I am a second year student studying at Imperial College London whilst being a dedicated Teaching Assistant working with students at the GCSE and A-level standard. I display my skills in assisting teachers with individual and group instruction. I am often called in as a means to work alongside and communicate with the younger audience on Saturdays and during the exam season when their technical ability needs to be polished. I am sympathetic and patient in my interactions having been through the educational struggle myself. I have lead a group of 5 Year 10 students through the GCSE maths course so that they could write the exam early, with 4 of them achieving a grade 9, the highest possible and a grade 8.

I participated in the "Hightide" work experience who worked in conjunction with Teeside University to provide a 3 day insight into marketing and business. The highlight of this was the group project where I had a responsibility to forecast the revenue, budget and sales and present it to the judges. We designed an interactive table which received high praise. From this I learned how to quickly adapt to the strengths of others and define the roles of the team to ensure a smooth operation across out time restraint. 

I am a student member of the Institute of Analytics (IoA) where I am kept up to date in the field of analytics and data science, being committed to further my education. As a member I have access to 350+ courses where I explore the mechanisms of data science and analysis to support financial decisions. My interest has taken me to view the "Analytics for Accountancy and Finance tool kit" webinar because I aim to proactively keep track of the technological changes in our modern horizon.

I regularly go to badminton sessions on a weekly basis with family friends to stay healthy and refine a skill outside of the classroom. Being active keeps my mental fortitude strong as I am enjoy playing the sport and disconnect from the desk and chair.

In my coming year of studies, I will be attending a 10 week accountancy module with Imperial College Business School as part of the university's "I-explore" programme. This will extend my mathematical approach to the delicate perspective of financial accounting and management accounting which aids in financial decision making and management control.
