GCSE: English Literature and English Language lessons

Von 67.62 $ /Std

I am familiar with many examining boards, such as AQA, OCR and Pearson Edexcel.

My goal is to:
- Provide personalised support to help the student overcome their academic challenges, instilling confidence in the topic.
- Strengthen the student's understanding of exam board 'Assessment Objectives', equipping them to approach exams strategically. (Exams are like a game - knowing the rules makes success easier).
- Enhance writing skills by reinforcing PEA structure (Point, Evidence, Explain) for clear and effective responses.
- Offer practical advice on revision techniques, study tips, and tools to boost the student's performance.

I achieved two 9s at GCSE in English Literature and English Language in 2017.
I earned an A in English Literature at A-level in 2019.
Graduated with First-Class MA Honours in English Literature from Edinburgh University in 2024.

Über mich

I am a 23-years-old graduate from Edinburgh University with first-class honours in English Literature. I am eager to leverage the skills I have honed throughout my degree, including critical thinking, writing and literary analysis, in a role as a personal tutor.

I am also well-equipped to tutor Latin language and literature, having studied it until my second year of university. Additionally, at school I achieved an A at A-level and scored 100% UMS across all modules at GCSE.

I am also a passionate artist, having achieved A* at both GCSE and A-level. I further pursued my interest by studying Art at Foundation level after leaving school. I have continued this passion throughout my time at Edinburgh, attending weekly life-drawing classes to further develop my skills

Learn a language through the experience of an international person who interacted with more than 85 nationalities on a daily basis and whose passion is learning foreign languages!!

I am bilingual English - Romanian, have multiple international internship experiences and consider myself a third culture individual.

You will not have to worry about not understanding, I will explain it as simple and easy as possible :)

Native German speaker offering classes for beginners and intermediates. Both for students preparing for exams or university entrance or adults who want to study a new language. Focusing on grammar, conversational skills or German culture and literature - will adjust classes to the needs of the student.

Also happy to teach English as a Second Language or help with exam preparation for English GSCE, A-Level or Pre-U.

I am native in both German and English and have studied both subjects at a higher level throughout my school career. I am now at University at King's College London where my degree is also taught in English.

My aim is to challenge my students yet ensure that they are enjoying the lessons and understanding the content taught!

French is a beautiful and useful language, whether you enjoy the literature and music, need to learn it for work or for school, for fun or for an exam.
Whatever your goal is, we will talk about it together and I will customise the classes to your wishes and needs. I have worked with people of all ages and abilities, from toddlers to retirees, and I will make sure the lesson fits your criteria. I can help you prepare for university, take GCSE or A levels, get you ready for your holiday in France, help you with homework, boost your speaking and writing skills, prepare you for business meetings, get you closer to bilingualism... And more!
I was born and raised in France and moved to England a few years ago for my degree in art history. I am in love with France, its culture and language, and I look forward to sharing it all with you!

This class is designed for anyone who would like to improve their English skills, from beginner to advanced levels. I speak German and Romanian fluently in addition to English, as well as conversational Chinese and Spanish, which may make it easier for some. I tailor the class to suit the individual; after a first session I can assess the student's goal (ie. conversational, business, written, etc. level of English) and create a program to suit this.

Are you having difficulties analysing texts, poems and prose in your IGCSE English, IB English Literature or IB LangLit course? Are you ready to commit an hour every week over the summer to get that 6 or 7 and get into the university of your dreams? Then this is the course for you!

From helping you master the general techniques of literary analysis and teaching you how to compare literary works to answer exam questions on character development, theme and techniques, my course will provide you with all the tools and knowledge you need to dazzle even the most demanding IB examiner. The combination of my passion for writing prose and poetry and my deep understanding of IB marking criteria thanks to great teachers and thoughtful research means that I am uniquely placed to not only explain what your answers were lacking, but also show you how thinking like a writer can help you dramatically improve your answers.

Following a thorough discussion of your individual needs in our first class, I will create for you an engaging but exam-focused programme drawing on my 3-year experience as a tutor and using interactive teaching platforms. Through my course, you will get access to a vast library of resources (at no extra cost) - from official IB textbooks and past papers to teacher guidance - to help you perfect both your analytical and essay-writing skills. And if English is your second language, I will show you what to focus on in your learning so that you could write better than Shakespeare!

Are you ready to turn the page on disappointing grades in the past? Then contact me today!

Hello!!! I would be thrilled to have you for student. We offer Spanish and Italian lessons at a native level and always make sure to keep a high-quality learning. Do you need a last minute lesson to prepare you for an examination? Do you wish to improve your language level rapidly and efficiently? Are you moving soon to Spain or Italy ? Do you need to prepare yourself for an interview? Well, you have chosen the right teacher! :-) I can make you discover the Spanish/Italian culture through the lessons and make sure that you will be able to speak properly Spanish/Italian once in Spain/Italy (or who knows Brazil... ;-) ).

* Students taking their IB/ GCSEs/ A-Levels or other exams can be guaranteed to get the top grades (but you also need to do your homework and revise your notes ;-) ). I can also help students at the university in business, economics...

* Students who are willing to learn Spanish/Italian for fun, let's do it! I can make the lessons fun for you and we can talk about many subjects.

You have got a question? I'm waiting for you to send me a message. No questions? You can directly book your first lesson and I'll do my best to give you your desired time slot. Lessons usually last 50 minutes.

I deliver my teachings with a combination of questioning and inquiry approaches.
An initial assessment of the level of understanding of my students is very important. This enables me know where to start/continue with them. By this I can move them from known to unknown.
It is very important to state that my approach is altogether student-centered. Different students have different needs which are peculiar to them. I believe that student satisfaction and value gained for money is achieved when individualised needs are met.

Philosophy follows wisdom. This class will explore a panorama of philosophical texts through the poetic diction of stories and myths. Offering close-readings and lectures from Heraclitus to Shakespeare, Kierkegaard to Ávila, students are invited to engage and formulate new ideas. Personal requests are very welcome in consultation.
