Tailored methodology to excel and feel fulfilled in learning. I aim to provide a holistic approach to learning:

i) Fundamental understanding of concepts and course content. For example, equation derivation/motivation, reasoning based on first principles, and developing further study habits.

ii) Methodology to approach exam-styled questions. Understanding the flow and structure of the most common types of questions, deconstructing harder questions, and managing timing and energy usage effectively.

iii) Transferable skills for further studies. Utilizing effective study mediums such as flashcards, notes, and voice recordings, and techniques like Pomodoro, spaced repetition, Feynman method, sensory attachment, and more. Recommended supplemental activities including chess, card games, memory exercises for cognitive activation.

iv) Honest conversations about emotional regulation with DBT science. Building confidence and mindfulness before exams, overcoming mental blocks during timed exams, understanding the mind-body connection, and more.
