In my degree I was taught about the best revision techniques for long-term retention and which methods best suit different learning styles. Due to this I am very focused on adapting tutoring, so it fits your needs. I base my classes around what suits the pupil best, incorporating a range of methods to improve performance such as guided learning and practice tests. The best results are achieved not by working the longer but by working smarter.
I recently graduated from Cardiff University with a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology, I have been tutoring for two years now with students ranging from 11 to 21. I have helped students go from B to A* grades and achieve 100% in coursework assignments.

As the social secretary for my university ice skating group, I oversaw all promotional materials and media outreach for our 90-person group. I also organised all socials and fundraising events, negotiating with sponsors and venues. Last year, that translated into a 9% increase in club clothing sales and 12% increase in ball and fundraiser ticket sales over the previous season. I have grown our web and social media presence substantially, and we have seen a 47% increase in Facebook and 24% in our Instagram followership.
