Bio
I am an involved and well rounded student with a passion for helping others understand and see things as clearly as I do. I am patient and friendly and am willing to go out of my way to help.
Not a day goes by where I don't find myself assisting my friends with understanding work. And this goes as far back as the start of high school where i spent most nights before a test or exam at a whiteboard teaching others in my boarding house the work for the looming test. I love to help people see work the way I do and derive great satisfaction from their successes.

Subjects
- School Tutoring
Mathematics
Mathematics was my strongest subject in high school and also part of the reason for my choice in undergrad. My involvement in Advanced Maths and university level Engineering Maths has given me a firm understanding of the subject. I love Maths.
Advanced Mathematics
Mathematics was my strongest subject in high school and also part of the reason for my choice in undergrad. My involvement university level Engineering Maths has enhanced my understanding of the subject. I've tutored many peers to successful result.
Physical Science
Physics is my passion and Chemistry is my future (Chemical Engineer undergrad). I feel that my in depth knowledge of the subject allows me to structure simplistic explanations of complex problems which would pave the way for understandable tutoring.
Life Sciences (Biology)
Biology is a subject which I understood thoroughly at school. My success in the subject was consistent over the practical, theoretical and literature based parts of the syllabus. This wide spread understanding makes for easy conveyance of knowledge.
AP Maths
Mathematics was my strongest subject in high school and also part of the reason for my choice in undergrad. My involvement university level Engineering Maths has enhanced my understanding of the subject. I've tutored many peers to successful result.
English
English requires more a specific mode of thought as opposed to theoretical understanding as is with other subjects. This way of thinking was crucial in my achieving a distinction. It's important for learners to practice the subject with this in mind.
Accounting
Although this is far from my current undergrad I do believe I have strength in teaching subjects I am confident in. One of which being Accounting. I excelled at this level and am still familiar with its concepts.
- University Tutoring
Engineering Maths
I am currently enrolled in the second semester course which is a follow on of the course listed above. This has provided further understanding of some topics covered in the above course.
Physics
I excelled in this course which was testament to my problem solving nature. I was also involved in much after hours work helping peers work through tough concepts which is why I believe I can tutor at this level.
