Bio

I have a good sense of humour, I love books, movies and above all, my pets. My dream is to someday become a novelist and screenwriter, living somewhere beautiful.

I like to approach most problems with a sense of humour, I've learnt it's easier to understand or remember a concept if you can associate it with a funny story or analogy. Whenever anyone asks me for help, I never judge and I keep my own ego out of the situation.

Education

• Recently completed a B.A. Honours Degree in Film and Television Studies; expecting to graduate in March 2020. Taught in South Korea for 6 months in 2018 as a TaLK Scholar.

My Proudest
Achievements

• Becoming a Member of the Golden Key Society.
• Passing my Advanced Scuba diving course in stormy weather.
• Completing a 15000 word thesis for my Honours degree.

I struggled with Maths when I was young, so I enjoy helping other children understand and enjoy Mathematics as I remember what it was like at their age.

Art

Grade 1 - Grade 12

I love Art and would be able to help with both the theory and practical aspects of the subject.

English
