them achieve their goals! They know that even if they get an answer wrong, with me, it's okay because we'll work on it together in the best, most efficient way possible. ----------------------------- Aside from Maths, I love to travel, sing, dance, read self-improvement books and invest! I am passionate about teaching young people about investing, since I think it is important to understand.
