I chose my GCSE options in year 8 and started them in year 9. It was then I felt like I had to decide what career I want to go in. I knew I enjoyed teaching as I've done a lot mentoring; I also knew that Religious Studies was one of my most favourite subjects. Really, I loved (still do) cooking the most so a career in catering was also something I wanted but then I decided that from my experience it's not the most stable career and I am an academic. My parents suggested I go into law so I focussed on that. I got 18 A* - Cs for GCSE. I got a scholarship into Oxford for a pre-degree law course which I did along side my A-levels. For AS I did German, Philosophy and Ethics, History and English language and literature. The latter 2 subjects I did not do that well in or enjoy as much so I dropped them in A2 and picked up a full A-level in IT. (I was also doing an EPQ but I had a lot of things going on in my personal life so I dropped that because I had a lot of commitments with my family and I was still going to Oxford too). I got a reduced offer to do law at Oxford but I decided I didn't want to do that anymore nor be in that environment again. I chose to do philosophy and R.S. and that's what I am doing now. I took a gap year though after my A-levels and I worked in a school as pupil assistant and mentor (And I've been tutoring since I was 15). Sorry for the essay!

A dedicated, experienced and creative tutor. I'm currently an HR prifessional with a background in mainstream education and social enterprises. I completed a BSc in Politics and Philosophy at the London School of Economics. Tutoring Experience: I've been tutoring GCSE and A levels in Maths and Government and Politics respectively since 2008 one to one. Having worked as a Graduate Achievement Coach at Bethnal Green Academy for two years, I helped students prepare for GCSE maths examinations,Sixth Form students apply to university and coach young people to make informed decisions about their future. In 2014/15 I also tutored two International Relations undergraduate students from Queen Mary University (University of London) My previous tutee from First Tutors took AS Religious Studies as an additional subject outside of her school curriculum. She achieved an A grade having only studied with me for 2 hours a week over 4-5 months. My students have consistently performed in their examinations and benefited overall academically from my interaction with them. Tutoring Approach: I'm also experienced in helping my students develop key study skills and unlock their potential by focusing on also developing their motivation and key skills such as time management and effective planning. I believe that the best way to develop a student's academic skills is to empower them rather then make them dependent on tuition, thus I strive to help them help themselves, by teaching them key skills that will be useful throughout their academic career as well as providing support in the desired subject area.

I began my career as a teacher in 2011 when I was hired on a graduate training programme at Dixons Kings secondary school in Bradford. At this point I had just completed my first MA and commenced training as a humanities teacher working across KS3 and KS4. Upon leaving Kings I completed a CELTA teaching qualification and specialised in English language which lead to the start of my career as an English teacher. For the past 5 years I have taught English at many levels including ESOL, primary and secondary. I specialise in GCSE and A level English and offer services in exam preparation and course work. My wife and I have been tutoring Maths and English from our home for years. I also cover tuition in Sociology, Psychology, Religious Studies and Philosophy to degree level and currently lecture (on a sessional basis) in Social Work, Sociology and Philosophy at the University of Bradford. I provide A level and undergraduate support on essay writing, assessment, presentation skills and proof reading.

Being a keen music enthusiast and having had the opportunity to learn a variety of instruments, my role as a piano teacher is something I thoroughly enjoy. Having played the piano for 14 years (classically trained with 1 year experience in jazz) and teaching according to the Associated Board of the Royal School of Music (ABRSM) for 1 year, I adopt an idiographic teaching method in an attempt to best accommodate all learning styles for all ages. As such, the foundation of lessons can range from traditional to more contemporary and creative formats, all of which are dependent on what`s most efficient, enjoyable and pragmatic for each pupil when learning both the practical and theoretical elements of music. Taking a committed and dedicated approach, my ultimate goal is to ensure each pupil is provided with the necessary tools and knowledge-base to progress with the piano whilst simultaneously taking a growing interest and positive attitude towards learning. I also teach Philosophy and Ethics (WJEC board) as well as Psychology (AQA board), two subjects I feel passionately about and thoroughly enjoyed learning for my A-levels. Like piano, I take a very similar teaching method, adapting lesson formats to best accommodate the needs of each pupil, whilst ensuing each student is provided with the appropriate equipment allowing them to apply their knowledge to a variety of real-world scenarios and current global affairs.

Thank you for reading and hopefully we will be in touch soon. Andrew.

Hey, here’s a little about me! I was born in Rome (Italy) but have lived and studied in Syndey (Australia), Dubai (UAE) and in the UK - so I’m used to and have experience in different curricula and approaches to study that I’ll be glad to help you with! I completed my IB Diploma in Dubai and applied to UK Universities, so I’ll also be able to walk you through any IB-related issue as well as the UCAS application process if that’s what you need help with (e.g. personal statements, interview prepping, etc..) My undergraduate degree was in Philosophy and Psychology, two subjects I’m extremely passionate about. I am very easy to talk to, and aim to establish a positive environment and relationship with my students, so that the learning environment can be maximised! I speak Italian, English and Spanish and I am a TEFL certified teacher as well.
