I am a student at the University of Oxford finishing my Masters in Engineering Science. I have achieved 44/45 in my IB diploma and will graduate from Oxford with a 1st. My academic achievement have taught me the skills required to learn and succeed in scientific and mathematical subjects. I'm enthusiastic about the possibility to help other students in this field and share the experiences that I have acquired throughout the years.

            I like to let the students talk and try to solve questions on the topics they struggle with. This gives me an understanding on the ways they approach questions as well as what their strengths and weaknesses are. This allows me to choose a method of teaching that fits the student needs and that addresses their main priorities.  I am patient and like to provide useful resources to the students where they can learn from and practice questions.

            I have worked for Kognity for 1 year as a feedback handler. Kognity is a company which provides online courses and materials for students doing IGCSE or IB programs. My job consisted in answering students’ feedbacks and improve the company’s online materials. This job taught me how to explain complicated concepts that students have difficulties grasping in a simple manner.

            I really enjoy coding and programming during my free time. Other interests that I have are sports (mostly running) and cinema.
