Saksham K

My name is Saksham and I am currently a second-year university student majoring in accounting & finance. Throughout my education, I have studied under many school boards including IGCSE and IB, and I am very confident to tutor students for KS3 and GCSE Maths and Biology. I have lived in various countries, allowing me to meet and socialise with people from different backgrounds. I am a friendly tutor, with a positive attitude, and I enjoy meeting new people and understanding their culture.

The two subjects I am passionate about and come easy to me are business and maths. I have tutored maths to students in both primary school and secondary school as well. As a student who struggled with grasping topics quickly at a young - age, I know the difference a patient and a caring tutor can have. This is what I aspire to be. Furthermore, during Pinktober, the breast cancer awareness month, I volunteered to do a presentation explaining the biological side of cancer to students and parents of the school. I chose to volunteer as I was comfortable with public speaking and the teaching experience.

In order to plan a productive lesson for students, I would ask the student how comfortable they are with certain topics and areas that they find difficult. In order to test their strengths and weaknesses, I would prepare an assessment and understand how difficult they find certain topics in the first lesson. Further lessons would be based on how the students perform on homework and if they have questions. At the end of every lesson, I would ask the student if they are ready to move on or need more practice with certain topics.

I have lived in many different countries where I have faced various exam boards for IB and IGCSE. Studying subjects from various boards helped me to understand how different students like to learn.
