I have a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry, Master's in Business Administration, and I am a Certified/Chartered Accountant (CNA). This academic background, combined with my practical teaching experience at various prestigious institutions, allows me to present complex concepts in an easily digestible format.

My tutoring sessions are tailored to each student's unique requirements. I develop personalized lesson plans that focus on specific goals, whether it be improving grades, preparing for exams, or enhancing understanding of a subject.

I believe in maintaining clear communication with both students and parents, providing regular feedback on progress. Staying updated on educational trends and best practices allows me to deliver relevant lessons.

My mission is to help students achieve their academic success. I have a genuine passion for teaching.
