Oxbridge Entry Tutoring for English Language and Literature: Personal Statement, ELAT and Interview Prep

Àpd 587.73 CNY /h

I am an ex-Oxbridge student (I studied at Somerville College, Oxford, 2020-2023) offering tutoring and preparation aid for anyone thinking of applying to Oxford or Cambridge. I offer help getting to grips with the ELAT paper as well as help understanding how to prepare for your Oxbridge interviews. We can even start from the beginning and work on your personal statement.
Oxbridge applications have a very specific style to them that is often quite different to the teaching of English at most secondary schools. With specialised tutoring from a successful applicant, you can feel more confident about this process! My current success rate with Oxbridge applicants is 100%, however it is important to say that entry can never be guaranteed.

11+ Verbal Reasoning: Synonyms and Antonyms for Vocabulary Victory!

411.41 CNY /h

For both the 11+ and 13+ exams in England, synonyms and antonyms are a key way in which your child will show their ability in the verbal reasoning paper. Following the content of Christine Draper's C.E.M. content book (in blue), I conduct a course between 5-15 sessions grouping these words into easy-to-remember themes.
You'll study word groups such as descriptors, movement, weather and more. These classes lay a particular emphasis on the practical and creative use of vocabulary because what's the point of learning words if you don't know how to use them in an interesting way!
We will practice creative writing, fun crosswords and more, as well as looking at the set question types in the 11+exams.

GSCE and A-Level English Literature Preparation: for ages 11-18

411.41 CNY /h

In these classes we will study one or more GCSE/A-Level texts in detail. Over a two-week period we will look at the themes, context, characters and criticism of a GCSE/A-Level text and work on how these parts of a piece of literature can be brought together for an examination answer.
The text(s) studied can be what you are going to be examined on, as a refresher or extra revision help. The text(s) could also be other pieces of literature on your exam board that you aren't going to study, as a way to expand your reading and become familiar with GCSE/A-level texts. Either way, we will practice thinking and writing critically so that you can blow the examiners away for your examinations.

I am a tutor of Italian and English as a foreign/second language. I had the opportunity to teach in different contexts with multicultural groups of students from many countries and backgrounds. I am currently teaching Italian to individual students and corporate clients with different language requirements and purposes. I have also conducted a preparation course for Italian GCSE and A level exams in London.

I teach to all levels and ages using a communicative and student-centred approach. My lessons are very interactive and focused on real life and cultural situations.
I care about my students’ learning progress and achievements and I am keen to guide them in a friendly, dedicated and respectful manner. Moreover, one of my main goals as a teacher is to enable my students to enjoy the experience of communicating, thinking and reacting in a foreign language.

Actor of formation having lived abroad (London and Toronto), I love English and I would like everyone to know how to speak it! There is indeed a delay in France with respect to English, which is remembered is spoken worldwide and is the first language of communication! And this comes mainly from the lack of confidence in the oral. That is why with you I will work above all on the ease and the confidence but also on the pronunciation and the rhythm.

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.

As an English teacher, I design my classes to accommodate learners of all levels and ages. My goal is to help students improve their skills in reading, writing, speaking, and understanding English.

Beyond the basics, I also prioritize teaching colloquialisms and reducing accents for those interested in sounding more natural and fluent in their speech. For students who are looking to improve their business English skills, I provide specialized lessons that focus on industry-specific language and terminology.

Throughout my classes, I strive to create a positive and engaging learning environment. I encourage my students to participate actively, ask questions, and practice what they've learned through class discussions and exercises. Ultimately, my aim is to help students develop a lifelong love for the English language and the confidence to communicate effectively in any situation.

French experienced and qualified native tutor.

My primary goal is to understand what your needs are to help you feel comfortable speaking and writing French by working on pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar and conversational skills. Together we will set specific targets depending on those needs, your interests and language level while having fun learning.

I will quickly identify your weak areas and adapt my teaching methods according to each student be it on your business premises or your home. Lessons are usually task-based and centred around practical functions.

By the end of our sessions, you should feel equipped and confident to continue to progress on your learning journey outside of our classes with the resources and strategies I will provide you.

I specialise in tutoring French and/or English for school just as well for higher education levels or different age groups. As a native speaker in both languages and as a linguaphile who took interest in learning other languages such as Spanish and Arabic, I am aware of the struggles that might come with attempting to learn a new language. For my students, I would start off by evaluating where they are at in terms of their level of speaking just as well as writing, in order to know what to work on and what they've already mastered. I would provide homework, just as well as challenges to place them in real life situations where they would have to use their skills and knowledge. In addition to this, providing a feedback on what they've accomplished, what needs further improvement and work.
