Alongside my PhD I tutor GCSE Maths and Psychology and all of my tutees have absolutely smashed their exams! 🌟📝 100% pass rate (or higher!) 🙌
It’s days like this which remind me teaching did have its good days. I feel very fortunate to be able to continue teaching through private tuition ☺️

A sunrise 7K CaniCross this morning which has set me up nicely for a day of reading papers 📖 🐕🦺🏃♀️ (and Russo for a day of napping 😴)
Strongly encourage anyone with a dog to try out CaniCrossing! (Cross-country running with your dog leading the way - I’m now approx 1 minute faster per km…👀😅)
