About Devika
Emerging STEM Role Model with Strong Maths Foundations
Devika is an aspiring engineer who brings strong STEM skills and clear communication to her tutoring. Her background in high-level maths, science and design technologies means she can explain tricky concepts in a practical, stepbystep way, especially for primary and early high school students. Recognised with an academic award in practical engineering, she is used to turning theory into real, handson problem solving, helping students see how classroom maths and science actually connect to the real world.
Leadership and Mentoring Experience with Younger Students
This tutor has actively supported younger students as a peer support leader, guiding them through school transitions and daytoday challenges. She has coordinated large student assemblies, managing planning, timing and communication – all skills that translate into wellstructured lessons. Through mentoring and pastoral support, Devika has learned how to build rapport, listen carefully, and adjust her approach to different personalities, which is especially valuable for students who may be shy, anxious, or lacking confidence in maths.
Problem-Solving Mindset and Global STEM Perspective
Devika’s participation in a global STEM innovators program shows her ability to tackle complex problems and think creatively about sustainability challenges. She uses this mindset in tutoring by breaking down problems, encouraging students to “think like engineers”, and showing multiple ways to reach an answer. As a member of student engineering clubs, she regularly collaborates on technical projects, giving her fresh, engaging examples to bring into lessons. This tutor aims to make learning feel relevant, logical, and even a bit fun for each student.
