I base my lessons on the student; everyone learns differently. I began my career as a teacher in 2007 when I started working as a substitute teacher in the local schools and I fell in love with teaching and working with children. A few years later I took a TEFL course (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) and went to volunteer in Cambodia help out in the rural communities with teaching. I have since then also worked as a college teacher online, and a private tutor. These experiences have enabled me to be very flexible in my approach, as I have worked in various cultures and with students from different backgrounds.
I'm currently studying Medicine at the University of Bristol. I also have a PhD in Neurosciences, an MSc in Neurosciences, and a BSc in Biomedical Sciences. I have extensive knowledge in several subjects, including cell biology, biochemistry, anatomy, physiology, neuroscience, and much more.
I supervised several students during my PhD, and I have also worked as an English teacher in Cambodia, a private tutor, and a teacher for adults wanting to change career.
