I am a recent Psychology graduate with five years of experience coaching children in epee fencing and a deep interest in all things education.

My previous experience of being both home educated and later attending a traditional Sixth-Form have given me a unique perspective on how individuals learn differently.

As someone who managed to achieve seven GCSEs with an average score of 7.2 through just a couple of hours of tutoring a week and independent study time, I have experienced how quality tutoring can provide an individual with the skills needed to excel independently.

In my down time, you'll find me playing D&D with my friends or cooking some exciting new dinner.

My five years of fencing coaching experience have given me lots of opportunities to support children and adults in learning new skills. In my practise, I try to have an open dialogue with participants so that they can set and achieve their own goals whilst learning the essentials of the sport. I also have a lot of experience working with SEN individuals with conditions such as dyslexia, autism and ADHD in this role.

I have some experience in schools, having led some history lesson activities in a local state secondary school and observed lessons from a wide variety of subjects.

I also conducted and presented memory research at The Open University Psychology Student Conference in my final year, which tested my communication abilities.

Lastly, I independently tutored my younger brother through History GSCE content.

I take the same approach to tutoring that I do with my coaching, working with the learner to achieve their aims. My typical approach is to support the learner's goals whilst providing them with the processes and frameworks to self-study, revise and problem-solve their way through questions.

I also offer support with university applications and writing personal statements.
