About Me

I believe that mastering foundational concepts is essential before tackling advanced topics. My teaching approach emphasizes getting the basics right, ensuring a solid groundwork for deeper learning. I am approachable but maintain a structured environment that discourages slacking. Decisive and adaptable, I tailor the course load to match each student's learning pace. To make complex ideas more accessible, I use analogies and abstraction, breaking down difficult concepts into intuitive, understandable components.

Education

University of Florida - Summa Cum Laude - GPA 4.0/4.0 - Presidential Honor Roll
A levels - English, Mathematics, Physics and IT
Research Assistant at IIT Madras

Experience / Qualifications

- STEM tutor at CPS Global School
- Teaching assistant at UFL
- Have taught A level English and Mathematics - students made a significant grade jump (on average from D to B or C to A)
Taught by Niketha, a Computer Science undergraduate from the University of Florida (Presidential honor roll, Summa cum laude) - this class offers comprehensive instruction in mathematics. I am interested in distilling difficult concepts through abstraction and my teaching methodology is to focus on strengthening skills in foundational topics through conceptual understanding and applied problem solving (through exercises). Math instruction ranges from algebra and precalculus to advanced topics like collegiate level real analysis (Analysis 1 & 2). I have previously tutored A level mathematics students (facilitated grade jump from C to A).

Learn Armenian language, grammar, literature and history in Western Armenian.
Western Armenian is a language that has been put in the endangered language's list, and I personally believe that such a rich language should never die.

1 to 1 History or English Literature tutoring for secondary-school students
1-1 tutoring sessions aimed to help students improve their grades and essay writing skills. Ideal for students needing a bit of extra help in preparing for their GCSE or A-Level exams. I adopt a friendly and encouraging method of tutoring which focuses on what the student needs from me in order to make progress. I can, for instance, look at students' past assignments, tests and exams in order to give feedback, identify weak points and make improvements together in the session. We can also read and analyse texts together, if this is something that might help improve their ability to pick out themes, make comparisons and critically think about the literature. For History classes, we can, for example, focus on planning longer essay questions and / or doing source analysis - picking apart a source and assessing its purpose, content and value. English Literature texts that I know particularly well include Macbeth, Othello, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, A Streetcar Named Desire, The Great Gatsby, Atonement, An Inspector Calls, Hard Times, and Keats's Poetry. History subjects I have a particularly strong knowledge in include Revolutionary Russia 1850-1950 and the 17th Century English Civil Wars. However, I also have a broad knowledge of many different historical topics and periods, including the British Empire, colonisation and decolonisation in Africa, Enlightenment Europe and 20th Century America. I will always try my best to integrate the methods of teaching and marking that the student's school prefers.
