Odhrán

As an experienced business professional with a diverse background in digital marketing, business analysis, and strategic management, I bring a wealth of practical knowledge to my role as an online tutor for business students. My academic journey includes achieving the highest grade in my master’s degree at Queen’s Business School, coupled with my ongoing PhD research on digital startups and competitive advantage at Queen's University Belfast.

My career spans several countries, including Spain, the UK, Germany, and the Netherlands, providing me with a global perspective and a deep understanding of different business environments. I have a proven track record of driving significant revenue growth, optimizing operational strategies, and leading successful digital marketing campaigns.

Beyond my professional achievements, I am also a dedicated musician, having founded and managed the MELO String Quartet and toured Europe as a principal violist. This artistic pursuit has honed my empathy, creativity, and ability to connect with individuals from various backgrounds.

Fluent in English and proficient in Spanish, I am committed to fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment. My empathetic nature and diverse experiences enable me to connect with students effectively, helping them navigate their academic challenges and achieve their goals.

Tutoring Experience

As an experienced tutor with a strong background in business, I specialise in guiding university students through their final year, particularly in dissertation preparation and qualitative research. My students consistently achieve high results, with all of them scoring over 70% on their dissertations. I take pride in having helped some students raise their grades from the 50s to distinction levels.

I hold a master’s degree from Queen’s Business School, where I achieved the highest grade across all programs, and I am currently engaged in PhD research focusing on how digital startups maintain competitive advantage. My research, based on qualitative methodologies, gives me a deep understanding of data analysis, thematic analysis, and conducting insightful interviews, which I effectively pass on to my students.

Tutoring Approach

My tutoring approach is characterized by being approachable and empathetic. I understand that each student is unique, and I always strive to align with their individual learning styles and needs. This adaptability has proven especially effective when working with students with neurodivergent conditions, ensuring that they feel supported and understood throughout their academic journey.

I maintain a positive attitude and foster an encouraging environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and expressing their concerns. My goal is to not only help them grasp complex concepts but also to build their confidence and critical thinking skills. By focusing on each student's strengths and addressing their challenges with patience and positivity, I create a learning experience that is both effective and enjoyable.
