My favourite question I have ever been asked is “I need to write a letter of complaint. A factory is opening in my town and it is polluting the area. I don’t know where to start…” I love this type of question because it covers fundamental writing skills, while also letting students explore current issues!  As one of my favourite features of askOLA is the whiteboard, as I was able to visualise the structure of a letter and guide the student along each section.

I am the recipient of an MA in English from  Delhi University and am assisting with English on askOLA.

I studied Classics at the University of Warwick and am currently assisting with Mathematics and English on askOLA.

I studied Economics at the University of Groningen and am assisting with Maths and English on askOLA.

My favourite question I have ever been asked is “Can robots have the same “feelings” like humans?” I find this question very interesting as the student tries to explore similarities between a robot and a human. Showing interest and curiosity about the material taught during class!

My favourite question I have received is ‘How can we use statistics to win in board games?’. I love this question because it shows the practical applications of statistics and game theory to our day to day activities and makes things more relevant and tangible. I think my student is now ready to win a game of Monopoly or two!

I study English at the University of Lincoln and am assisting with English on askOLA.

My favourite question I have ever been asked is ‘what is pathetic fallacy?’ I like this question because pathetic fallacy gives human feelings to an object or animal to describe the mood of a situation or story.
