Katya M.

Private tutor in Edinburgh, United Kingdom

Education

Chemistry Undergrad at Heriot-Watt University. I have just completed the 3rd year of my MChem and am on track for a 1st. If you haven't heard of Heriot-Watt (I certainly hadn't before I applied) it was ranked No. 1 in the UK for Chemsitry 2015 by The Guardian: http://www.theguardian.com/education/ng-interactive/2014/jun/03/university-guide-2015-league-table-for-chemistry

Experience

Most of my "tutoring" experience comes from discussing the more tricky aspects of my degree with my organic chemistry loving flatmate and classmate. I'm more of a physical/inorganic fan myself, and have helped him through many of the more maths/physics based parts of the course. (Though I would happily tutor any chemistry at all. Even organic isn't so bad...) I'm also very particular about my notes. They are neat and often colour-coded.

Hobbies

I'm from the Shetland Islands, so I play the fiddle, really like beaches and can handle the bouts of horizontal rain that the sky likes to bestow upon us as some kind of cruel test of resilience. My minor subject at university is French, so I have an obligatory love of French films and pastry. I will be living in Lille next year as part of my degree to do a research placement, and become completely bilingual. I've also done a fair few amateur plays as part of my local Youth Theatre, which I loved, so I won't be too shy. And, if you like tea, Terry Pratchett or cats, I'm sure we'll get along just fine.
