Experience
As a tutor, I have primarily helped students with their applications to university courses where I am highly skilled at providing critical thinking training for assessments, management/business interview coaching, and broader teaching to prepare oneself for higher education. I also have experience tutoring more widely with GCSE, A-Levels, and general academia.
My tutoring style focuses on creating a relaxed and informal teaching environment where I aim to test students ability to engage with complex ideas and topics that are new to them. This approach is vital for success in interviews, tutorials, and broader university life.
I am also adept at training students for the TSA and other critical thinking assessments for university admissions. Here I focus on teaching students to understand the larger picture and what the question is trying to test. Adopting this mentality (and lots of practice!) is vital in being able to reliably achieve the highest marks.
Additionally, I can offer more career focused help, e.g. cover letters and CVs, if required as I have coached people at university, have a strong set of experience, and a wealth of material to use.
