Bio
I’m a patient tutor with a background in early childhood development. With years of experience mentoring university students and tutoring learners of all ages, I bring empathy and clarity to sessions
I connect easily with people and know how to adapt my teaching to suit different learning styles, whether I’m working with a young child or a university student. My background in healthcare and mentorship means I’m not just focused on results — I’m attentive, encouraging, and genuinely invested in each person’s growth. My goal is to make the student independent of my help.
