Over
I am a fully qualified teacher, having worked in UK schools in Suffolk and Northumberland. In addition, I have also taught overseas, including Shanghai, Spain & Switzerland.

My students exam results both in the UK, China, Spain & Switzerland are exemplary, a result of my knowledge and understanding of the exam board requirements, the depth of knowledge of my subject and of my ability to engage and form relationships with my students.

I am an examiner for Cambridge and IBDP English, enabling me to understand current exam board grading and to remain up to date with ongoing changes within the examination systems.

I teach English and English Literature and have previously taught RE, Humanities and Drama. With a solid academic grounding in my subject I am also approachable and friendly and find it easy to relate to pupils that are disinterested or struggling with English in the classroom.

My classroom experience encompasses children between the ages of 11 and 18 (KS3, 4 & 5). This includes middle school, GCSE and IGCSE, A Level and International Baccalaureate Diploma.

My tutoring experience has covered ages ranging from 3 to 17. Tutoring has involved work in a Chinese preschool with children between 3 and 6. Currently I am online tutoring two 17 year old IBDP English A Language and Literature students and a GCSE English Language student.

I am currently teaching ages 13 to 18 which covers SEN, low, middle and high ability GCSE classes, both English Language and English Literature, and also AS (6th form) English.

I have been working as a tutor for over 20 years. My experience includes working with children with behavioural issues as well as children with various SEN, from autism to dyslexia. I have also taught children for whom English is an additional language. My last tutee (who found me through this site) was an A2 (A Level) student who needed help with exam techniques and practise.

I treat each pupil I teach as an individual, tailoring my approach to suit them after a generalised beginning to enable me to assess them and their needs as well as their likes and dislikes. A recent success involved enabling a student to improve their GCSE grade from an E to a B.

I can assess using both the national curriculum criteria or IB English criteria to enable parents to track their child's progress. If wished, I can also encompass exam practise and techniques and set mock exams in a less pressured environment.

For pupils that are struggling with English in a formal capacity I am able to approach the subject from a more informal and enjoyable angle, to enable them to re-engage and overcome obstacles that may have previously seemed insurmountable, whether due to disinterest, difficulty or an SEN.

English is a subject that should be enjoyable and I enable my pupils to discover this.

I specialise in English (British & American) tuition for native and non-native speakers of all ages, and have experience working with:
• young children learning English for the first time
• primary- and secondary-school students studying the English language and its literatures
• adult professionals and seniors wishing to improve their language skills, or develop pronunciation or presentational skills

I have two degrees in English language and literature (B.A. and Mst) from the University of Oxford, and I am also a graduate of the International Baccalaureate (I.B.) Diploma program. I've developed a creative approach in my sessions with students that involves applying a student's particular talents and interests (regardless of subject) in the process of language acquisition, along with the simultaneous development of critical skills like close and careful reading, argumentation, written style, and effective communication.

I am versed in the requirements and intricacies of a range of national and international diploma programs. When working with students supplementing an academic syllabus, my goal is always to position them to succeed in the assignments and assessments laid out by a primary instructor.

Have you dreamt of reading Shakespeare and making sense of his words ? Did you know that some Shakespearian plays are easier to tackle than others ? In this class we will be looking at one of Shakespeare's fantasy comedies or one of his tragedies. We will read the play together and discuss the usage of words, as well as its historical contexts. We will study the most important passages in the way they have influenced world culture. I encourage my students to memorise these passages by heart, a gratifying experience.

I was a Dutch teacher in secondary education for many years. Currently I have emigrated and I am looking for work to do from home. There are many students who find Dutch boring. They are also right about that. However, it is a compulsory subject for which you better pass. Together with the student, I set realistic goals that we will then achieve. I will provide support and explanation until the achieved goal has been achieved.

I myself work a lot in English and can also guide non-native speakers in learning Dutch.

My prices depend on the financial situation of the student. Someone who has just moved to the Netherlands has less to spend than a student whose parents both have jobs. The prices are therefore in consultation.

Hello everyone! I hold a doctorate in Italian, have been teaching Italian for 5 years and hold a CELTA teaching qualification. I've been preparing students for the A-Levels and GCSE (language + literature). I can prepare you for specific examinations, language lessons in general or teach you Italian for business. The lessons are for everyone, whatever their age or level (children to adults). I will make sure that you discover the Italian culture through the lessons, learn the correct pronunciation and of course learn some grammar. I am open to your needs and can speak a few languages to make sure you understand fully the lessons (of course, we’ll try to use mostly Italian in all our lessons depending on your level).

I can’t wait to meet my new students! 😊

Queridos estudiantes,

Tengo el placer de estar con ustedes y llevarlos a conocer la ríqueza del idioma Español, un idioma internacional, cálido y amable.
En mi viaje con ustedes buscaré ofrecerles lo mejor de mis conocimientos con una dosis de creatividad para hacer llegar hasta nuestras coordenadas intelectuales la expresión y la fluencia de este idioma nuevo.
Desarrollaremos juntos objetivos, conseguiremos juntos sortear dificultades en nuestro trayécto y confiaremos recíprocamente en nuestra vocación, aquella vocación que nos lleva a recorrer un camino motivados y llenos de esperanza. La comunicación es imprescindible y nosotros como seres sociales necesitamos de ella para entender nuestro legado con nuestra comunidad, aquella misma que identificaremos a través de un nuevo lenguaje.
Estoy segura que tanto ustedes como yo estamos deseando comenzar esta nueva etapa en nuestras vidas con la decisión firme de forjarnos positivas experiencias y recuerdos agradables.
