I'm a qualified TESOL English language teacher with experience teaching in class or privately. I offer a personal service that will help you improve and understand English, including pronunciation, comprehension, grammar, punctuation, writing and listening exercises, plus help with IELTS practice. I can teach online and in person if you live in my area which is Worthing, West Sussex.

Learn to speak English like the English do. As a Dutch person, you are often quickly recognizable by your accent and incorrect use of words, expressions, etc. By speaking 'native English' you can often get something done faster, you are accepted faster and in the USA you often have an advantage if you speak 'Queen's English'.

I have been living in the UK for 25 years and in the early years I experienced how difficult it is to really get through to the English if you do not speak the language at their level. You remain a 'foreigner' and therefore an outsider.

As a Dutch person, you quickly think that you speak English well. The English that is taught in the Netherlands is outdated and is often taught by university graduates who have never spent more than a few months in an English-speaking environment, so they have never picked up the real spoken language. You don't really learn a language from a book, you have to experience it or learn it from someone who knows the finer points.

I am a professional translator, a member of the NGTV, TEFL certified and have an international business background.

I am a native english speaker from the USA. I have been living in Brighton getting a masters degree in community psychology. I have studied in America and the UK and am familiar with both education systems. My goal is to help any person who wishes to improve their english language skills, both written and spoken. My schedule is flexible. We can work together to develop your skills at a pace that is right for you. Any age, background, language level, all are welcome.

I am a student achieving high levels in the given subjects, I love children and teaching is a great way for me to revise for my upcoming GCSE exams! English is my first language and I have been achieving level 8s in the subject and have achieved level 9 in both Religious Studies and History.

My name is Lucy and I live in West Sussex. I am fascinated by languages and communication and I have gained a wealth of experience in teaching and learning French, Spanish and English.

In 2013 I achieved my Level 5 Trinity College London Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL). I have have 8 years of classroom and private tutoring experience. My expertise is grammar: I am very skilled in this area having spent a lot of time studying. I have also gained plenty of experience in helping students with their speaking and listening skills. I am qualified to teach adults and teenagers, and have also gained experience in providing foreign primary school children with an introduction to the English language.

In 2017 I graduated with a 2:1 in French and Hispanic studies. In my third year at University I studied and worked abroad in Paris and Madrid. In Paris I was the English teacher of a small private school and I was in charge of designing the curriculum, teaching all the lessons, and creating an end of term assessment. In Madrid I was self employed and privately tutored several students with lessons tailored to their requirements. For example, one student wanted to improve conversation skills for her job as she was required to communicate with clients in the UK, so we focused on business conversation skills in English.

In June 2020 I will qualify as a Secondary Teacher of French and Spanish, teaching up to A level (Key Stage 5). I am currently on a SCITT PGCE course (School Centred Initial Teacher Training) which means I have been in the classroom since September gaining plenty of experience teaching the languages. Before beginning my ITT (Initial Teacher Training) year, I completed a 6 month Subject Knowledge Enhancer which involved studying the different modules of the GCSE and A level syllabuses and preparing a presentation on teaching each module to a class. This course has helped me understand exactly what is expected of the students during Key Stages 4 and 5 and I received excellent feedback on my achievements.

If you are studying French, Spanish or English, I can help you to succeed! We will tailor my class and lessons to your individual needs. Whether you want to build confidence in speaking and communicating, or need some extra help with grammar/ written work, I can help.
Please contact me for more information.

Graduate with a first class degree from the University of Manchester in English Literature and American Studies available to help you achieve the best grades possible. In-depth, elite-level tutoring where not only will I work to ensure your knowledge and understanding of set texts goes beyond the superficial, but I will map your progress and development so that you may constantly improve.

Whatever your needs or your age, from primary school literacy to degree-level Shakespeare and poetic analysis, I'm here to help improve your skill with text and essay-writing. I cover poetic terminology, literary structure and the interpretation of abstract work, as well as how to write convincing essays at GCSE, A-Level or BA level.

