Mathematics student offering high quality and new ways to learn Maths!

Ushni's CV

I am a dedicated, highly motivated individual with a striving passion for Mathematics. I have completed my GCSEs and received commendable grades in Mathematics and ICT which I achieved at an A-grade, and therefore continued to progress with these subjects for A-Levels. I am currently studying BSC Mathematics at University of Essex.
• I can concisely speak in Spanish (GCSE Grade A) and can also speak in Gujarati which is my mother tongue.
• Time management – I have developed the skill of punctuality through my academic studies by ensuring I was on time for school and lessons.
• Team working – Throughout my academic studies the importance of team work was emphasised and through this I could strengthen my team working skills.

Outside of studying, I am part of a non-profit women’s organisation that focuses on selfless service to help those in need. As the South London Regional Physical Activities Co-ordinator, I have strengthened my leadership, communication and presentation skills by taking on this duty. I have also learnt to balance my time by effectively taking on duties within the organisation while going through my academic studies.

I also volunteer as an English, Mathematics and Gujarati teacher at a supplementary school,where the students range from the age of 5 to 19. Through this I have developed my communication skills as I have worked with a wide range of ages.

In summer 2018, I went to India for 2 months through the Youth For Sewa scheme. I worked with the NGO Divya Vidyalay in India, which is a school for the mentally challenged and blind in the slum areas. I led activities aimed at education, character building and office based. I gained valuable skills of taking initiative and thriving in unfamiliar conditions and they were completely new for me as I was dealing with sensitive and challenging cases. Additionally, I adapted well with an entirely new group of people that do not speak the same language.
