Oxford grad student and highly resourceful tutor with 12 years of experience.

I’m a sought-after tutor with twelve years of teaching and tutoring experience in Canada, the United Kingdom, Jamaica, Czech Republic, Bahrain, and Ghana. I taught at a private school in Bahrain for six years, and for four of those years I was an IBDP Literature/IBDP Language and Literature teacher whose students not only achieved some of the best results in the school, but achieved results that often exceeded IB world averages. With my experience as an IB teacher, tutor, and examiner, I’m highly attuned to the requirements and expectations of the IB programme; I have a well-rounded understanding from the vantage points of teacher and assessor. I’m in possession of excellent IB materials, resources, and exemplars. Many students have earned 6s and 7s under my tutelage. I can transfer this knowledge and expertise to A-level and GCSE tutoring as well. I’m familiar with 11+ entrance exams and have extensive experience preparing students of all ages for different standardised tests. I instil lifelong study skills in my students. As a certified SAT Associate Supervisor who has administered and invigilated over ten sessions, I have expert knowledge on SAT preparedness, content, time management, and essay writing. I've helped numerous students with their UCAS applications, university interview preparation, and personal statements. For those who are English language learners, I have considerable experience teaching English as a second/foreign language. I’ve prepared students for the IELTS and I’ve helped numerous students in Canada and Czech Republic (of varying levels of English proficiency) with conversational English, grammar instruction, and speaking/listening/writing/reading activities. I’m committed to my pupils’ academic excellence by encouraging their intellectual curiosity. My teaching style fosters independent inquiry, and I pride myself on my passionate, engaging, student-led lessons that empower pupils to take ownership of their learning. I encourage my students to analyse and think critically, and my ultimate goal is to provide students with the analytical tools to continue their studies independently with confidence and conviction.

Humanities tutor with experience helping students with dyslexia.

I've always been passionate about education and learning, even though I struggled a lot in school. I was diagnosed with dyslexia at a young age, but with the support of my teachers and tutors (and a bit of hard work!) I managed to get ten GCSE at A*-B and three A levels at A*AA. I went on to study Philosophy and Politics and Queen's University Belfast. My dyslexia means that I work in new and innovative ways and always rise to a challenge. It means that I am understanding to those students who are struggling, as I've been through it and still go though it a lot. Having said that, being dyslexic has lots of positives, such as making me more creative, so I wouldn't change it for the world! At school and beyond I've developed fantastic skills in essay writing and information retention and 'coping mechanisms' to manage my dyslexia. I'm very excited to share what I have learned with you!
