I have seven years of experience tutoring Mathematics, Physical Sciences, and other STEM subjects. Throughout my career, I have worked with reputable tutoring organizations such as Kumon, Master Maths, Teach Me 2, and Axiom, providing personalized academic support to students of various ages. Additionally, I served as a Tutor Manager at Azi Learning, where I oversaw tutor coordination and monitored student progress. I also worked as an au pair, managing after-school schedules, study plans, exam prep, and meal planning to ensure a balanced lifestyle.
