Claire Ziling Lu

Thevinya Gurugama

I'm currently studying Medicine at Imperial College London and I have always had a passion for maths. Even as a medical student, there's not a day that we don't use maths to aid our understanding. I have always been enthusiastic about maths since it taught me that every big problem can be broken down into smaller more doable tasks. Teaching in my opinion is extremely rewarding because it allows you to see the growth and improvement of your student over time while building a great bond at the same time. In my free time, you can find me exploring London to try different cuisines and new attractions.
