As a mathematician, I have developed some of most the most widely applicable skills. I have learnt to precisely formulate a problem, analyse the potential ways of tackling such a problem and finally use the most effective method to solve it. Aside from strong analytical and problem solving abilities, this process requires both perseverance and determination, traits of which would make me a strong asset to your team. I have shown I am capable of extensive research through my independent research project, graded a first class, where I was required to independently understand and translate complex concepts into clear ideas, presenting my findings both verbally in meetings and on paper. I have gained experience in analytical and data modelling tools such as R, Excel and MATLAB through my summer internship as an actuary and through multiple courses in my degree. I have developed excellent interpersonal skills through 6 years of tutoring maths to students of a range ages and abilities, 6 months of befriending a woman suffering from motor neuron disease and other such roles. I am passionate about working with people; combining the skills I have acquired academically with my enthusiasm for teaching, as shown through my experience of tutoring others throughout my own studies, leaves me very keen to apply the skills I have developed so far to an educational setting.
