Improvise, adapt and overcome. Finding the learning style that works for each student

I have a Bachelor of Science with honours in cellular and molecular biology, human biology, drug design and synthesis, infectious disease, psychology and biological psychology. My postgraduate qualification is a master’s in public health nutrition. This involved the study of human nutrition, clinical science, epidemiology, statistics and public health policy as well as behavioural change psychology. I have tutored independently for a decade now. Including home schooling for my son during lockdowns. My focus is always on finding the right learning style and tools for each student. For example, I created interactive online flashcards systems for the Scottish Curriculum. Which students can use to play games to solidify their learning. I try to find videos and other materials that may help those finding a particular area challenging. We all have our own learning style and sometimes finding the right format can be a true light bulb moment for students. I find coming to lessons with multiple different formats has really helped my earlier students grasp concepts they were struggling to understand with textbook learning. I also have training and personal experience of helping those with neurodiversity learn in an encouraging and supportive way.
