Chrissie
English Tutor for Children and Teens Needing Help with Reading (and analysis), Essay Writing, and Exams
Hi! I'm Chrissie, and I would love to help you with your English studies. Whether you just need to pass an exam or are really interested in literature I can help! Hopefully, after having some lessons with me, you will have an increased interest or love for the subject. I work in a very friendly, enthusiastic and encouraging manner and my approach to teaching and guiding students is to facilitate self learning and reflection. If it works for the student, I will encourage them to take studying into their own hands and empower them to tell me what they want to learn and will try my best to give some guidance. I will teach mainly online, however if you live in central London and you cannot, for whatever reason, do tutorials online I am open to a discussion about meeting in person.

Social Psychology : Obedience to Authority and its implications
Social psychology is a reoccurring form of study in our everyday lives that plays a huge role in our interactions, thinking, and behaviour. But why do condemn certain laws and abide by the rules? How does our psychological thinking impact our actions in social order? We'll be diving into real-world situations & looking into interesting theories that explain this phenomenon, looking into the popular Milgram's study and how obedience towards authority varies across cultures. If you're a GCSE or A-level student heading for a career in psychology, this is just the class for you!

SSAT and ACT Test Prep, All Sections and Levels, High Scores
Hi, I'm Natalie, and I have been working as a private tutor for over 13 years. I help students prepare for all sections and levels of the SSAT, as well as all sections of the ACT. *Middle Level SSAT, and Upper Level SSAT: In addition to reviewing SSAT verbal and SSAT math concepts, students master analogies, build their vocabulary knowledge, sharpen their reading skills, and learn the art of solving word problems. I also guide them through the SSAT essay/short story section so their writing really shines and sets them apart from other applicants. Whether students invest months of time in their test prep or spend a few lessons with me to improve their test performance, they raise their scores and become better test takers. One of my most successful students raised his overall score by 86 points after only 6 lessons, and 2 other students scored in the 98th percentile for highly competitive schools! *ACT: I’ve helped many students successfully prepare for all sections of the ACT! I use different techniques to approach each section so they can score high. In addition to working through practice tests with me and on their own, they also complete practice homework outside of lessons. We use only the best resources and materials. My most recent student reached a composite score of 35 after a 7-point increase in his ACT Math score after just 8 lessons! I focus on concept review, strategies and approach, and time management techniques. Committed students score in the top percentiles and are admitted to the schools of their choice. Contact me today to see how we can get your test prep started on the right foot!

Marina
IB Tutor (Essay writing, Personal Statements, EE, English Literature, Lang & Lit, Tok, Philosophy, Art, Theatre, Environmental Systems)
The main subjects I have experience tutoring in are: IB English Literature, IB English Language and Literature,Theory of Knowledge, IB Philosophy, IB Theatre, IB Art, IB Environmental Systems, and Personal Statements for University Application. In my experience tutoring, I’ve worked with over 70 students and I’ve been fortunate enough to see their final overall scores surpass their predicted scores by an average of 5 total points on the IB 24-40 point scale. I’ve also had the joy of building personal relationships with these students and have really appreciated not only getting to watch them grow in ability, but also in confidence as we work together. My primary focus as an IB tutor is supplying my students with the necessary skills to develop their ideas and arguments with regards to their internal assessments, and to aid them in preparing for their exams. When it comes to working on their internal assessments, we focus on strengthening weak points within their arguments and establishing a thorough structure that makes sense to the student, so that in any circumstance they feel that they have a firm grasp on the subject they are exploring. In regards to preparing them for their examinations, we focus on slow-burn study-prep. Which includes: essay structure, how to approach a text, various methodologies involved in the syllabus, and practice papers that we dissect as a duo to keep the students as involved in the learning process as possible and ensure that as they finish their experience with the IB, they retain the knowledge and skills they have learned long after their examinations are over. In the case of Personal Statements, I focus on aiding the students in establishing a written piece which accurately encompasses who they are, while also placing them in the best light possible. We focus on effectively communicating their course choices, extracurriculars, interests in the program they are applying for, and why they would be the perfect applicant for the University’s consideration. As a tutor, I believe it is my job to not only teach my students their subjects and the skills to approach their coursework, but also give them a safe space to make mistakes and learn. I aim to establish an environment where students feel comfortable asking me questions, knowing that I won't make them feel silly for needing help and will instead support them on their journey to becoming more confident in their studies.
