Kigwab

I’m a First-Class Honours graduate in Economics with a genuine passion for teaching and helping students succeed. I discovered my love for tutoring during university, where I supported peers by breaking down complex topics into clear, manageable steps—leading to noticeable improvements in their grades.

I believe in the power of personalised learning, especially for students who may not get the individual attention they need in a classroom setting. With strong academic skills and a structured, student-focused approach, I’m dedicated to helping learners achieve outstanding results in Economics, English, and Religious Studies.

Outside of teaching, I enjoy cooking, curating unique scents (perfumery), and exploring nature through hiking. I believe that a well-rounded life contributes to a well-rounded mind—and I aim to inspire the same balance in my students.

Tutoring Experience

My professional background spans government, finance, and counselling, allowing me to apply economic concepts in real-world settings and develop strong analytical and communication skills. During my time in government, I trained community leaders in two languages, further sharpening my ability to communicate complex ideas clearly and effectively.

I have over three years of formal tutoring experience, including working as a personal development tutor supporting young adults in recovery. I’ve also taught students across a wide age range—from early learners to university level—adapting my teaching style to meet individual needs. Leading a community Bible club for children aged 3 to 15 helped shape me into a patient, empathetic, and engaging tutor.

My goal goes beyond academic success—I aim to equip students with transferable skills, confidence, and a growth mindset that will serve them well in both education and the working world.

Tutoring Approach

I begin by discussing the student’s specific needs with them or their parent, which allows me to tailor each session accordingly. I follow the student’s curriculum closely and use relatable examples and analogies to make complex concepts easier to understand.

I listen attentively, take a genuine interest in their learning journey, and create a supportive space where they feel comfortable asking questions and expressing themselves. While I encourage open discussion, I always stay focused on helping the student meet their academic goals.
