Hello! I am a first-year student attending New York University in Abu Dhabi majoring in chemistry and pre-medical studies with hopes of becoming a physiotherapist.      During my secondary years, I attended Bangkok Patana School and Nexus International School Malaysia where I completed my IGCSEs and IB respectively.      My results are as follows :   IGCSE (Cambridge)   Chemistry - A*  Biology - A*  Physics - A*  Economics - A*  Geography - A*  Chinese (Foreign Language) - A*  English Language - A  English Literature - A  Mathematics - A*     IGCSE (Pearson)   Physical Education - 9      AS Level (Cambridge)   Mathematics - A     IB : 44   HL Chemistry - 7   HL Biology - 7   HL Mathematics (Calculus option) - 7   SL English A (Language & Literature) - 7   SL Mandarin B - 7   SL Psychology - 7   TOK - B   EE (Biology - secondary) - B

            With older learners, I usually let them take charge. Though I will be able to prepare materials, I believe that taking initiative is that best way to go. As a result, in addition to clarifying unfamiliar material, I presume that students will come with questions they have already attempted but were unable to answer. However, I am also a big believer in having fun whilst studying, so I will incorporate games into the lesson plans!

            I have taught many different students of varying ages. From teaching English to young children in year 2 to science and maths older teenagers undertaking their IGCSEs and IB Diploma. As a result, I am adaptable to individuals' learning styles and am patient with my mentees.

            I love playing sports - especially basketball and volleyball! I also watch the occasional tv show and k-drama.
