/ Lindsey S.
I have a BA (Hons) degree in English Literature and a Certificate in Education qualification. I have also passed a TEFL course. When I taught Functional
Skills Englsih at the Isle of Wight college, students belonging to one of my classes were the first in the college to pass their examinations in that subject.
I have been teachin, online, for over three years and, in so doing, I have taught students from all over the world. I have helped some students to improve
their predicated GCSE English Language and Literature grades and I have taught English as a second language to students in China.
Online British Sign Language Lessons
Passionate to help the future in as many ways as possible, easily approachable and always willing to help! Patience and kindness is always a must.
Hi all! I'm Bengi, I am a warm and attentive tutor who loves books, language, and exploring books and language! I hold a First Class BA Degree in English and American Literature from Goldsmiths. My MA from UCL focused on modern literature and I received a Distinction for my dissertation on Deaf poetry.
Throughout my academic studies I have been learning British Sign Language, and currently I am working towards my Level 3 qualification. I also hold a TEFL certificate. I have been working as a Primary School TA for 5 years now, and have experience with children across all abilities and with a variety of SEN.
I have provided both group and individual tutoring for 4 years in English, and more recently, VR and NVR. My tutoring style is dynamic and creative. I am keen on making my own resources to appeal to the children's interests; as well as quick to recognise when a child is disengaged, and change the approach of the session.
I am a hearing aid user myself and have first-hand experience of communication difficulties, so I am highly considerate of each child's individual needs. I have a strong understanding of the Primary School curriculum and exam expectations.
I have a solid dance background (since the age of 5, through to GCSE and A-Level). Since graduating from the Laban CAT scheme, I have written dance criticism for Dance Art Journal.
Thank you for reading my profile and I hope to hear from you soon!
I can teach these subjects in English, French and British Sign Language. I am employed as a support/activity worker and sales assistant. I am also a volunteer online tutor with RefuNet and a volunteer Brownie leader. I have a degree in human biology and an HND in French. From September, I will be completing PGCE in Primary Education. My hobbies and interests include creative writing, researching the Titanic and collecting related memorabilia, voluntary and charity work, listening to music and most forms of arts/crafts. I am based in Southport but I am willing to travel up to 1 mile. I have a vast amount of experience with all ages and abilities. Regularly, I babysit 2 boys, one of whom has autism and the other has ADHD.
