Information About Aoife - Roscommon tutor

Personal Description:

My name is Aoife and I am currently studying Science Education at the University of Limerick. I have a passion for all things science, especially Biology and Chemistry, and I cannot wait to become a full time teacher. I got five H1's (including Biology) and two H2's in my Leaving Cert. I aspire to instil the same sense of passion for science in my students that my science teacher instilled within me. As well as science, I have many hobby's including Irish dancing and music. I am an avid Irish dancer and have won many titles over the years; North American Champion, Scottish Open Champion, All Ireland Champion and most recently placing second at the World Open Championships. I am looking forward to completing my teaching exams and becoming an Irish Dance teacher alongside being a science teacher, I also have a love for music. I play both the tin whistle and the piano. Music has always been a large part of my life has led me to the place I am today.

Tutoring Experience:

I completed work experience in my local primary school and loved it!

Approach to Grinds:

I intend to take a very practical approach to teaching. From experience, I find that the best way to learn is to cover a topic in theory and follow it up with practical and real life examples in order to fully understand the topic at hand. Furthermore, I believe it is really important to complete exam based questions on the topic as this trains the brain to prepare for the exam
