Nick Panteli

English, Maths, Humanities | IELTS | Education MA | Experienced and friendly

I am an enthusiastic tutor who can make learning fun and relevant. I aim to make ideas clear to the student, in order that they can use them fluidly and flexibly, and to encourage genuine understanding. I enjoy teaching and believe learning starts with the learner, adapting ideas and course content to meet their interests and needs. I give children, young people, and adults thorough explanations of concepts and lots of practice to consolidate their learning. I can also teach English as a Foreign Language and Functional Maths to adults. I have experience working with alternative education programmes in England and am widely versed in non-hierarchical learning which involves both student and teacher in consideration of a common object. I have worked with adults for their IELTS exam, students for their A-levels and their GCSE across many educational backgrounds and needs including SEN. Collectively, with TutorFair, Scoodle, Titanium Tutors, I have been a tutor for over 350 hours. Currently, I am an Education student at the UCL IOE, having studied English at Queen Mary, University of London (1.1) before this. Here, I have learned several new qualities in research, teaching and learning.

Tasif Zaman

DBSOnline lessons

Experienced UCAS advisor and A Level tutor

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.

Tahia Ahmed

Passionate tutor who is ready to teach!

Currently studying at University College London. Strong believer of tailored tutoring - every student learns best differently, and it is my job to help them figure out how and adapt my teaching accordingly. I personally view being a tutor as being similar to a mentor, and hope to work with the student to develop skills that not only allow them to conquer specific academic subjects, but which can prove advantageous in many other areas. Ultimately, I strive to bring out the absolute best in my student.

Aloysius Lip

DBSOnline lessons

Hard-working tutor and undergraduate at University of Oxford

I bring three tenants to my tutoring: proficiency, engagement, and dedication. Firstly, students are confident that I know every bit of the material, which is really important in giving them the confidence to ask questions and understand new ideas. Secondly, I constantly engage with my students. I ask them questions, present ideas in relevant examples, and encourage them to problem-solve in detail. Thirdly, I am committed to seeing tangible improvement from my students. That means I'll spend time and patience in communicating critical concepts, whether that means nailing down ideas within lessons, scouting out useful reading, or running overtime, to make sure my students fully learn. Current PPE undergraduate at the University of Oxford. Can give lessons to anyone from GCSE to first-year undergraduate standard, including A-Level and IB. Enjoy teaching any students willing to learn, really good at helping students to 'come out of their shell', that is those that are a bit shy or inexperienced with problem-solving - getting them to analyse and think critically. Format is similar to a tutorial format that one would experience at university.

Alizeh Rahman

A passionate and experienced individual with a genuine love of learning!

I have 6 months experience tutoring in a local secondary school, and look forward to sharing my passion for learning to my students! I have just finished my first year at Oxford University, where I achieved a first overall. My techniques focus on encouraging students to really engage with what they're learning, through having discussions and answering questions. For A Level, the key to succeeding is not simply memorizing your textbooks, but exercising your analytical and critical thinking to go beyond what the syllabus teaches you. I know that many people struggle with learning techniques, and I emphasise active recall to all my students as a scientifically proven method for retaining knowledge. Having studied at Oxford for a year so far, I have gained a number of skills from its unique tutorial system, and hope to employ these techniques in my own teaching.

Beth Squibb

Undergraduate Physics student at the University of Bristol.

Hi, my name is Beth and I’m a current student at Bristol University, about to begin second year. I’m a keen physicist and mathematician and would love to inspire others in these subjects too. With some perseverance I truly believe these subjects can be accessible to everyone! I absolutely love tutoring and sharing my passion with others. As a student myself, I feel I have an understanding of how certain subjects can seem overwhelming and inaccessible in many ways. Through acknowledging these obstacles, I believe I can bring out any student’s academic potential. I’ve taken A Levels in Maths, Physics and Further Maths and am very competent in teaching these subjects up to A-level standard. I am very friendly and have a relaxed and calm approach to learning. I understand that students approach to learning will vary depending on what best suits the individual and with this in mind I can structure online lessons accordingly. I am happy to cover any material from primary school through to GCSE on any science/maths material. I can also do A Level tutoring in maths and physics.
