Information About Merina Sara - Galway tutor

Personal Description:

I am a postgraduate student currently pursuing an MSc in International Accounting & Analytics at the University of Galway. With a strong academic foundation—including a Gold Medal in my undergraduate studies and a distinction in my M.Com—I bring both technical expertise and a passion for learning to my tutoring. My experience as an Audit Executive at Deloitte has equipped me with practical insights into financial systems and global standards, which I enjoy translating into accessible lessons for students. I’m also actively involved in campus societies, where I lead initiatives that foster creativity, collaboration, and community.

Tutoring Experience:

I have over a year of professional experience in audit and financial analysis, complemented by academic excellence in international finance and accounting. I’ve tutored peers in subjects such as IFRS, financial reporting, and budgeting, and regularly assist classmates with coursework and exam preparation. Beyond university-level support, I’ve also tutored both primary and senior school students, adapting my approach to suit different age groups and learning styles. My leadership roles in student societies have involved mentoring and organizing educational events, further honing my ability to communicate complex ideas clearly and empathetically.

Approach to Grinds:

My tutoring style is structured yet flexible—I tailor each session to the student’s goals and learning pace. I believe in building a strong conceptual foundation before moving to application, using real-world examples to make topics relatable. I encourage questions and foster a supportive environment where students feel confident exploring new ideas. Whether it’s breaking down accounting adjustments or preparing for exams, I aim to make learning both effective and enjoyable.
