About Me
My father’s a diplomat so I have spent my whole life moving around the world and I think it’s made me a much more dynamic and rounded person. I find it easier to connect to people, love being introduced to new cultures and people, and find it very easy to adjust to things that might seem very uncomfortable at first.
I have lived in 7 countries and just moved to my 8th. I love to travel, recently have gotten very much into cooking (probably because now I live alone as a student!), and doing yoga and pilates.
I am also currently trying to learn French – which is a lot harder than I expected, but I love the challenge and I don’t think there’s anything more satisfying than hearing someone speak a language you’re trying to learn and actually understanding them!
How I Can Help
Because I’ve followed both the American and British schooling system, I’m quite familiar with most of the popular curriculums in the world right now. My brother followed the IB system and though I never followed it myself in highschool, I used to tutor him and became quite familiar with the IB curriculum as well.
I followed a very rigorous O and A level system in Pakistan and Hungary so am an expert in the British curriculum and have compiled an extensive list of resources that would be helpful for potential students in an array of subjects.
I also have a few years of tutoring experience teaching children as young as 9 to highschoolers who are about to graduate. I have also helped highschoolers with their university applications and creating/editing their resumes/CVs.
