Bio
Passionate about conservation and education sharing this passion and knowledge with younger individuals. In my free time, you'll find me outdoors: hiking, birding or spending time with family.
As a qualified teacher, I simplify complex concepts and relate these to real-world examples for easier understanding. I tailor lessons to the unique needs of each learner and have a genuine interest in the growth and development of those I assist. I also believe that my passion for the subjects I tutor shines through and encourages student growth, confidence and a lifelong love for learning.
