BryanGP/ FELM/ Game TheoryBryan’s English skills have never been in doubt — he once scored a 47/50 for a GP essay, and was a recipient of RI’s Amber Prize in Y4, awarded to the top English student. Top that with consistently strong grades all-around throughout JC, and you get a dependable person you can entrust your learning with! Econs and GP aside, Bryan would be happy to help you conjugate French verbs, so that your grades don’t become (French) toast. Bryan will be pursuing Economics and Linguistics in university, a decision that would probably make our Economics tutor weep (with joy).
