Hi, I'm Sophie, I'm currently offering mentoring help to students. I studied Zoology at Swansea University and went on to work in an animal movement lab, teaching tagging technologies to Masters and PhD students. My next role was based in Singapore where I was a field biology teacher taking students aged 8 - 18 around different ecosystems teaching them environmental surveying techniques and ways to save our planet. When I returned to the UK I worked in an after school and holiday children's club encouraging the involvement of students in a number of activities. I then worked for a wildlife charity in Communications, Engagement and Training, boosting their online presence and reaching their ideology out to different demographics. My most recent role was as an Environmentalist and Duke of Edinburgh lead at a private school in Buckinghamshire. I am currently working towards a Masters in Sustainable Business at the University of York. All of this experience has allowed me to communicate well with students and show them how to get the best out of life. Sometimes they don't believe in their own ability, or don't currently possess the communication skills to achieve their potential. I am offering support to students to help them prepare for general academic life and study. Together we would look at workload, homework, revision skills, school or university applications and how to approach people in their day to day academic life. Life in school can sometimes be hard on a student, this is what we'd work together on to make sure they have the best experience possible. I am DBS checked, safeguarding and child protection aware, first aid trained and have voluntarily mentored and tutored students before. I have just come out of a role at a school therefore have a comprehensive understanding of teaching and pastoral care. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to reach out to me.
