Biography and Training

After earning a Bachelor’s degree in Mathematics from Occidental College, I went on to achieve a Master’s in Chinese Medicine and a Doctorate, further supplementing my expertise with diplomas in Neuroscience, Neuroanatomy, Psychotherapy, and Holistic Life Coaching.

I am trained in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), EMDR, Vagal Toning, and Thought Field Therapy, allowing me to address both the emotional and psychological aspects of learning alongside academic achievement.

During my studies, I worked with patients at the Arthur Ashe Mental Health Hospital at UCLA (Los Angeles, CA)and the Emperor’s College Clinic, providing treatments to improve mental health. My medical background enables me to enrich lessons beyond standard tutoring.

I am currently writing several books on health and science, drawing upon my clinical experience and medical research.

Tutoring Experience

Over the last 20 years, I have taught and built confidence in thousands of students of all ages and abilities, including those with dyslexia, ADHD, autism, and other learning disabilities (SEND), achieving outstanding results. I specialise in preparing students for Mental Health & Wellbeing Support

I integrate mental health techniques into my tutoring to support students’ confidence and learning:

• Addressing test anxiety using EFT and CBT strategies

• Supporting students with learning disabilities (SEND) including ADHD, dyslexia, and autism

• Creating a calm and supportive environment for all students

• Offering flexible support outside lessons — students can reach out with questions during the week, and I respond when I can

My career has taken me across the globe, including significant positions in the United States, Europe, and Asia. In the USA, I served as a top tutor at the Beverly Hills Tutoring Center for over seven years, working closely with high-profile families, celebrities, and politicians. Since relocating to the UK, I have continued my work as a tutor and educator, supporting students across England and Wales, both as a private tutor and online classroom teacher.

I have extensive experience in private and classroom instruction, including developing comprehensive curricula for multiple online and in-person tutoring organisations. I tutor mathematics, science, and English, and provide test preparation for Key Stage, GCSEs, A-Levels, and the American SAT exams.

Academic and Exam Support

I specialise in helping students achieve top exam scores and maximise their academic potential. I have created predicted exams based on an extensive collection of past papers covering typical maths, science, and English problems. I also design assessments, progress reports, and engaging learning activities to support student success.

I have tutored adults in preparation for a variety of exams, including:

• Mensa IQ Test

• Royal Navy Recruiting Test (RT) for Marines

• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) test

• University Clinical Aptitude Test (UCAT) for aspiring doctors

I have assisted doctorate students with dissertation writing, nurses with essay composition, and computer science students with advanced mathematics. Additionally, I support students in writing personal statements for college and university applications.

Mental Health & Wellbeing Support
