Bio
I am a bilingual graduate with a degree in Biology. I am passionate about biology, maths and language, and I believe in guidance that unlocks confidence and belief in yourself.
I am the class representative in my current postgraduate degree, which allows me to practice problem-solving and communication daily. Within my undergraduate degree, I took child and education psychology classes, which have taught me a great deal about school learning and the importance of empathy and understanding. I am also known to be approachable and patient.
