Experiencia / Calificaciones

My passion for learning has led me to take Pre-U courses in English and history, instead of the ordinary A Level syllabus. This means that my courses include much more independent study, including an extended personal dissertation in each on a subject of my choice. It greatly improved my research, time management and referencing skills. As the Politics Prefect at James Allen's Girls' School, I work closely with the politics department to edit and update the syllabus for politics and citizenship lessons in years 7-9 and promote taking the subject at A Level. Furthermore, as the mental health first aid leader, I teach the younger students a set course and assess their abilities to become an official first aider. I use my excellent time-management skills to organise the lessons, presenting skills to teach to content and administration skills to update the school board with the progress of the project. As a Holocaust Memorial Ambassador, I organise assemblies and resources within school to educate younger students, and coordinated with various individuals within the trust to put on an evening fund-raiser including a survivor testimony.

In this course, you will learn a range of linguistic methods and learn the terms used for describing a specific aspect of language or phenomenon (lexis, morphemes, and 'telegraphic stage' to give a few examples). The course requires you to explore your own data using quantitative and qualitative analysis (eg: how frequently are slang phrases used? Are there new auxiliaries being created?). No historical linguistics or literature is involved, but language change or specific traits will be sampled via your own data collection (if this is what is demanded in your course).

As many students need to present a "year abroad" dissertation at University level (3rd year in the UK of a Modern Languages or Linguistics Undergraduate course) I can help you to research and structure your year abroad work, both in English (Linguistics) and Romance languages (French, Italian, Spanish). The topics that have arisen from recent discussions with students relate to French Caribbean writing, Italian resistance and reprisals in Rome (Fosse Ardiatine), and Spanish Etica franquista in films (among others).

I am a passionate History, Sociology and Philosophy teacher (both ancient and modern). Fluent in Italian, Spanish and English I have taught History and Sociology in Madrid, Barcelona, North Italy and London. I can also teach Politics. Outside of the classroom, I have written and directed school plays, organized the school journals and the olympic games of philosophy.

My students are of differing ages and stages of proficiency, so I have plenty of experience teaching at all levels. I consider myself a friendly and patient teacher, concerned above all else with the all round development of my students' capacity for comprehensive thought. I have a strong belief in the unification of knowledge and am always striving to incorporate seemingly disparate branches of learning into a broader horizon in order to provide my students with a sufficiently complete picture.

Availability
The length and frequency of sessions can be determined by the student's requirements and availability.

The first lesson
For any given first session I like to get to know the student, find out where they're at in their course of study, and see what their current working methods are like. Usually, talking about the current piece of homework, the next upcoming exam, or due assignment is a great way to gauge their requirements, assess where my help is most needed, and thus collaboratively devise a joint programme of work.

My teaching method
I bring a broad-based interdisciplinary knowledge to a range of subjects. This allows the opportunity to consider new ideas and to place different perspectives in conversation with each other, which is an instrumental skill for improving academic writing.

A lesson with me will be interactive and lucid. I am adaptable as all students are different, so I will constantly monitor and remain attentive to our learning objectives.

My teaching methods vary, but as a rule I start with an in depth account of the subject, taking care to ground it contextually, and then proceed to a discussion of the main points. Whether the lessons take more of a dialogical form or the more typical lecture type format depends on the needs and preferences of the student.

The lessons will be focused on studying techniques, written exercises with supervision and recalling techniques. We will work not just to close any gaps but also help the student in learning how to optimize private study.

For students who need to get up to speed with content, I can offer sessions where I present you with ideas and new ways of understanding the topic.

I approach each topic according to the immediate and long-range needs of the student, whether they require help in comprehending their topic, in preparing for exams, or in planning, executing, and proofing written work. Depending on the desire and temperament of the student, I can gear my lessons either towards cramming and exam survival or towards the nurturing of lifelong learning.

My general policy is also to be flexible with what the student needs of me. For example, my payment is for the hour, however I am happy to look over work and send comments. My fee is not just one hour as I work with the student in all aspects of their learning via e-mails outside the lessons.

Pushing forward
If you're enthralled by your subject and wish to pursue it further, beyond the bounds of learning outcomes and assessment, then I can cultivate that passion in you. If you want to improve your critical or creative writing, I can help you articulate your vision and present it according to high standards; along the way I will instill good practices that will help you in any such task.

The early stages of education are essential to academic growth and understanding as they learn how to navigate the English language, expand their vocabulary and increase their knowledge of correct grammatical rules and spelling.

Sign your child up to this class for a fun and exciting learning experience where they can learn how to do all of the aforementioned and more!

A great way to spend the summer preparing for the next stage of their life or even during term time to get those extra precious hours in ;)

I discovered my passion for education during my final year of secondary school. It all began when I became a tutor for a student with dyslexia who was struggling with English and Maths. With the help of a caring teacher who trusted in my abilities, I was able to help my student in her progress and growth for over two years. This experience showed me how much I love teaching and inspiring students to reach their full potential.

As I further explored this field, I welcomed more students into my schedule. I customised my teaching approach to each individual's unique goals and challenges. By tapping into their interests, personality, and learning pace, I create interactive and enjoyable classes that infuse the joy of learning into every session.

Many students view learning as a boring task; as a tutor, I aim to break down these barriers and show that learning and overcoming challenges can be exciting and is a great way to boost our self-confidence.

Whether you're a young learner aiming or an adult seeking to polish your language skills, I am here to be your guide, mentor, and biggest supporter on your educational journey!
