Bio

I am passionate about knowledge and enjoy being able to share tips and tricks that I have learnt. I aim to explain concepts in creative, memorable and understandable ways to ensure the best outcomes.

I always aim to match the level of whomever I am explain concepts to by using clear, understandable language and relating concepts to everyday life. I often use pictures or diagrams as I have found that it can make explanations clearer and easier to understand. I also often check-in with whomever I am teaching to ensure understanding and to answer questions for clarity to prevent confusion.
