Hello,

My name is Anna and I am a UK qualified teacher. I specialise in teaching English, English as an Additional Language and Humanities subjects. I have taught in the UK and also in Swiss international schools. and have experience teaching the UK national curriculum and the IB at Middle School & High School level. I have also worked extensively with pre-school and infant school aged children providing extra homework support or EAL lessons.

My classes are flexible based on the needs of my pupils. I understand that everyone learns differently, and it is very important to me to get to know my students as individuals. Normally I would follow the syllabus curriculum, but I am also very happy to tailor lessons on a more individual basis. I make sure that lessons are varied, including quizzes and different activities and also record pupils' progress on a weekly and quarterly basis.

About Me
I am a recently qualified teacher specialising in the Humanities and acquisition of English as an Additional Language.

For me, teaching is both an exciting opportunity and great responsibility. I find it fascinating to work with a variety of different pupils who work and progress at their own rate. I love to be able to support pupils in their own progression towards their goals.

I believe very strongly that young people are incredibly capable and that the unlocking of their own potential can always be achieved with the right level and type of support.

I am friendly and outgoing, I love to ski in the winter and go hiking and swimming during the summer. I've lived in Switzerland for the last 2 years and now I can't imagine being anywhere else!

A step-by-step tuition program that:
Builds self-esteem
Increases resilience
Improves wellbeing
Improves communication
Improves study skills

Resources provided include:
-Mentoring
-3D animation videos to explain concepts
-Worksheets
-Other supplementary materials

Who i've worked with;
-students at prestigious schools across the world (e.g. Eton College, St. Paul's)
-students at the top universities (e.g. Oxford University, Yale University)
-student athletes (e.g. Harvard/Stanford and Team GBR Olympics teams)
-recent graduates at the world's top firms (e.g. Goldman Sachs, Slaughter & May)

This programme has been turned into a workshop and will be delivered at both Oxford and Cambridge universities for first year students.

Every student needs assistance to rebound after the pandemic and lockdowns. I have the expertise to get students back on track.

I have tutored students from the most prestigious schools in the country as well as students internationally.

I have delivered talks at schools on student success and have authored four books on topics such as productivity, time-management, self-discipline & confidence.

I founded the first online personal development academy for teenagers based around a holistic approach to learning. I also create wellbeing & mental health resources for young people at schools and universities.

My role is not only in preparing students for the future but it is giving them the confidence to shape it. My objective is to inspire, motivate and cultivate ambitious young students who have the ability to identify and fulfil their aspirations.

I combine five interlinked components that, if worked on in tandem, can drastically change a students life for the better and aid them in becoming the pioneers of the future.

These 5 strands are:
1) Mindset
2) Wellbeing Management
3) Study Skills
4) Life Skills
5) Leadership Development

I place a special emphasis on personal development and this is what makes me different. I believe it is possible to equip students with the mindset and skillset to radically alter their lives for the better.

My instruction goes beyond this by including study skills such as note-taking, memory improvement techniques, speed-reading, and effective revision into its program. These skills will stay with pupils and enlighten their entire academic tenure.

Finally, my role is also about offering guidance to students in terms of their current issues, academic future and potential career paths. My educational system is a result of years of lessons I myself learned progressing through the academic arena all the way to university level. In addition, it encompasses all the research I have conducted in self-improvement, effective study skills and successful leadership. These methods have been tested and proven successful. I hope to impart this knowledge to the next generation and watch them do great things with it.

Yours sincerely,
Ash
