Bio
I am a 21 year old student who is incredibly sociable, but equally academically focused. I wear my heart on my sleeve, I'm incredibly caring and empathetic and I love helping others through tutoring.
I struggled with anxiety at school and had to work hard to achieve the marks that I did. I understand the difficult students face when it comes to the pressure of academic achievement. I am an empathetic person which helps me understand what a student is facing and what might be hindering them from achieving the marks they want to achieve. I was tutored in school and benefited massively.
