Kim

My credentials lie in the Sciences and Arts. I am interested in helping people develop and engender the most value from their skills gained.

I am currently tutor maths and science part-time and look to move into the ESL space as I enjoy a dynamic and expressive atmosphere.

I love the arts, and produce artworks on a commission basis.
