Personal Introduction
I am 33 years old and live in Manchester, England. I have completed an MSc in Innovation Management and Entrepreneurship from Manchester University.
I enjoy watching films, listening to music and reading books. I like playing hockey, cycling and going swimming. Also, I love learning about people and cultures.
Experience
Since June 2012 I have been tutoring many nationalities online and face-to-face. I teach English and to students of all ages and abilities, both online and face-to-face, and I am really enjoying helping my tutees achieve their dreams.
From 2009 to 2011, I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to teach college students in Guangzhou, China. I taught English and business and my students then went on to study degrees at universities all over the world.
Education
In April 2014, I completed my Masters in Innovation Management and Entrepreneurship at Manchester University, England and have achieved a 2:1 in Business Management from Newcastle University, England. I went to a highly prestigious school in Edinburgh, Scotland, where I received six Highers (2 As, 3 Bs and a C) and ten GCSEs (8 As and 2 Cs).
