Bio
I am a wellness counselor, and a TEFL accredited teacher. I’ve always been educating or helping as far as I can remember and with my skills, I can do so in a nurturing, fun and engaging way.
I am ‘stubbornly patient’...I don’t mind sitting down with you in those slumps and I’m committed to working through every option in order to solve a particular issue. Additionally, I am the sort of person who seeks to bring the subject to you, not the other way around. I make complicated concepts easier to understand in a way that resonates with you specifically and I try to cater for each person.

University Tutoring
Psychology
First Year - Third Year SSGP111As an ASCHP designated wellness counselor, psychology is tremendously valuable to me. General psychology is a great stepping stone to that area and it gives the rundown of everything I use to this date if not more. I can help elaborate on aspects in this module and assist with essay writing
English Literature
First Year - Second Year SSENLiterature can feel dense, but I help students unpack stories, uncover key themes, and express ideas clearly. I also provide detailed feedback on essays to ensure your writing is concise, insightful, and engaging.
Linguistics
First Year - Third Year SSELLinguistics explores the rich connection between language, culture, and community. I help students simplify complex ideas, understand what examiners seek, and build confidence in mastering this fascinating field.
