Mentored fellow undergraduate students in groups and on a one-to-one basis to enhance their communication, public speaking, presentation and PowerPoint skills. Led weekly sessions to help students prepare their dissertation presentation by providing individual feedback upon the completion of the speeches, encouraging the group to move out of their comfort zone and engage in the sessions by introducing games that further improved the above skills. Worked one-to-one with students who had learning disabilities (such as dyslexia, ADHD, autism), and mental health issues.
Ensured their needs were met based on their personalised support plan. Also carried out administrative work on a weekly basis, handling confidential data and entering the students’ progress into Microsoft Excel.
