Tutor Bio
Hello!
I am a Tanzanian currently living in Canada to pursue my Bachelors in Science in Computer Science at the University of British Columbia. I recently graduated from UWC East Africa in 2021 where I completed my IBDP where I took my HL courses in Biology, Chemistry, English Literature A and SL courses in Math A&A, French B and Economics. I have been tutoring students from all over the globe in Biology, Chemistry and English for almost 3 years now as well as helping out with IA's, EE's and University Applications. As an IB Alumni who both sat exams and lived in boarding in the duration of my diploma, I am very well versed with all things IB and have created meaningful tutoring lessons to help current students achieve their goals.

Tutor Teaching Style
I believe in social learning, which entails speaking to students as individuals, listening to them, and treating them with decency and respect. They can't help but become invested in your class if you give them a reason to admire you by making them feel validated. I also believe that students learn best through collaboration and problem solving, hence, I nurture young people's energy and utilize their strengths to facilitate a stimulating and exciting learning environment.
I would begin by learning about the students' strengths and weaknesses with the subject and how they feel they know best. Together we would plan out a schedule that the student is comfortable with and set the learning pace for future sessions. We will also identify the problem areas and zone in on what is necessary to focus on, as well as expectations that their classroom teachers have from them. Additionally, I would provide the students with detailed yet straightforward topic-based notes that they can build upon once they are more comfortable with the content.
