Thalia Y
Tutor in Dunvegan, Edenvale • 28 years old
Bio
I am a Science and English nerd who is passionate about learning! I understand that learning can be daunting but let my friendly nature put you at ease as we learn together.
My friendly nature encourages students to ask me questions without the fear of looking foolish. I always try to simplify concepts as much as possible - science can be very intimidating due to the jargon so I always try to relate it back to real-life examples and explanations. I like to plan ahead and will often identify and resolve problems that students may incur when covering specific topics.
