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.

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.

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.
