Hi! I am Shannon: the founder of Tutors for Life and a Biomedical Genetics student at Newcastle University.

If I had to describe myself in one sentence, it would be that I am a passionate and enthusiastic nerd, especially when it comes to anything related to STEM or Eastern Asian Language/Culture. I have a CertHE in Japanese Studies, TOPIK II and completed a research project whilst in 6th form in Eastern Asian Mythology and how it is portrayed in POP culture - like Pokemon! Nowadays, I spend my time researching the education sector, cancer and herbalism in addition to beginning my university degree and starting this business!

During my time at college and university, I began my journey into education and teaching, developing and learning new skills and tricks to aid engagement and ensure that students are supported in the areas they need. Now I have over four years of academic and therapeutic tutoring experiences, ranging from online to in-person across multiple subjects and have yet to find a student who has been "dumb" or "lazy".
