Analytical, energetic and super-keen! An Oxford Undergraduate Experimental Psychologist with a passion in neuroscience, psychiatry and music! I love my subject and I hope my passion could be "contagious", making everyone else love psychology as well...  I've done my A-Levels in the UK after 4 years of secondary school education in Hong Kong, making me fairly familiar with the new A-Level syllabus in Sciences (I was the first year to do it)

            I would analyze the learning styles of each tutee and create a personalized plan to help each of them to reach their potentials by breaking down challenging parts into simpler accessible ones. I believe no question is stupid, and that each opinion should be valued via in-depth discussions.      Even though I am studying for a BA, my A-Levels were science and mathematics based, with me designing and implementing award-winning experiments regarding topics I am curious about. This has helped me develop good grasp of how research questions in the interview would be like as well as being confident at teaching A-level Science and Maths.

            I have volunteered as a weekend mathematics tutor for disadvantaged primary school students in Hong Kong, which allowed me to develop good lesson planning skills. I have had mentored various students for Oxbridge both in Hong Kong and the UK, analyzing and giving advice on personal statements, making mock interviews and acting as an Oxbridge mentor. I have also had experience in teaching English, IELTS and essay writing skills

            I love singing! I have a Distinction in Grade 8 Singing, I have an active role in the choir, and can often be found on stage in performances. I also enjoy playing table tennis, reading cookbooks (often trying not to burn the kitchen to ashes), performing in musicals, and can also be found attending as many science lectures as possible!