This class is for primary students who need a hand with their school work, whether it is help with understanding a subject, homework, reading or handwriting.

I can also help with SATs preparation - the first 'real' exams can be daunting and I can offer assistance with exam technique or subject knowledge!

As a tutor I aim to implement a style centred on combining an innate understanding of both the historical content and the requirements of the exam criteria. I intend to achieve this by relating the complex and tricky concepts in a manner which is easy to follow. Ultimately, my objective is to make students feel valued, by providing them with an interactive and positive learning environment whereby they feel engaged and challenged each and every session!

Approach to Teaching
– I favor a structured approach. I devise lesson plans in advance of every lesson, catering to the student's specific needs.
– Academic lessons tend to be structured around specific sections of the syllabus, or particular topics that students require help with.
– I employ a seminar-style format. I flesh out ideas with the aid of quotations, other audio-visual resources, and analytical commentary. I structure my lesson plans with a view to providing gaps, in which students are able to ask questions about the content. I am also happy for students to interrupt the flow of the lesson if a burning question arises.
– I use Powerpoint to provide students with a variety of resources and visual stimuli.

Lesson Structure
– Academic lessons tend to be 45 minutes to an hour in length, but I can adapt my teaching schedule to provide students with additional support if needed.
– Typically violin lessons range in length from 30 minutes to an hour, but I am flexible: I am more than happy to devise a lesson structure that caters to a student's requirements.

Academic Credentials
– I am a candidate for a Ph.D. in Music at the University of Cambridge.
– I hold an MPhil in Music from the University of Cambridge, where I specialized in Historical Musicology and Musical Aesthetics.
– I have a first-class music degree (74.4%) from the University of Manchester, where I won three Hargreaves Prizes for Academic Achievement.
– I have worked as an Assistant Music Teacher, which involved teaching Music A-Level students.

Professional Credentials
– I have worked as a private violin teacher for 7 years (since I was 17). I have taught a variety of students, from beginners starting their instrumental training to more advanced performers looking to improve their technical facility and performance skills.
– I have an extensive portfolio of performing credits on documentary films. Recent highlights include the BAFTA-nominated score for the BBC docuseries on Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein 'House of Maxwell' (BBC2, 2022), and 'Sir Alex Ferguson: Never Give In' (Netflix) (Passion Pictures / Universal Pictures) (2021).
– I have extensive experience as an orchestral musician and chamber music performer. I led the University of Cambridge Experimental Music Ensemble (CUEME) when I was studying for my master's degree at the University of Cambridge. I also led the University of Manchester Chamber Orchestra in the second year of my undergraduate degree at the University of Manchester and premiered a good deal of new music with The Eskandari String Quartet.
– I have performed at the West Road Concert Hall (University of Cambridge), the Lee Tseng Hall (Wolfson College Cambridge), the Buxton International Festival, the Manchester International Festival, and Bridgewater Hall.
– I achieved a distinction (92%) in my ATCL Diploma in violin performance, and a First (78%) in the final violin recital of my undergraduate degree.

Expected Ability of Students
– Academic level: Beginner through to GCSE, A-Level, and Undergraduate Music and History of Philosophy

English Language and Literature can be a tough GCSE to crack. So much information and abstract concepts to put on a page. I can teach you the formulas and key knowledge you need to write a successful paper and achieve your potential. I used these formulas myself and they have carried me from my GCSE’s all the way to my degree level.

Whether a pupil is aiming for top grades, or needs an extra boost to pass, my GCSE English Literature class provides personalised support to help children fulfil their potential. Covering all aspects of the GCSE English Literature curriculum (and all exam boards), my resources and knowledge will enhance students understanding of both content and exam technique. Aiming to engage students in their given texts, I use interactive methods and my effervescent personality to build my students confidence, ensuring they are fully prepared for their exams. With a passion for helping children succeed and English Literature, my enthusiasm is contagious and this is reflected in astronomical progress my students make.
