I have a range of experience from several roles I have held, but I'd love to give you a brief overview of my qualifications. I finished my GCSEs in 2021 and achieved 9s in both English Language and Literature, and a Distinction in my English Language Speaking Exam. Writing essays is an aspect of my education that I have always found tiresome and dull, like most students, but it can become a stress-free aspect of GCSE and A-Level if you know what the examiner is looking for. This is what I will be trying to teach to my students. For my A-Levels I attended Exeter College and studied English Literature, Classical Civilisations, and Philosophy. I also did an Extended Project Qualification. I was proud to achieve AAB with an A in EPQ when I graduated in 2023, and am excited to pass on the revision and essay-writing skills I learned during the two years I did my A-Levels. I am currently volunteering as a Teaching Assistant at my local primary school. Through this role I have significantly developed my ability to teach KS1, KS2, and even KS3 children, as well as dyslexic children. I have learned to be kind and patient with them, while paying attention to what makes the child an individual. Since every child learns differently, I take time to figure out how best to tutor every child. Not only this, but I am being given expert advice from some of the best primary school teachers in the country, who I have the utmost respect for as most of them taught me when I attended the school. From the ages of 17-18 I worked at Build-A-Bear Workshop in Exeter, so I developed my skills working with children of all ages. Finally, I was lucky enough to be a shortlisted Oxford candidate for English Language and Literature last year, so I am happy to help with personal statement writing, interview prep, or even ELAT preparation. I hope you have found my brief description informative, but please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. :) |
