Andrew - Bristol tutor
Information About Andrew:
Personal Description:
I am currently a second year medical student at the university of bristol. In my first year I managed to gain the award of distinction, something only offered to 12 out of 250 people in my year group and overall I am on course to complete my degree with honours. I enjoy working with people and am very sociable. I spend a great deal of time doing sports and going to they gym as I believe its important to have a well balanced and healthy lifetsyle. Coupled with exam tutoring I am also open to any requests for help with applications to medical school which I know from experience can be a very stressful period.
Teaching Experience:
During my GCSEs I tutored biology students going through the same exams. I then extended this into my A-levels where I worked in particular with one student to pull up his biology grade by two marks and so get him into the course he wanted. Together we succeeded in doing this. Although my experience is limited it is increasing day by day and I believe because I have been through the system so recently I am able to understand what is expected for the exams from a viewpoint many other tutors haven't had the opportunity to do so.
Tutoring Approach:
I believe a lot of the time the difficulty comes from a failure in communication from the teacher. Putting things into different formats and processing them properly is the correct way to learn. Its never enough just to know something, things must be understood and this must be tested. To do this questions need to be both asked and answered by the pupil and that I believe is a key role of the tutor. Im fully open to tutoring more than one student at a time if asked to.
