Fiona

I am a graduate of the University of Leeds with a first-class honours in International History and Politics. I have since undertaken a law degree, obtaining a distinction. I am currently studying for my Legal Practice Course, before I start my training contract as a solicitor at a top London law firm in September 2023. I also currently work part-time for Queen Mary University of London and volunteer as a legal caseworker for the National Centre of Domestic Violence.

Tutoring Experience

I have an extensive background in education, having spent four years working as a Maths and English tutor at Kumon and three summers working as an English as a foreign language teacher at Project International to students from all over Europe, Asia and the Middle East.

Tutoring Approach

Having taught both young children and children whose first language is not English, I have honed my ability to communicate confusing concepts clearly and engagingly to maximise understanding and impact and my ability to improvise and adapt my styles, methods and timing to a variety of audiences.

I have learnt that it is imperative to understand what interests and motivates each individual so that I can maintain engagement throughout the duration of my teaching sessions.

Most importantly, I promise to be approachable and show genuine kindness whilst also doing my best to make each session fun and engaging. I will always take the time to learn about your preferred teaching style so that I can tailor my sessions to you.
