About

Instead of naming an intended audience, I would rather say, look out for the topics you want to learn and need help with and want to understand.
We will play lots of quizizz and I will teach everything in a lecture-like but in a way to build long term memory.
***PARTICIPATION is a must... you need to unmute.

Tutor Qualifications

I took geography grade 2 and grade 3 at least 5-6 years ago. I remember all the knowledge. I am taking Grade 8 geography.

About the Tutor

I am Jil. I am a secondary school student in the UK. I am a grade A* student in Mathematics, English, Philosophy, Sanskrit, Spanish, History, Geography, Sciences, Computer Science, Design and Technology and Citizenship. This may be a lot but why not! All of these subjects at this point in life are important substantial that you should have knowledge of. In the future, I haven't quite decided what I want to do, but I would either want to pursue law or the pathway of an investment banker.
