Aaron - Aberdeen tutor






Information About Aaron:


Personal Description:

My name is Aaron, I'm a 4th year medical student at the University of Aberdeen born in Newcastle. I've been involved in education most of my life, having the most experience in the sciences predominately. I'm a pretty easy going guy, most subjects i can find something unique and interesting to like about and try to read as much as i can about a varied range of topics, I try to spread the enthusiasm for learning to my friends I always seem to be spurting out things I've read without meaning to! I've played the guitar for 11 years and have successfully tutored two people along the way.



Teaching Experience:

Informally, I have been teaching my peers from A level and university for nearly 5 years, helped many people improve their grades. I've also taught two people how to play the guitar as I have a fair bit of experience there.

Formally I have done a 6 week teaching module at University (this year) working with kids from 11yrs old to 18 years old teaching mostly sciences in a classroom, preparing lessons and giving out homeworks.



Tutoring Approach:

I think the most important thing is to get people to think, to always ask why, question the dogma of a subject. I'm quite flexible about the way in which I teach. It's important to ask the person how they learn best, trying to accommodate each individual to the best of my ability. If it's a question of teaching a topic to someone, that I can do. If it's a question of going through problems with someone, getting them to do them, giving them hints when needed that I can also do.
